Zilean General information
Zilean tips and tricks
Good times to use your Bombs Q is when the enemy is inside the minion wave. This will allow you to push and poke at the same time.
If you can’t hit your Bombs Q, slow the enemy first with your E and then follow it up with a Q W Q.
Only use your Ultimate R to save somebody worth saving. Don’t Ult R someone who is 0-5!
