Learn how to Qiyana counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Position away from walls, river, and brush during teamfights against Qiyana — her ultimate creates damaging shockwaves along these terrain features that can stun your entire team for up to 1 second.
Team Fight
Avoid fighting in narrow jungle corridors or choke points against Qiyana — these areas maximize her ultimate's effectiveness and make it difficult to avoid the stunning shockwave.
Team Fight Late Game
After Qiyana uses both her E (dash to enemy) and W (dash to element), she has limited mobility for several seconds — this is your window to either engage on her or disengage safely.
Skirmish
Track which element Qiyana is holding (visible on her weapon): green (brush) grants invisibility, blue (river) provides root and slow, and brown (terrain) increases damage against low-health targets.
Skirmish Team Fight
Qiyana is vulnerable to burst damage after using her E aggressively — coordinate with your team to focus her down quickly in these moments before she can escape.
Skirmish Team Fight
Be cautious when Qiyana reaches level 6 — this is a major power spike when she gains her ultimate. If you see her approaching your lane, run through the middle of the lane rather than near walls.
Basic Lane Phase
Force extended fights against Qiyana when possible — she excels in short trades but becomes vulnerable once her abilities are on cooldown and her passive's per-target damage has less impact over time.
Skirmish
When Qiyana has the river element (blue), be prepared for her Q to root and slow — this makes her ganks particularly dangerous and enables her team to follow up easily.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Maintain vision in the river and jungle entrances during mid-game — this is when Qiyana shines with her roaming and team fighting capabilities, especially when her ultimate is available.
Late Game
When Qiyana uses her brush element Q, it creates a field that grants her invisibility for up to 3 seconds until she attacks or uses another ability. Be prepared for her to use this for repositioning or escaping.
