Sejuani Power Spikes (Patch 26.20)

Jungle

When Sejuani Jungle gets stronger, in the order it happens in a typical ranked game: ability unlocks from the most common skill order, item spikes at the median minute players finish them, and the game length Sejuani wins most.

  1. Lv 3
    All three basic abilities at level 3
    Sejuani's full combo is online — the first point where trading all-in is realistic.
  2. Lv 6
    Ultimate rank 1 at level 6
    The biggest early spike: look for a kill or a roam as soon as Sejuani hits it.
  3. Lv 11
    Ultimate rank 2 at level 11
    Lower ultimate cooldown means more fights Sejuani can start or win.
  4. Lv 16
    Ultimate rank 3 at level 16
    Lower ultimate cooldown means more fights Sejuani can start or win.
  5. 0.2 min

  6. 11.6 min
    Two items at 11.6 min
    Mosstomper SeedlingHeartsteelMosstomper Seedling + Heartsteel: the window to group and take objectives.
  7. 20.8 min
    Three-item core at 20.8 min
    Mosstomper SeedlingHeartsteelUnending DespairMosstomper Seedling + Heartsteel + Unending Despair completes Sejuani's core build.
  8. 30 min

Item timings are medians: half of players finish later. Fall behind in farm and every item spike moves back with it.

Play to these strengths

  • Sejuani brings crowd control (percentile 72): start the fight or follow up on a teammate's engage.

MetaBot Tips
  • Sejuani is able to soak a lot of damage, making them much more viable in the frontline taking damage to protect less tanky teammates.
  • Sejuani has more health regen than most champions, making their playstyle optimal for aggressive trades in lane.
  • Sejuani has more base attack damage than most champions, so they should be trading autos aggressively in lane.

Playing Sejuani

  • Use Arctic Assault to escape bad situations, interupt channeled spells or chase runners.
  • Melee allies can stack Frost for your Permafrost, keep an eye on who they are attacking.
  • Save Glacial Prison for encounters where you have teammates present to take advantage of it.

Playing Against Sejuani

  • Dodging Arctic Assault and Glacial Prison can give you a huge advantage.
  • Focus on avoiding the second swing of Winter's Wrath which carries the brunt of the damage.
  • Melee enemies can also stack Frost for Sejuani, be very careful around them.
