Demonstrating: Headshot

Headshot

Periodic attacks trigger Headshot; attacks from brush build it faster. Trapped or netted targets open an additional extended-range Headshot window. Since patch 7.3a its level-scaling AD component is 60–90%; critical chance and critical damage also affect the damage.

menu_bookHow to Play

Early Game

Levels 1–8

Use range to punish a last hit, then step out before the enemy support can engage. Push only when the river is covered or your jungler can respond. Place traps underneath existing allied control or along a likely escape, not randomly across the wave. A trapped target gives a more reliable damage window than blindly firing 1 through several minions.

Reference build: Stormrazor → Hexoptics C44 → Lord Dominik's Regard → Infinity Edge → Bloodthirster.
Summoner spells: Flash + Barrier.
Follow allied immobilization with a trap and attack before adding 1. Keep the net available if the enemy diver is still missing.

Late Game

Levels 9–15

Arrive before an objective and place traps across entrances while staying behind allies. Headshot remains a key damage window, but since 7.3a it scales with 60–90% of your AD (was 60–100%) and your attack speed grows more slowly: lane advantage is not a guarantee of winning a stationary duel. Use 3 to create distance and reserve the ultimate for a safe finishing angle; another champion can block the shot.

Berserker’s Greaves help sustained attacks. Switch Lord Dominik’s Regard to Mortal Reminder for healing-heavy enemies. Consider Guardian Angel in place of a late damage slot if being caught decides every fight. 7.3b made Yun Tal Wildarrows cheaper (3000): it can open the build in games you expect to drag on, but as a ranged champion you gain only 0.2% crit per attack, so Stormrazor still gives Headshot more early. Statikk Shiv (2900) has no crit chance and does not fit her.
