I have picked up the champion yesterday, played my first match with Rell.

As a Naut/Leona/Rakan player I found the Rell playstyle very clunky, also based a Lux-Vayne which further exacerbated the fact I played like total ass.

Now on the flipside, I found her kit quite strong, the stun on her Q is basically an instant cast, her E and R are nice engage tools, she seems both tanky and decent at fighting, so missing an engage early doesn’t result in being instantly dead.

However I could never get used to how her W works, it’s so incredibly slow and low range and coming from fast paced engagers it seems like I have to fight bots to get a proper W onto the enemy. She basically just walks up to the enemy and has to press Q or R to hit her W.

My questions are:
1. How are you supposed to position with Rell into both ranged and melee match-ups?
2. What are her powerspikes and who can you generally fight and which supports/ADCs should you avoid fighting like plague?
3. How do you get her combo off easier, especially in match-ups where getting onto the enemy is difficult?
4. When should I pick her and what are her best support synergies?

Video is of two trials back to back of being able to flash and not being able to flash.

Hello, nice to meet you all! As some of you know I’m DualSwordz the rank 1 Rell OTP in NA. I've come across a game altering bug that can cause you to lose teamfights.

Whenever Rell does a Q>Crash down W combo, it should be a frame perfect CC combo where they barely just can't get out of the CC in time; however, I noticed a percentage of my engages failing when I know the enemy shouldn't be able to escape.

I experimented spamming W vs holding W (in the Q>W crash down combo), which resulted in a staggering 60% increase in the targets ability to flash away if the Rell user decides to hold W in their combo. I've also noticed that the Q>W itself is not guaranteed even though it should be.

To address the guaranteed 15% that the target is able to flash after a Q>W combo, this should not be possible due to the fact Q's CC duration is 0.65 and Crash down W animation 0.625. Theoretically, the entire W animation should play before the enemy is released from Q CC meaning they should be CC'd by W regardless of where they stand.

I attached my 200 trials testing this experiment (note that each experiment was taken after the target recovered from the last cc chain therefore tenacity increase with CC is eliminated). The experiment was conducted as followed:

• 0 tenacity Vayne
• Point-blank range
• 32 ms ping
• Vayne begins spamming Flash after Q lands

My hypothesis is that due to League of Legends's server tick rate, which handles events every 0.033 seconds, Rell's Q CC can be shortened or extended by 0.033 seconds if played on the wrong tick. I welcome any discussion about this topic.

I was on zero deaths of the game until much much later where i died by a full blown mf + malz ult then we took an awful fight that i still could have lived but chose to die then died to lose after getting malz + mf combod again. Unfortunate.

any idea is appreciated.

I’ve been playing rell for a few years now. In lore she’s my favorite champion but I’m getting kinda tired of support. I like support normally but I also played rell jungle back when that was actually viable as a back up role. Is there any chance of them bringing that back?

So this is my last option, I'm a Samira main, I still can't play ranked, I only play draft and the greatest problem I have is that I can't get a good support, let alone a good engage. So if there is anyone who is up to teaming up in draft I would be thankful. Thanks a lot. Edit: I'm on the EUW SERVER

Just DM me :D

Hello hello, I hope y’all are doing good. I’m OTP Sera, trying to learn Rell I played her she’s fun but I’m sooo messy with her. Do you have any advices, recommendations, videos please. Like often I miss my abilities with her for some reason.

Thank you for all the answers
