Vex Guide

Key Insights
Enemies who dash or blink near Vex are marked with Gloom, causing Vex's next auto or basic ability to consume the mark to deal bonus damage and refund 25% of
Vex
P
's cooldown.
Triggering
Vex
P
knocks down the affected enemy.
Vex
E
increases in size the farther it travels.
If
Vex
R
's target dies within 6 seconds of being marked by it, Vex can cast
Vex
R
again for free for the next 12 seconds.
Vex
R
grants vision of where it travels and grants true sight of its target.
Strengths
Has strong poking potential and can protect herself when enemies reach her with
Vex
P
/
Vex
W
.
Can constantly lower
Vex
P
's cooldown by consuming marks on dashing and blinking enemies as well as landing
Vex
E
.
Excels at bursting enemies, interrupting engages, and has the potential to "pop off" in teamfights with
Vex
R
's reset mechanic.
Synergizes well with
Luden's Tempest
,
Zhonya's Hourglass
,
Rabadon's Deathcap
,
Horizon Focus
,
Shadowflame
, and
Void Staff
. Can opt for
Crown of the Shattered Queen
or
Everfrost
when needed.
Weaknesses
All of Vex's skillshots are slow and telegraphed.
Is naturally weaker when
Vex
P
is on cooldown.
Once she enters a fight by recasting
Vex
R
, there's no way out.
