Key Insights

  • E
    's cooldown is reduced by 0.5 seconds per auto attack.
  • R
    is an extremely fast dash, but can still be interrupted.
  • W
    grants True Sight of the struck enemy.
  • Upon evolving Kai'Sa's basic abilities,
    Q
    fires 12 missiles instead of 6,
    W
    applies one more
    P
    stack and refunds 70% of its cooldown if it hits an enemy champion, and
    E
    grants invisibility for 0.5 seconds.

Strengths

  • Excels at poking from a safe distance, especially before teamfights. This is especially true when
    W
    is upgraded.
  • For AD, Best with items enhancing attack damage, critical strike, and attack speed.
  • For AP, Best with ability power-focused items for burst damage and enhanced abilities.
  • Functions well as a follow-up diver with
    R
    with her high damage. Also doubles as an escape tool.
  • Has strong 1v1 potential since
    Q
    will fire all its missiles at one target.

Weaknesses

  • Once
    R
    is used, Kai'Sa has no way out of a fight.
  • E
    prevents her from auto attacking during its cast, which can be harmful before evolving it.
  • Very reliant on gold and levels.
