Kalista Matchups Overview
Kalista General information
Kalista tips and tricks
You can use your Ultimate R to engage or collapse on enemies who are caught out of position. On the topic of Ultimates R, don’t be afraid to save your Support.
Don’t use your Rend E until you’re completely finished with the skirmish as you may miss out on extra Rend E stacks. Activate E as you finish the exchange.
Make good use of your W by using it to scout vision in the river. Aim it as far as it will so it provides as much information as possible.
