Lee Sin Tips and Tricks
- Lee Sin has a very strong early game and his potential for ganks is limitless. The main goal as a Lee Sin is to pressure the enemy laners with ganks since he's a very mobile champion due to the dashes from Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike and Safeguard / Iron Will.
- It is very important to learn and utilize the ward-dash mechanic with Safeguard / Iron Will and a Pink Ward/Trinket since this is essentially a "Temu" Flash on a 10 second cooldown that will allow you to gap-close and make insane combos.
- Flurry makes every Lee Sin ability cast grant him two quick basic attacks which return a portion of his energy. Always try to do two basic attacks on an enemy after every spell cast if you're in melee range as this will increase your damage output considerably.
- Lee Sin is all about the combos and the most common one is: Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike and cast it again to dash to them, Tempest / Cripple, Safeguard / Iron Will, Tempest / Cripple and Safeguard / Iron Will which is followed up with another cast of Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike— don't forget to do basic attacks between these skills if you are able to.
Lee Sin Matchups
Lee Sin Jungle Pathing Guide
Jungle Pathing represents the choices jungle players make in regards to when and where to gank, invade or just path towards. It includes how camps and buffs are cleared between ganks, anticipating counterganks, and spotting opportunities for invading. Effective pathing requires deep understanding of your champion's abilities, their interactions, and how both team compositions play into those choices.
Full clear with a lvl 3 gank from a Raptor start
The recommended jungle path for Lee Sin starts at Raptors with Tempest / Cripple for the AoE damage, then Red Brambleback with Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike at level two. Krugs come next, giving level three and unlocking Safeguard / Iron Will for sustain. This setup works because Lee Sin clears small camps quickly with AoE and has enough sustain & mobility from Safeguard / Iron Will to pressure the map early. At this point gank Mid or Bot/Top depending on your side and transition to clear the Blue Buff side of your jungle.
An alternative is starting at Blue Buff with Gromp into Wolves, following by the Red Buff side. This route delays Red Buff pressure but gives safer tempo into Scuttle and and longer uptime on Red Buff after clearing.
Lee Sin excels at early ganks because of Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike follow-up and Safeguard / Iron Will mobility. Mid lane ganks are a strong option since his Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike into Tempest / Cripple combo punishes immobile champions. If no lanes are available, contest Scuttle or invade with lane priority, since Lee Sin is among the strongest fighters before level six.
