How Paige beats Apollo
Your game plan as Paige
A bookish support who shields her carry and floods the city with knights.
Lane
Plot Armor on your lane partner gives them a barrier and damage. Bookwyrm pokes and zones.
Mid game
Captivating Read slows, then immobilises. Set it up before the fight starts.
Late game
Rallying Charge crosses the entire map: heal allies and damage enemies in every lane.
How to beat Apollo
A fencer. Apollo wins duels by deflecting your best shot and riposting into you.
- 01Don’t throw your key ability into Riposte. Wait for it to expire, then commit.
- 02Spread out; Itani Lo Sahn is a long slash that rewards stacked teams.
- 03Hard CC before he lunges: Flawless Advance commits him forward.
