Tips Against Rell as a Support Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Dupleeee says “A rare matchup but she destroys ur armor and magic resistance”
beefyylol says “You can bully Rell extremely hard in lane. Once she uses her W to go in she is pretty much a sitting duck for you and your ADC to free hit. Remember to not clump with your teammates so you can avoid giving her a free engage. ”
OTP Toxin says “You can dodge her all in, but if she lands her ult on you, will be something really stressful haha just drop some mushrooms on her feet when you get ulted, will help a lot.”
KalelPeique says “Não tem muito oque fazer, se poder banir, faça esse favor para você mesmo, Rell tem um kit muito forte e é um champ igual a Leona evite ficar perto dela, foque o ADC
_________________________________________
There's not much you can do, if you can ban, do this favor for yourself, Rell has a very strong kit and is a champ just like Leona, avoid getting close to her, focus on the ADC”
pastelzia says “Rell is an engage tank support with a lot of crowd control, making her Yuumi's biggest counter.
Rell's Shattering Strike allows Rell to thrust her lance in the target direction, completely destroying damage-mitigating shields of enemies hit before dealing them magic damage, destroying Bop 'n' Block, and Summon Aery's shields. Damage is reduced to 50% against enemies beyond the first.
Ferromancy: Crash Down is the first part of Ferromancy, one of Rell's abilities. This ability allows Rell to leap to the target location over the cast time, transforming her mount into durable armor and upon landing dealing magic damage to nearby enemies and knocking them up for 1 second. Rell keeps sliding forward another 300 units over 0.5 seconds, though not through terrain, affecting further enemies along her path. This ability cancel's You and Me!, refreshing it's cooldown.
Ferromancy: Mount Up is the second part of Ferromancy, one of Rell's abilities. This ability makes it so that while rell is dismounted, and has not used this ability's active, Rell's base movement speed is slowed to 250, but she gains bonus armor and magic resist. Upon activating this ability, Rell transforms her armor into a mount, gaining 15% bonus movement speed for 3.5 seconds, increased to an amount when moving towards enemy champions. Rell's next basic attack during this time gains 100 bonus attack range and consumes the bonus movement speed to have a 0.2-second cast time during which she charges at the target's location. At the end of the dash or upon premature collision, she deals them bonus magic damage, stuns them for 1 second, and flings them 150 units over herself. All of which canceling You and Me! and refreshing it's cooldown.
Rell's ability, Attract and Repel, allows Rell to magnetically bind herself and the allied champion nearest to the cursor with Attract and Repel. Rell then can recast Attract and Repel while the tether persists, erupting the tether, dealing magic damage to and stunning all enemies between and around her and the bound ally for 0.5 seconds, canceling You and Me! and refreshing it's cooldown.
Rell's ultimate, Magnet Storm, allows rell to pull all nearby enemies towards her for the next 2 seconds in an area around her, and every 0.25 seconds, it refreshes this pull. All of which canceling You and Me! and refreshing it's cooldown.
Rell is Yuumi's biggest counter.”
Discord231 says “Esta tipa es indestructible, concéntrate en el adc enemigo, si tu adc es de early, pueden ganar la linea, si no, juega defensivo. Escoge el ítem inicial en base a tu adc. ”
itsElJefe says “A good Rell player can give you a hard time in the lane. She has a lot of armor, a knock-up, and a stun. Don't be too aggressive and NEVER stand in between her and her ADC when she is linked to them. If she breaks the link with you in between, it stuns. She can flip a losing battle pretty fast with a large AOE knock-up followed by a stun. She can dive tower fairly easily, so walk far away and press B when you get low. Just don't over-commit and play for poke.”
GuanaTv says “Rell tem um kit muito simples, porém muito efetivo!
Ela tanca mais, inicia melhor e protege bem!
Complicado jogar contra!
(Rell has a very simple but very effective kit!
It tanks more, starts better and protects well!
Complicated to play against!)”
beeinthefranxx says “literally so easy to play against as any support. It is so sad to see how rell has fallen from grace but its wtv. literally just dodge her w and blow her up.”
Luminescape says “She is all cc no damage, and breaks your arey shields. Play safe, go relic if youre not confident and build miks to counter her cc. Tier 2 boots rush are a good idea”
Gobomo says “Attack her whenever she tries to W you, as it's got a pretty long animation and she's very very vulnerable for four or five seconds after using it. Even though she gets a shield off of it, you can still poke her pretty effectively by taking advantage of her lack of range. Just be wary of her W recast, which will give her a predator-like effect for a few seconds as well as a displacement on her next auto. ”
Petra Venj says “Guardian w/ Bone Plating. Watch for level 1,2 and 6, wards the bushes in lane and harrass her when she not in her horse. If they get a Samira, good luck :,).”
Terroronyou says “Hard Engage is very difficult for Senna. Your best bet is to harrass FROM LEVEL 1. Before they get their full engage online (lv2/3).”
yaemitskiuwu says “Major for Rell because of the impact she has on teamfights. You can polymorph her engage in laning and that's the only bright side to this match up.”
Dotje says “You allow your teammates to kite better, and she's a fairly easy target for your bubble once she jumps in. Be careful of your positioning, stay far back so you are able to help your teammates if they get caught. Even though in lane you could have a fair shot, later in the game her CC is just as powerful as yours.”
eiensiei says “You can interrupt her W with your Q, so don't waste it in lane for poke, as she will use that opportunity to go in. Alternatively, if your jungler is trying to gank you, bait her to jump on you by wasting your Q. ”
Aerenax says “Rell is a champion that can make you stop moving. Play around her W and try to punish her if possible, but she will have the better time during laning phase. Her ult is also annoying if you try to engage.”
eiensiei says “Just stand back, if she engages on you you're probably dead. If she engages on your ADC, E+Guardian + polymorph on the enemy ADC are usually enough to save the situation.”
LimTheDestructor says “Your pre-6 is stronger, just don't get out of mana and abuse your early strength. Use positioning to defend your adc from potential Rell engage - in both lane and lategame. Engage 2v2 when enemies make a big positioning mistake and are unable to disengage effectively. Snowball the game safely.”
Rasta Da Masta says “Mounted: She will look to jump on you and your partner so she can combo her CC. Save your W to knock her away and she will be out of options.
Dismounted: She's a free poke target as she's really slow. You have about 10 seconds to do what you need to do before she gets back on that horse.”
Hceercs says “Don't underestimate her, but you can flay her jump which makes Rell look very stupid hehe. But level 6 be very careful since her ult should win all-ins for her.”
lin00 says “Rell is a similar to Leona, her Ferromancy can be cancelled by Flay and easy counter attack after she unmounts. Her CC makes engage onto her dangerous.”
Korippo says “She is mostly a pick against tanks as she steals defenses from those she attacks, but against Yuumi she's very troublesome. Both parts of her W have CC and you need to be VERY cautious of positioning--putting yourself in between her and her ADC is not a good idea because if she casts E again, anyone inside of that will be stunned. Her R is also a stun that keeps enemies in her vicinity, so you need to try and ult before she does essentially. Despite this, she does suffer from being poked out of lane easily early game and she has no real form of range, so as long as you stay out her face there is a bit of an advantage to be had.”
Flackojodye says “Rell is useless, not because her engage is weak, but because immediately after dismounting, she is the weakest champion in the game. Save your E to hit important threats but she can't dodge it when she is dismounted.”
Distinger says “Iron lady goes yee-fucking-haw.
Funny perma stun champion, can cancel your Q and E with any ability except her Q.
Oh and she can also cancel your R if she hits a Q while she is linked with E to your target, and also reduces your resistances. Then she will jump on you and you will die.
No matter if you go Aftershock or HoB, she will reduce all your resistances.”
0Banda says “ Rell is a really hard matchup because one ability of her Q which counters all your shields, incluiding your Passive and E shields Against this champion you should roam a lot, and when engaging, you should focus the enemy ADC as Rell is very tanky, try getting out of her Q range
Against Rell you will build full Tank (check the build section upwards)
and in rune section go Overgrowth, more than that, just roam a lot”
Arcurath says “If she has an agro adc it can be tough if she lands the W E combo. You can try bait the W and run away with E speed then turn around and combo her.
After 6 you hard win as long as you dont let Rell get a full W R E combo on both you and adc.”
lenithebot says “You can cancel her W with your pulverize which can leave her very vulnerable after you cancel her W she is now in a very bad spot since she has the slow.”
Cimcia484 says “Champions like Rell or Leona, who need to engage on top of you rather than pull you to themselfs are much easier for Soraka to deal with. Take your E at level 2 to negate any potential engages and harass them with Qs.”
Jowoey says “Janna's best matchup pretty much. You can disrupt her engage with your Q or your R so don't waste your tornado. You can poke her when she's off her horse but be careful for her remounting. Once you play this matchup you'll get a feel for how Janna can almost always win it.”
Biotic says “Rell is rather dependant on the ADC matchup. If she is paired with a strong adc you will have a very hard time surviving her W engage. Try to bait it sometimes run out of it with E and doublebomb her. That way you get a heavily winning trade. After 6 make sure to not stick to your adc. IF rell cant W R both of you you should win all 2v2s.”
LIGHTBULB NA says “Similar to Leona, but more slightly more manageable. As long as she doesn't hit her full combo on both you and your ADC, you should be able to win every fight post 6”
KasgoesREEEEE says “easy to poke out with your q. she relies on being able to engage and stun you, stay parallel to your adc and avoid that stun. she struggles to exit fights to try to bait her w and you can usually kill her.”
lenithebot says “Rell is a hard matchup. You cant win all-ins due to her insane amount of tackiness and cc so don't even bother. Instead play with your jungler to try and get your jungler ahead or roam to get your other lanes ahead.”
Doody_tco says “Avoiding Rell abilities should not be a problem to Yuumi's carry, and if she manages to catch Yuumi's carry with her ultimate, healing and stunning Rell and her carry will do the rescuing job”
Billehz says “You can interrupt her jump with charm if you time it right, rendering her pretty useless for a few seconds and allowing you and your adc to get some good trades off on her, but if she lands her W and has her full combo up there isn't much you can do until she ults, to which you can just ult out of it.”
Jaori says “Play with your eyes around your head. Your E can cancel her only engage ability which is W. Just use it during her jump animation. If you won't manage to do it, you are going to lose the fight.”
Go Getter says “Really tough to lane against, tanky as hell early game and beats you at everything.
Just try to survive until level 6 and you can manage her a little better.”
SupportTooEz says “Don't detach during her R, and your R can kinda cancel out her engage. If you can R while she is trying to engage then you can kite her out with adc.”
Snoozy says “This should be easy match-up. When she goes in shield you or your teammate and destroy her. When she is on foot it's easier to hit her with your Q.”
terrybogar1 says “Rell is a skill matchup. She has a lot of CC, try to W her knockup. After that it comes down to skill and coordination to take her down.
”
DamselOfDistress says “Rell has a scary all in, but in lane she shouldn´t give you any trouble. She needs to get very close to do anything and you can punish that with fear.”
Dotje says “After she jumps in you can slow her down with your Q and use W to prevent her from using her stun. And you can shield your ally too! But her cc is still tough to deal with, so consider taking Mikaels blessing. Mikaels blessing will also help your ally to run out of her range. ”
Sinci says “Rell is just an annoying champion to play against since her all in opportunity with cc is massive and you do not have any abilities to stop that from happening which is dangerous.”
KeleiX13 says “In melee form, Rell is pretty slow and you should always go aggressive then since she doesn't have much. When she is mounted, however, be careful and space well so that she can't W you as easily. Poking her reduces the bonus movement speed that she gains from being mounted. Play carefully in lane as if she can't get any leads or falls behind in lane, it's hard for her to get ahead for the rest of the game unless someone on your team runs it down.”
Sinci says “Rell is just an annoying champion to play against since her all in opportunity with cc is massive and you do not have any abilities to stop that from happening apart from your ultimate which requires you to be close to her which can get really dangerous.”
Discord231 says “Esta tipa es indestructible, concéntrate en en el adc enemigo, si tu adc es de early, pueden ganar la linea, si no, juega defensivo. Escoge el item inicial en base a tu adc.”
Sinci says “Rell is just an annoying champion to play against since her all in opportunity with cc is massive and you do not have any abilities to stop that from happening which can get really dangerous.”
The Last Rakan says “Sim, você countera ela, aproveite que o kit dela dá slow nela mesma e vá direto em seu aliado, ela não consegue te acompanhar, mesmo com seu stum.”
GamingFrog says “You can completely shut down her engage and turn it against her. Flay her when she's in the middle of her (W) and cancel it. After doing this she will be very slow and easy to kill with your ADC.”
Starchase says “Try to poke her as much as you can lvl 1, even if she stuns you she can't do anything.
Lvl 2 don't detach from your ADC, she can cancel the animation of her W jump with her E, instantly stunning mid air.
Care of her lvl 6 all in, it doesn't seem to be that menacing but it's actually really dangerous.
Rush Mikael's Blessing.
You outscale her hard though”
Takitsu says “Thresh wins this lane, yay! Save your flay for Rell dismounting. Avoid all-in hooks onto Rell since she is tanky, instead opt for poking her down. Rell is most dangerous in lane when she is dismounted, your flay does not stop her from flipping, so stay away while she is off her horse. Post-6 treat her like a fiddlesticks, keep your flanks and sides warded for potential engages from her.”
unhben says “Horse jump! Horse stun! Horse pull you in! Thats it youre dead, just dodge this matchup if you can. Traps dont deter her from lunging at you for a hard engage. ”
losolkos says “i dont play much agains rell but try too dodge her W and you will be good then you can atack adc she is slow so she will be have a big problem to proteck her adc until she will have W again.
”
Discord231 says “Esta tipa es indestructible, concéntrate en en el adc enemigo, si tu adc es de early, pueden ganar la linea, si no, juega defensivo. Escoge el item inicial en base a tu adc. ”
unhben says “Hard to get onto or away from if she dives into your team or is peeling her team harder. A QSS might be necessary to let you get back to shielding everyone. ”
Coo1breeze says “If they picked Rell, then that means they are testing Rell in ranked and you just got a free lane. If you want to report, go ahead, she just cost her team bot lane.”
unhben says “Rell is literally the worst of both worlds combining Nautilus and Leona. Again, just play at the max range of your W and pray to god she doesnt try and dive onto you level 2.”
Bear Gummies says “Rell gets countered pretty hard by Janna. If she goes in, Janna can interrupt her dash with her Q, and if Rell ults Janna can also ult her away. I would suggest running comet to really punish her engage; since she is slow when dismounted, you and your adc can run her down and deal massive amounts of damage.”
Raizins says “Rell is basically a giant walking screw you button to your W + Q combo. She can interrupt it in mutiple ways, with her E stun, with her W2 mount attack, and her ulti. This is a matchup that only gets harder the better the Rell player is so I would play very carefully in lane and make sure not to use your combos for no reason.
On top of that she has a disgusting amount of CC so even if you combo her adc she will chain CC you till you die. ”
Jannito02 says “Rell will be one of your permabans when playing Yuumi. She has a good iniciation if she uses her W while mounted, using her R while dashing and also having her E. After a few seconds of her not being mounted, avoid getting out of your teammate, she can mount again with her W, winning movement speed and having a stun in her next basic attack. She can be super hard to beat in early game.”
EionThePepega says “Rell itself isnt normally the problem. Oh am I kidding, having three abilities that do AoE CC and a Q that destroys shield (cause that was needed for her kit) sounds like an extreme counter to your black shield. But fear not, for you don't need to engage, as long as you have wave control it'll be fine, but that will need the help of your Bot Laner.”
Magdaleno9 says “Very good rell players with an agressive ADC can be very dangerous. Take guardian and poke safely. Take tear if needed so you can heal more.”
The Lotus Queen says “Rell's chain CC is highly deadly and getting caught by her will almost always result in your death. Stay out of her range and rush boots to dodge/escape her W.”
vnillz says “I just hate Rell in general when I am playing Nami, her cc is outright annoying. Though, you can easily outpoke her. Especially if she jumps in for an engage, you can aqua prison her then AA. Also, do not be scared to AA Rell at times either, but do your best to play back vs her and pick safe engages.”
Jexeff says “One of the easiest matchups for Thresh. Similar to Leona, as long as you can flay her initial engage of Ferromancy: Crash Down, she becomes a sitting duck. The only thing you have to watch out for is if she chooses to engage with flash. With her most recent nerfs, you will have nothing to worry about.”
razzyhealer says “Hard-engage champion with heavy CC. Try to poke her with Q and avoid proccing Bop n' Block if possible. If Rell predicts your Bop n' Block passive, she can use an AoE CC to put your W on cooldown. Rell players are rare, but a huge threat.”
fishbully says “Rell is a strong support, however Janna will out-range and out-damage Rell because of a movement speed difference. Careful of Rell ult.”
itizhelia says “
Rell has an ability in her kit to make you fully useless for seconds if she manages to catch you. You have to AVOID THAT at all costs!
Whenever Rell engages on your ADC you should automatically dash in to peel your ADC off the enemy ADC. If you try to jump in for a quick peel (Like you would do vs Leona) Rell will usually use her linkability to do a stun on you and cancel your mid dash and then just throw her focus on you + enemy ADC will focus you. IN that case, just play around with your W as the only engage tool and E as a disengage tool. Usually, you win this lane by punishing Rell for missing her engage attempt.
”
CanadaJay says “So damn tanky. She's not very tanky early and is vulnerable against poke but once she gets her mythic good luck trying to kill her. Amazing engage level 3 and has so much CC. Ganks are very much needed.”
jessuva says “Rell so far has made my Soraka experience very annoying. She's super tanky, and she goes in on you and you can't do much to get out of it. Your silence is very helpful, and I find Rells getting rooted by Soraka fairly often, but if she goes in on you and she has a good enough ADC, you might be done for. ”
Titans Revenge says “Rell is still new to the game so her matchup will change. For now she is a very tanky support with a lot of CC similar to Leona. She doesn't do as much damage, but she does have an armor breaking ability that will allow her to engage, cc, and let her teammates do some heavy damage.”
RedNBlue says “You can just root her and watch her cry in her life support machine as she sits there trying to stun you and airborne you and she will not have too much fun. OBVIOusly don't get stunned or airborned by her as that would flop this to a haha jokes on you situation. you dying in the end.”
ANC Bence says “Same as Alistar, Rell relies heavily on his W which is a jump with some practice you can cancel all her engages with ease. But in late game team fights she will outclass you.”
YourCut says “Conq+Dom. Haven't played against her yet so I'm not quite certain, but I'm fairly certain if you can survive until 6 and you R during her W you can win all ins.”
DaejiBulgogi says “Rell's biggest threat is her ability to steal resistances and break shields. Since Thresh gains resistances from souls and has infinite scaling, Rell can constantly be taking those stats as well.
Despite those abilities, Thresh can easily counter Rell's engage by Flaying her jump. After that, Rell loses all mobility and becomes an easy target.”
EmpressBee says “Rell is very susceptible to being poked with W/E/autos. However, she does not need to land her human form W. Therefore, Nami must be aware of flash W or hexflash W. ”
NEED WATER says “Rell will show you what a real tank looks like if you're not careful. Her insane scaling and all-in potential puts her at the bottom of the list for people you want to jump on. ”
just_juniper says “I was honestly excited for Rell, her design looked amazing and her theme is just badass. But as I saw her crab-walk away after yet another failed W, my interest faded away. It's a free matchup for the time being, Rell desperately needs some attention. ”
kimjisoo8 says “Dodge her Q, sidestep her W and if she has E up never go between her and her ADC. You most definitely want to flash out of her ultimate.”
0mori says “I haven't played against her enough, but I believe that she will be a real big problem once when people start to master her. I believe her Q disables all shields too and her R is pretty annoying. She also knocks up with that horse thing which can get pretty annoying. ”
