Neeko
Hailing from a long lost tribe of vastaya, Neeko can blend into any crowd by borrowing the appearances of others, even absorbing something of their emotional state to tell friend from foe in an instant. No one is ever sure where—or who—Neeko might be...

Xin Zhao Early Game
Neeko mid lane is burst-combo trade. Start Doran's Ring + 2 pots. Push wave with Q for first 2 levels — force enemy under tower and deny CS.
Level 2 spike: Q + W or Q + E combo can chunk 30%+ HP. Track jungler — burst mages die to ganks before Flash. Ward river at 2:30.
Mid Game
Luden's Companion + Sorcerer's Shoes is your spike. Neeko bursts squishies from 600+ range. Roam side lanes post-6 — your R closes long-range pickoff windows.
Shadowflame 2nd item for magic pen on shielded targets. Zhonya's 3rd vs dive comp. Track Flash CDs — Flash + R is the kill window.
Late Game
Backline AP burst. Stand mid-line at 700+ range. Combo priority targets (ADC/mid). Rabadon's Deathcap 4th-5th item = 35% AP increase.
Void Staff vs MR stacking. Zhonya's bait combos with full burst. Avoid getting caught alone — squishy + no escape = dead.
Win Condition
Burst one target → snowball pickoffs → close before scaling. Neeko carries by deletion, not by sustained damage.
Win: 3+ R kills + 2+ roams kills. Lose to: assassin counters (Zed, Talon) — need Zhonya's 1st item.
Power Spikes
Level 2 — full burst combo unlocked. Level 6 — R for guaranteed kill window. Luden's Companion (1st item) — wave clear + burst proc. Sorcerer's Shoes — magic pen for true damage burst. Level 11 — R rank 2 + 2-3 items = 100% HP delete on squishies. Rabadon's Deathcap (5th item) — 35% AP amplifier.
Tips & Combos
Combos:
- Q -> W (or E) -> auto + Comet proc + R = full burst combo
- Hit Q on enemy minion line to bait approach, then full combo
- Flash + R for guaranteed cross-screen execute
Anti-tips:
- Don't engage solo without burst combo ready
- Don't waste mana — manage for the actual kill window
- Don't ult full-HP target — wait for burst threshold
Pro tricks:
- Arcane Comet keystone procs every Q if landed at max range
- Push wave under tower mid-game, then roam — mid lane unwarded
- Stack passive procs BEFORE the actual combo by pre-poking
