All
When Cassiopeia lands her R (Petrifying Gaze), position on the opposite side of the target from her — enemies facing her get stunned, but those facing away only get slowed, so a coordinated flank locks down more targets.
Team Fight
Cassiopeia's W (Miasma) grounds everyone caught in the poison cloud, blocking dashes, blinks, and Flash — follow up immediately with skillshots or all-ins while enemies can't reposition.
Team Fight Skirmish
Cassiopeia's E (Twin Fang) only deals its bonus damage and heals significantly against poisoned enemy champions — engage or follow up right after she lands Q or W, since that's her peak damage window.
Basic Skirmish Team Fight
Cassiopeia has no dash, blink, or other mobility tool — her passive amplifies all movement speed bonuses — so she can't peel for herself or escape a dive. Prioritize covering her lane, since she has no way to disengage on her own.
Basic Lane Phase
Her R (Petrifying Gaze) has a long cooldown early in the game — once she uses it to engage or peel, expect a long wait before it's up again. Plan fights around that window.
Advanced Team Fight
Cassiopeia typically maxes E first, giving her a real level 2 all-in off Q and E — she snowballs hard off an early kill, so look to assist her lane before she's forced to fall behind.
Lane Phase
Cassiopeia scales into one of the strongest late-game champions — help her farm safely even if she falls behind early, since her damage output climbs sharply as she stacks items.
