Ashe tips:

  • Try to fire Enchanted Crystal Arrow in the same direction enemies are moving, so it is more likely to hit.
  • Volley arrows are blocked by the first enemy they hit, so keep your distance to avoid having them all absorbed by enemy frontliners.
  • Hawkshot reveals units in brush. If a team fight is occuring in the jungle it can give you a significant advantage.

Playing Against Ziggs

  • Don't step on Ziggs' mines! They'll slow you and make it much easier for him to hit you with his other abiltiies.
  • Many of Ziggs' abilities have long cooldowns. Try catching him just after he's used his abilities.
  • Ziggs' ultimate, Mega Inferno Bomb, deals more damage in the center of the explosion.
