Neeko Mid Lane Matchups

Neeko lore:

Hailing from a long lost tribe of vastaya, Neeko can blend into any crowd by borrowing the appearances of others, even absorbing something of their emotional state to tell friend from foe in an instant. No one is ever sure where—or who—Neeko might be, but those who intend to do her harm will soon witness her true colors revealed, and feel the full power of her primordial spirit magic unleashed upon them.

Neeko tips:

  • You can set her passive to use hotkeys in the options menu. The default is Shift+F1~F5
  • Try to use Inherent Glamour sparingly, ineffective uses will put enemies on the alert.

Playing Against Neeko

  • Standing behind minions against Neeko is very dangerous as Tangle-Barbs become stronger.
  • Pop Blossom's warning visuals are invisible if Neeko is disguised.

Neeko abilities description:

Inherent Glamour
P
Inherent Glamour (passive)
Neeko can look like an ally champion or as other units on the map. Receiving immobilizing crowd control, casting damaging spells, damaging enemy towers as a non-champion, or your disguise taking damage equal to its healthbar breaks the disguise.
Blooming Burst
Q
Blooming Burst (Q)
Neeko throws a seed dealing magic damage. The seed blooms again on hitting champions or killing units.
Shapesplitter
W
Shapesplitter (W)
Neeko passively deals bonus magic damage every third attack, briefly increasing her move speed. Neeko can activate to send a clone in a direction and recast to change the direction of the clone.
Tangle-Barbs
E
Tangle-Barbs (E)
Neeko slings a tangle that damages and roots everything it passes through. If the tangle kills an enemy or passes through a champion, it becomes larger, faster, and roots for longer.
Pop Blossom
R
Pop Blossom (R)
After a short preparation, Neeko leaps into the air, knocking up all nearby enemies. Upon landing, nearby enemies are damaged and stunned. The preparation is hidden if Neeko is disguised.
