Guide Katarina League of Legends S6

Voracity

(Innate): Scoring a kill or assist will reduce the cooldowns of Katarina's abilities by 15 seconds.

Tips :
An OP passive in teamfight!

The passive that makes Katarina incredible in teamfight
Katarina's cooldowns are reduced by 15% if she recovers a kill or an assist, this would then have the effect of recuperating the total cooldown of her Q/W/E.

In teamfight, Katarinas should often hide themselves at the beginning to finally attack once the opponents have little control left and have often lost HP. Katarina should therefore focus champions with less HP to take kills/assists and also to be able to follow up with several spells in a row, killing opponents blow by blow.

Bouncing Blades (Q)

(Active): Katarina throws a dagger that bounces quickly from enemy to enemy, dealing magic damage and marking them. Each subsequent hit deals 10% less damage. Bouncing Blades hits a total of 5 unique targets (4 bounces), each striking the next closest target.

Striking a marked target with an ability or basic attack will consume the mark to deal additional magic damage.

Range: 675

Tips :

Katarina throws her blade at the target, it bounces back after leaving a mark on them.

A harass spell.

The bouncing radio controlled spike, what else!
Use this especially to harass in the early game and do your last hits at long range if you have difficulties in the mid.

C'est également la meilleure compétence pour engager votre adversaire car la marque que vous apposerez permettra de faire plus de dégât.

The spell does less and less damages each time it bounces back so it is advised to throw the spike directly at your main target.

The mark lasts for up to 4 seconds and can be activated by Katarina's Z.

This spell hasa short incantation time.

In teamfight, this can be used to poke your opponents before an engage.

Cooldown: 10 / 9.5 / 9 / 8.5 / 8 seconds

Dagger Magic Damage: 60 / 85 / 110 / 135 / 160 (+0.45 per ability power)

On-hit Magic Damage: 15 / 30 / 45 / 60 / 75 (+0.15 per ability power)

Total Damage: 75 / 115 / 155 / 195 / 235 (+0.6 per ability power)

Sinister Steel (W)

(Active): Katarina whirls her daggers around her, dealing magic damage to all enemies in the area. If she hits an enemy champion, Katarina gains Movement Speed for 1 second.

Cooldown: 4 seconds
Radius of AoE: ~375

Tips :

Katarina turns quickly around, inflicting damages on any targets she touches.

Katarina's main DPS/utility spell

Yes you will spam...
With good AD and AP ratios, this skill is excellent to push your lane and farm more quickly.

Sinister Steel is also very useful for the quick movement buff , it will also give a 1 second movement bonus if the spell touches a champion, allowing you to catch your target or avoid a skillshot.

The spell's cooldown is very weak, 4 seconds and its range of about 375 allows you to use it up to 2 times in a harass exchange if the opponent is not too close to his turret.

The spell does not have an incantation time so can be cast while moving.

In teamfight, it would be interesting to position yourself for the ultimate as well as Katarina's Shunpo (E). Also, you must always do this spell before the ultimate to recover it while the ultimate is being sent when Katarina is unable to move.

Magic Damage: 40 / 80 / 120 / 160 / 200 (+0.25 per ability power) (+0.6 per bonus attack damage)

Movement Speed: 12 / 20 / 28 / 36 / 44 %

Shunpo (E)

(Active): Katarina instantly moves to her target's location and takes 15% reduced damage from enemies for 3 seconds. If the target is an enemy, she deals magic damage.

Range: 700

Tips :

Katarina jumps on her target and becomes white for the duration of the damage reduction bonus.

Katarina's dash offers her an incredible mobility

The spell to make your opponents crazy
The Shunpo is a very important spell for Katarina, it is therefore essential to master it quickly.

You can use it on your opponents, your allies, the sbires, neutral monsters or even a ward to chase/escape. It is therefore interesting to use it to create distance between yourself and your opponents, although you do need vision to use it.

Having a ward on you can therefore be very useful for getting out of very dangerous situations or to pass through a wall because if you place the ward and the quickly use Shunpo on it then you can get out of a lot of situations.

It inflicts a good amount of damages and lets you surprise your enemies. Try to place it after you have marked your enemy with your Bouncing Blades in order to do more damages.

The demage reduction bonus (15% for 3 seconds) is also very useful to resist your opponents' burst .

During a teamfight, if you recover an assist or a kill then this spell will be ready again and will let you catch the fugitives and also feed you. This helps you to snowball.

Cooldown: 12 / 10.5 / 9 / 7.5 / 6 seconds

Magic Damage: 60 / 85 / 110 / 135 / 160 (+0.4 per ability power)

Death Lotus (R)

(Active): Katarina becomes a flurry of blades, throwing up to 30 daggers at nearby enemy champions during the 2 second channel. Katarina throws blades at 0.2 second intervals, dealing magic damage and applying Grievous Wounds to the closest 3 enemy champions. Grievous wound reduces incoming healing by 50%.

An enemy champion can be hit by a maximum of 10 daggers over the 2 seconds.

Diameter of AoE: 550

Tips :

Katarina turns around throwing spikes at nearby targets.

The chanelled ultimate capable of hurting 3 targets.

Be aware, the ultimate can be interrupted by a control, otherwise its over for them.
Work your placement so that you don't get stopped quickly.

The ultimate is quite difficult to place because you are very exposed because of its weak range of a diameter of 550 so can easily be targeted. You should therefore concentrate to know what controls are being used by your opponents. And in the beginning you should be aware of the controls of your opponents that are capable to interrupting you.

A "bump", a fear, a silence, a stun, a suppression... All of these can interrupt you because it is a chanelled spell!

If your team has a lot of controls you can inflict important damages.

The ultimate can touch up to 3 targets, so it would be best to position yourself in a way that enables you to maximise your damages, but also to kill at least one opponent to activate your passive and also to follow up with kills and win the teamfight for your team.

This ultimate reduces heals by 50%, allowing you to overcome your opponents who respawn too much. Combining with ignite will result in devestating effects.
