  • ▸ Lane Harassment: Push the enemy minion wave back into tower range using Skill 2 to deny farm.
  • ▸ Vision Control: Hold river bushes prior to Lord spawns; Conceal team only when opponents step up.
  • ▸ Peel vs Dive: If enemy has assassins (Fanny/Ling), save Sacred Hammer exclusively to protect your carry.
