Abilities
You don't fight monsters. You click them to place a grove. After it matures, click again to harvest. Using Smite on a grove instantly harvests it. This lets you 'steal' enemy buffs in 2 seconds if they aren't looking.
Throws a root. If it hits, you and your allies can click the target to dash to it. Use on jungle monsters (even through walls) to dash to them for faster movement, even if you can't attack them.
Passive: You deal more damage and have more range in brush. Active: Creates a bush. Use to hide your team's HP during a Baron take or to grant yourself the on-hit damage buff in a fight.
The core of your kit. Shield an ally to slow nearby enemies. If the shield doesn't hit anyone, it refreshes. Always prioritize shielding the person in the middle of the enemy team to maximize the slow.
Summons Daisy. She acts as your personal tank. Control her with Alt+Click or by re-casting . She procs your on-hit damage and can knock up enemies after three hits.
Teamfight Role
Backline Enchanter / Disruptor
Stay in the back and spam on your frontline or whoever is being focused. Micro-manage to attack the highest priority target or the enemy ADC to force them to kite away. Use to break line-of-sight for your team.
If you are the only one with a shield, you may need to briefly step up to land a point-blank , but never stay in melee range.
Combos
The Basic Gank
-> on yourself -> Dash to target -> on self
Root them first, dash in with your shield already active so the explosion slows them, then drop a bush to get your empowered auto attacks from .
The Daisy Lockdown
-> on Daisy -> target -> Daisy attacks
Use Daisy as the delivery vehicle for . The slow from the shield makes it impossible for them to dodge or Daisy's third-hit knockup.
Brush Bait
on self/ally -> ->
Hide in your to gain the range advantage. Wait for them to walk into the bush, shield yourself for the instant slow, then point-blank for the root.
Long Range Peel
on Carry -> the diver -> behind Carry
Protect your backline. Shield the carry with , root the assassin with , and summon to act as a physical body block.
Power Spikes
| Spike | Why |
|---|---|
| Level 1 | + Smite allows you to steal an enemy buff and escape before they even finish their first camp. |
| Level 6 | Summoning changes everything. You can now 2v2, solo objectives, and dive towers safely. |
| Level 9 | With fully maxed, the shield value and low cooldown make your team significantly harder to kill in mid-game skirmishes. |
| Level 11 | Daisy gets much tankier with the second point in , allowing her to stay in fights much longer. |
Tips & Tricks
- •Smite is a combat spell for you; use it on a grove to instantly take a camp if you are being chased in the jungle.
- •Daisy procs the on-hit magic damage from if she is standing in a bush or if you are.
- •You can use to jump over walls by hitting a jungle monster on the other side.
- •Place on top of an epic monster (Drake/Baron) to hide its health bar from the enemy jungler, making it harder for them to time their Smite.
- •The shield from refreshes if it doesn't hit an enemy. Use this to maintain a permanent shield while rotating between lanes.
- •Allies can dash to your root by clicking the target. This includes Daisy—she will dash to whoever you root.
Common Mistakes
- ✕Using Smite on a camp that isn't groved by →You waste Smite completely. It does zero damage to non-epic monsters unless used to harvest a grove.
- ✕Placing bushes that help the enemy→If you place a bush and walk out of it, the enemy can hide in it to drop vision or ambush your team.
- ✕Neglecting to micro →Daisy will stand idle or hit a tank. You lose 50% of your champion's value if she isn't constantly attacking high-value targets.
- ✕Managing health poorly with →Marking too many camps at low HP makes you a free kill for the enemy jungler if they find you.
- ✕Using to dash into 5 people→Just because you hit the root doesn't mean you should take the dash. You are fragile and will be deleted instantly.
