Mage / Burst
Beginner Rule
Be suspicious of unusual champion movement — Neeko can disguise herself as allies using Inherent Glamour (Passive).
Neeko is a burst mage who excels at deception, picks, and surprise engages. She wants to disguise herself using Inherent Glamour (Passive) before landing crowd control and bursting enemies down. Many beginners focus on visible champions and forget Neeko could be hiding in plain sight.
Level 6 – Pop Blossom creates powerful engage potential.
First Item – Burst damage becomes threatening.
Teamfights – Excels at catching grouped enemies.

QWhat it does
Throws a seed dealing magic damage. Blooms again on hitting champions or killed units.
How to play against
The bloom hits twice near killed minions — back away from dying minions near her.
WWhat it does
Passive bonus magic damage every 3rd attack with speed. Active: sends a clone in a direction.
How to play against
She uses the clone to escape or confuse. Identify the real one — she's the one that can use Q and E.
EWhat it does
Slings a tangle that roots everything it passes through. Grows larger and roots longer after hitting champions.
How to play against
The chain root grows as it hits more champions. Never group near teammates against her.
RWhat it does
Leaps into the air knocking up nearby enemies then lands dealing AoE stun damage.
How to play against
She can cast this while disguised. Back away from any suspicious champion walking toward you.
