Learn how to play with Samira with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Coordinate your crowd control with Samira whenever your kit has an immobilizing effect — her passive punishes immobilized targets with a six-hit empowered attack and knocks up anyone airborne.
Basic Lane Phase Team Fight
Track Samira's Style meter next to her health bar — avoid forcing fights while it's below S, since her damage output is far lower without Inferno Trigger available.
Team Fight Skirmish
Protect Samira the moment she starts channeling Inferno Trigger — her movement speed is reduced for its roughly 2-second duration and she can't use Q, W, or basic attacks, so any CC that lands on her cancels the channel early.
Team Fight
Group near Samira when she has W (Blade Whirl) available against projectile-heavy enemies — the 0.75-second spin destroys enemy projectiles around her, protecting nearby allies too.
Team Fight
Be extra vigilant when Samira's W (Blade Whirl) and E (Wild Rush) are both on cooldown — without either tool she has no mobility or projectile block and needs a teammate to cover her.
Advanced Team Fight
Follow up immediately when Samira dashes at an enemy with E (Wild Rush) — she can cast Q or her ultimate mid-dash, so a dash toward a target usually means she's committing to an all-in.
Skirmish Team Fight
Give Samira extra protection during early laning, before level 6 — she has no ultimate access yet and relies on teammates to cover her while she builds Style stacks safely.
