Expert Tips
- Sigil of Malice (Q) marks targets. Warp-Q combo chains maximize burst — teleport in, then instantly re-Q.
- Distortion (W) has a 4 second window to return to the original location. Position the return point strategically.
- Chain Void (E) chains and slows — always land it before your Q-W combo for the guaranteed kill pattern.
