Playstyle Strengths

Vale works well with frontline Tanks like Lolita and Belerick who can protect him while he continuously pokes the enemy.

Weaknesses

Vale is countered by agile Assassins that can become untargetable like Hayabusa and Ling, as it will be difficult to catch them with his CC while they can eliminate Vale easily with their high damage.

Top 3 Tips for Playing Vale

  1. Clear waves fast, then rotate to help jungle or roam — mana efficiency matters more than chasing kills.
  2. Build Clock of Destiny or Lightning Truncheon first for power spikes at mid-game.
  3. Always stay behind your tank in team fights — your job is burst damage, not absorbing skillshots.
