5. 5Tips & Tricksoptional

   Author's category · 0 items · 1. A sneaky mindgame you can play during lane when getting T2 Bishop is to place both inside eachother, making it look like there is only one to the enemy, can lead to some nasty double Bishop hits! 2. Hold Rook Battery when casting to instantly have it split. 3. In Rift Fights, attempt to sneak onto the highground spots (Tree & Crane), that way you are hopefully unseen and can control your pieces flawlessly, taking full control of the fight. 4. Holding any piece slows you down in the air very similar to Mina's umbrella for a short while. 5. Kingside Knight allows you to take pawns- I mean teammates behind/post walls, somewhat similar to Dynamo's two! 6. During lane, once unlocking T2 Bishop, I most often place one Bishop below and one on top of the Bridge, for full lane control, in case the enemy attempts to regain bridge control. 7. You can bind your rmb to scroll wheel as well to use pieces faster, but I personally dont do this (we will probably get keybind updates soon).
