How Do I Play Katarina

Heckin Support·Nov 12, 2016·1 votes·406 views

Can someone explain to me her new combos and her just new general playstyle. Because I just played a game with her and I just can't get the hang of her new kit. It's no longer just qewr. Rip

depend son the level

@ level 2 if you want / need to do damage

Q E (reset) e thats all you can do but katarina basically "unlocks" at level 3

E W Q ( reset ) E (reset ) E ignite

thats the combo shown here

In lane depending on who you are up against you should look to do different things

against Champs with dash's like Leblanc look to farm until 6 and only go for trade when their abilities are on cooldown

Immobile target look to poke them down with Q's and if they misplay at all jump on them and Use the new combo as shown in the video

Also itemize differantly

I've personally been going Ludens first into either rylas or hextech depending on if im snowballing or if i want to 1v1 a lot

thats most important here is the slow that both items give as you have chase potential on par with akali but your damage relies on them being in dagger range so the slow really helps kepping them where you need them to be

at 6 in a team fight i normally look to Q first but if i need to go in EWR(reset) and then from there on the combo is situational

Here is a basic combo:

E on target first, make sure you land infront of the target and not behind W once you are INFRONT of the target. Q target so that the dagger lands behind target. Naturally your opponents is going to want to kite you or run away, this is why its important to E infront of them and not behind them pick up first dagger, E on target, then pick up second dagger then E back to safety or finish them off.

That's the only basick combo I know atm. Everything else comes with practice.
