Help Learning Kha'Zix

So I recently picked up Kha (great timing with his new skin lol) and I've been struggling a bit. I can understand that he shines during laning phase, where he can gank lanes and assassinate enemies with little issues, but my problem is during mid-late game when teams are grouping. how do I jump into a fight without getting completely obliterated? Is building tanky Kha viable at all? I just need a bit of overall advice

Hey man, just copied + pasted this what I've written on another thread like this. Hope it helps ya (:

Just a short anwer, got no time (/Edit: I sacrificed my pre-school-time for this!!! That's bc I luv Kha'Zix and would like to see more guys plaing him ^^) : What I like to do is building

a) Tiamat if you are ahead

b) black cleaver then - like all the time

c) finish Hydra if you are still ahead, then go for youmuus or

d) go for tank Items such as dead man's, spirit visage, randuin's, if burst mages: banshee's...

e) other choices are building LW early, upgrade/sell it later after your core (cleaver, warrior and Tiamat) and getting GA if you are fed. A nice little trick is to sell GA after the first activation of it's passive, bc then it's basically useless ^^ u don't need armor/MR as much as a DMG item such as Deaths Dance. After the 3 mins have passed you can get it again

And get the warrior enchantment, of course :)

For your abilities: Start with W - Q -E then max R > Q > W/E

Evolving: really depends in your playstyle I'd suggest evolving Q first = more DMG You can also evolve E first = more/better mobility, especially good if you are playing toplane/sometimes mid or if you just wanna jump around like crazy ;) Your must-have-evolutions are Q + E, I like evolving R for the cool color (you will become red :3 ) and W for more utility.

In TFs what you wanna do is basically wait until the fight has already started, then jump/Ult in - kill the ADC/APC - juke with ult - jump out/or on the next target.

You are also able to counterjungle pretty well, just get a leash on your krugs/gromp and run to the enemy Blue/red Buff. For that i'd consider taking Q + E first rather than W + Q/E for better chasing/escaping. but you have to watch the mini map and react to the other's pings in order to not give first blood to the enemy midlaner/adc

Sorry for eventual grammar mistakes, I'm no native speaker. I hope I could help you a bit, good luck and have fun! :)

I also like playing mid/top Kha'Zix, and if you are interested in that, here's my build: Mid: just no tank(y) Items except Cleaver, + get a Blade of Draktharr if you are fed Top: just like Jungle build except Smite item ;) Start new flask in both cases

Step 1. Refund Kha'Zix

Step 2. Purchase literally any other Jungler

Step 3. You're now better at Kha'Zix

I joke I joke.

You pretty much have to go the Evelynn Elise LeeSin route and build tanky after your time in the spotlight early game. Don't EVER initiate the fight yourself. I'd say the only time that's worth doing is if they have like a half health high priority target like their ADC or Mid laner. Then you're basically gonna make a a 1 for 1 and pray your team wins the fight. Not really recommended. You pretty much just gotta wait for someone else to engage whether that be your team or theirs, keep a close eye on their high damage targets, strike when the time is right, then slither on out of there or bounce to the next target.

So, what I do more early is tart gromp > blue > wolves > red and then crugs or I go for a gank. That's my early but what I do more early I get fed myself and also my team. If you can be efficient In ganks and all of that early on the late game will be more easy. If they are grouping late I would recommend waiting for the enemy team to use all their CC them you go in for a squishy. Depending on your situation, basically how fed they are and or your team and if you are fed. What I do is I stay back and wait for an opening. Like I said, when they use all the cc. So if you are ahead I'd say go, warrior > deaths dance > black cleaver > hydra (you can switch hydra and bc if you want). I generally like to get lucidity boots just because it gives CDR on everything and makes my assassinations easier. So the full build would be something like this, Warrior > Deaths Dance > Lucidity > > Black Cleaver > Ravenous Hydra > DeadMans Plate. You can work with what ever you want but that's how I like to play him. Also, adding onto the fights if you get locked down you need to ult straight away if you can ult they won't be able to see you so that means you can A. E for a kill and maybe get them or B. E out and have a chance to live and defend. Depending on how much you play Kha and how skilled you are with him you know certain things. I'm thinking you are relatively new to him so if you want to add me in league I can help you with things in there. Also you can just add me if you want to know anything else.
