Gwen Matchups Overview

Gwen General information

Gwen tips and tricks

Gank lanes that are overextended and out of position. You can easily chase enemies down who are overextended.

Activate your Hallowed MistW to block CC and interrupts when ganking a lane. The mist will block CC and help your ganks succeed.

When clearing the jungle, try and auto-attack as much as possible before using your Snip Snip!Q. The more stacks you have, the more damage your Snip Snip!Q will deal.
