For maximum damage output and extended trades, weave auto-attacks between your abilities. This basic attack-ability combo maximizes your damage potential.

Keep track of your Silver Bolts (W) stacks. Target the same enemy to proc the percentage health damage, which is especially effective against tanks.

Use Tumble (Q) for repositioning and dodging skillshots rather than just damage. The invisibility from Final Hour (R) paired with Tumble creates opportunities for outplay.

In lane, coordinate with your Support. Your short range makes you vulnerable early, so rely on their engage or peel to trade effectively.

During teamfights, stay behind your frontline and hit the closest target. Don't dive the backline unless you have a clear, safe opportunity.
