LoL’s Qiyana is all about her elemental abilities
The assassin will work best in the river, near a wall, or the brush.
The newestLeague of LegendschampionQiyanais almost here, and with her arrival comes a new set of abilities for Summoners to master. Here’s a brief overview of her skill set.
Playing as Qiyana means playing with the elements around the map, namely the river, the wall, and the brush.
Her passive ability,Royal Privilege, gives primary attacks or abilities a bonus damage.
Qiyana’s first skill can be very tricky, as the effects vary depending on the element used.Edge of Ixtaldeals damage by slashing the area in front of Qiyana. If an element is used, she will throw her ring to the target and it will explode.
The river element will root enemies, the wall element will give an additional damage to low health units, and the brush element will give Qiyana movement speed after giving a stealth trail.
Terrashapetargets any of the three elements, making Qiyana dash while gaining movement speed, attack speed, and bonus damage.
Audacity, her E ability, deals damage by making a dash.
Her ultimate ability calledSupreme Display of Talentcreates a shockwave that knocks back enemies. Any element hit by the shockwave will explode and stun opponents for a short period.
Utilizing Terrashape is the key to victory, according to Riot’s BenSandalwoodgripsChabala.
“Qiyana gets damage, attack speed, and damage buffs while she’s near her chosen element (River/Wall/Brush), and Q – Edge of Ixtal, gains enhanced properties, letting her root enemies, do more damage to low healthopponents,or stealth,” wrote Sandalwoodgrips in a blog post.
The AD burst assassin will be arriving on the Summoner’s Rift on Patch 9.13.
