K'Sante Matchups Overview

K'Sante General information

K'Sante tips and tricks

Don’t constantly push during the laning phase. You will not be able to use your Ultimate when you’re constantly pushing, as you’ll throw yourself into the enemy's tower.

Post 6, beware of using your Ultimate. Check your surroundings and look for the enemy Jungler before going in with your Ult.

In the early laning phase, you can threaten an all-in with your 3rd Q stack to gain a significant health advantage over the enemy.
