Watch Vex's Q, W, and E for a changed ability icon — it means her passive Doom is ready and her next basic ability will knock down and fear enemies for up to 1.5 seconds, a clean window to land your own damage or crowd control.
Basic Team Fight Skirmish
When Vex's R lands on a target, they're marked and revealed for 4 seconds — use this window to line up burst damage before or during her dash so the target dies while she's still attached to them.
Team Fight Skirmish
Fight near Vex against dash- or blink-heavy enemies — her passive Gloom marks anyone who dashes or blinks close to her, and her next basic ability or attack on them detonates for bonus damage and a cooldown refund.
Team Fight Skirmish
If Vex's R kill lands within 6 seconds of the mark, she gets a free recast within 12 seconds — stay ready to follow her into a second target instead of resetting after the first kill.
Advanced Team Fight Skirmish
As jungler, look to gank when Vex's passive is ready — her guaranteed fear locks down the target, and her E adds a slow that helps you land your own crowd control.
Lane Phase
Vex's R has extremely long range and grants sight along its path — she can scout and threaten side lanes without leaving mid, so expect surprise engages from her ultimate.
Skirmish
Group and fight in tight spaces with Vex — her Q and E are both AoE, so they deal far more damage when enemies are clustered together instead of spread across an open area.
