Hey guys, im a Katarina otp for a year now , i reached plat 5 this season and i want to share with you guys the things i know about katarina in my first guide here so i hope you will like it!

Passive : Voracity 

This passive is what makes  Katarina the teamfighting aoe assasin , it has 2 parts 

First part : all your abilities cooldown get reduced by 15 second when you get a kill or an assist within 3 seconds  so be sure to get as much kills as you can in teamfights to get your abilities faster.

second part : when you catch a dagger from your   q or your  w its deals damage in a circle , this is  Katarina's main damage source so you need to hit them.

Q : Bouncing blade

This is your main farming ability in the laning phase , it basically throws a dagger to the targeted enemy then it bounces to 2 nearby enemies and then it lands 350 units on the opposite side of the enemy that you targeted. A useful thing that you can do with  Katarina's  q is running away from the enemy or chasing a champion through the jungle (example : you can q the gromp so the dagger lands behind the wall).

W :  Preparation

 Katarina throws a dagger in the air then it lands after 1.25 seconds and you gain bonus movement speed for 1.25 seconds , this ability can be used for chasing/trading/dodging and mainly for getting e resets, i will explain more in the combos section.

E : SHUNPO

This is what makes  Katarina a mobile assasin, you can blink to a target(it can be an enemy or an ally) after a 0.25 second delay dealing damage if the target is an enemy, it can also reset your autoattack timer so be sure to auto++auto to maximize your damage in a trade,  Shunpo's cooldown is reduced when you pick a dagger, its so useful for some quick trades in lane. "small tip :  you can shunpo to your daggers before they land on the ground :)".

R : Death lotus

This ultimate helps you deal more damage in teamfights,  Katarina  channels for 2.5 seconds and deals damage to 3 nearby enemies and applying Grevious Wounds on them for 3 seconds, you need to know that this is a channel ultimate so it can be interrupted by any hard cc (stuns/suppresion/knockups...) be sure to bait enemy's cc then you can go in.





Katarina has a lot of combos that needs practice and time to master them, here are some of the combos that i use : 

Q + E Combo : you can use this when you want to cheese the enemy and get lvl 2 first, you just  q  your opponent or a minion(make sure to make the dagger land near the enemy) then  e to the dagger for a fast and easy electrocuteproc.

Q + E + W + E out Combo : if you think you cant kill your opponent with a full rotation you can do this combo for some juicy damage and at the end  shunpo out to safety.

E + W + Q + E Combo : This is Katarina's best combo imo , you can almost everytime land both daggers with this combo but the previous one its more likely that you gonna hit only one, you also gonna use this combo in teamfights when you get resets.

E + W + Q + Gunblade + R + E : After getting you power spike item you gonna use it alot in your combos because of how powerful it is(damage+slow), the slow makes it more diffucult for your target to dodge your daggers. This combo is one of the hardest ones to do because you need to be very fast to throw everything at the same time in order to burst your enemies then get your reset and jump on another target or just run away, when you  e + w +  +  on an enemies you give them 2 choices : stay inside your ult to not get hit by the q dagger or just get away from your ult to not get damaged to death, when you see them do the second choice instantly shunpo to the q dagger and then you type "/all ez" for some bm  :3. 

W + E + Q + Gunblade + R + E : This combo is very situational and you can do it when you run away from your enemies, you throw your  then walk away a bit , if a squishy enemy walks onto your dagger you execute this combo and then e out so you don't get caught by his teammates.



• Most of the teamfights you will need first to wait the enemy to throw all their cc on your team if you have a tanky top/jungler/support , if not you can jump to a low health enemy and kill them fast to get your resets and then you can do the  e+  w +  +  r combo.

• Sometimes if your team lacks engagers you can bait your enemies buy jumping on a squishy target and then instantly  so your team can back you up after the statis finishes.
• In late game  you can use katarina's  ultimate 2 times in the same teamfight if you get atleast 3 resets.

I hope you guys enjoyed my first Katarina guide and remember Katarina is just a faceroll champ Kappa.
