Seraphine combos: execution and timing

AA = basic attack · EAA = empowered attack · 1/2/3 = cast stage. Follow the order, not instant key presses.

Recast practice: High Note

  1. High NoteQ
  2. Beat DropE
  3. AA
  4. Surround SoundW
  5. AA
  6. AA
  7. High NoteQ
  8. AA

With Seraphine, start with High Note, then continue through Beat Drop → Basic attack → Surround Sound → Basic attack → Basic attack → High Note → Basic attack. Read the resource or charge indicator for Stage Presence before starting. Compare this sequence with and without the required preparation.

Mistake to avoid : Do not assume the same damage, control or follow-up when the required indicator is missing.

Repeated spells may need a recast window or a cooldown; check that the next activation is actually available.

Include Encore in the rotation

  1. EncoreR
  2. Beat DropE
  3. High NoteQ
  4. Surround SoundW

With Seraphine, start with Encore, then continue through Beat Drop → High Note → Surround Sound. Read the resource or charge indicator for Stage Presence before starting. Compare this sequence with and without the required preparation.

Game plan by role

Seraphine · Support
Early game

Stand where you can help your lane partner without exposing both of you. Coordinate the opening before spending your main control or protection.

Mid game

Set up vision with nearby allies rather than walking into unlit areas alone. Roam when your lane partner can safely handle the next wave.

Teamfights

Choose between creating an opening and protecting the teammate who can carry the fight. Do not spend every defensive spell on the first visible enemy.

Before your next fight, check: High Note · Encore · Combos

Seraphine · Bot
Early game

Coordinate trades with your support and keep last hits consistent. Stand where you can attack without stepping into both enemy players’ threat range.

Mid game

Collect safe farm while staying close enough to join your team. Check the map before crossing an exposed side lane for one more wave.

Teamfights

Keep dealing damage to an accessible target while tracking enemy engage tools. A safer sustained position is often better than chasing a distant carry.

Before your next fight, check: High Note · Encore · Combos

06

Matchup preparation

Compare opponents in the build for the role you are actually playing. Then check their key control, escape and defensive spells before choosing your trade.

07

Practice checklist

  1. Cast each ability alone and identify its range, target conditions and stopping point.
  2. Practise the first sequence slowly. Repeat it while moving, without skipping the conditions shown on its card.
  3. After each attempt, identify the spell you would still have available to defend or retreat.
