MetaBot Tips
  • Camille has a much higher early late game win rate than their late game win rate. Take advantage of this by playing aggressive early on and trying to snowball through kills.
  • Camille has more base armor than most champions, which makes them excellent in the early game against attack damage type enemies.
  • Camille has more health regen than most champions, making their playstyle optimal for aggressive trades in lane.
  • Camille has more base attack damage than most champions, so they should be trading autos aggressively in lane.

Playing Camille

  • Try waiting until the other team is distracted with fighting your team, and use Hookshot to pick off vulnerable targets.
  • Use the CC from your abilities to land both of your Precision Protocol attacks on enemies.

Playing Against Camille

  • Camille's shield only works against one damage type, so hit her when she's vulnerable to your damage.
  • The Hextech Ultimatum has a very short range to cast, so try to flash away from her before she gets close.
