Abilities
P

Sap Magic
Maokai's basic attack also heals him and deals additional damage on a moderate cooldown. Each time Maokai casts a spell or is struck by an enemy's spell, this cooldown is reduced.
Q

Bramble Smash
Maokai knocks back nearby enemies with a shockwave, dealing magic damage and slowing them.
W

Twisted Advance
Maokai contorts into a mass of moving roots, becoming untargetable and dashing to the target. Upon arrival, he roots the target.
E

Sapling Toss
Maokai flings a sapling to the target area to stand guard. More effective in brush.
R

Nature's Grasp
Maokai summons a colossal wall of brambles and thorns that slowly advances forwards, damaging and rooting any enemies in the path.
Tips
As Ally
- •Saplings can be tossed into brush for empowered effect - but don't stack well.
- •Try looking for flanks or other situations where Nature's Grasp is unavoidable or takes enemies by surprise.
- •Maokai's passive makes him extremely durable against focus fire from spells - so long as he can still basic attack something.
As Enemy
- •Saplings will chase the first enemy that gets too close, but detonate after a few seconds or if they collide with other enemies. Be especially careful around brush sapling, as they are much more dangerous.
- •The cooldown on Maokai's self healing is heavily gated on how many time you hit him with spells. Careful about wasting abilities on him.
- •Maokai will avoid taking damage while he's using Twisted Advance, so don't waste your spells.

Maokai
Lore
Maokai is a rageful, towering treant who fights the unnatural horrors of the Shadow Isles. He was twisted into a force of vengeance after a magical cataclysm destroyed his home, surviving undeath only through the Waters of Life infused within his heartwood. Once a peaceful nature spirit, Maokai now furiously battles to banish the scourge of unlife from the Shadow Isles and restore his home to its former beauty.
