Keep Vex visible afore committing. Th' second Bot-course champion and nigh th' ship Jungler can change whether th' same engage be seaworthy.
Trick reference
Trick reference Data Dragon 16.20.1
Wait fer reload (s) / Cost / Charted reach (units) Data Dragon 16.20.1
Kled rides his trusty steed, Skaarl, who takes damage for him. When Skaarl's health depletes, Kled dismounts. While dismounted, Kled's abilities change and he deals less damage to champions. Kled can restore Skaarl's courage by fighting enemies. At maximum courage, Kled remounts with a portion of Skaarl's health.
Kled throws a bear trap that damages and hooks an enemy champion. If shackled for a short duration, the target takes additional physical damage and is yanked toward Kled. When dismounted, this ability is replaced by Pocket Pistol, a ranged gun blast that knocks back Kled and restores courage.
Wait fer reload (s) 11/10/9/8/7 · Charted reach (units) 800Kled gains massive attack speed for four attacks. The fourth attack deals more damage.
Wait fer reload (s) 13/12/11/10/9Kled dashes, dealing physical damage and gaining a short burst of speed. Kled can cast this ability again to dash back through his initial target, dealing the same damage.
Wait fer reload (s) 13/12/11/10/9 · Charted reach (units) 550Kled and Skaarl charge to a location, leaving a speed-granting trail behind them and gaining a shield. Skaarl locks onto and rams the first enemy champion encountered.

Whenever a nearby enemy dashes, Vex applies a mark that can be consumed for bonus damage that also reduces the cooldown of her empowered state.

Judge th' whole course or sea chart state, nay only personal kills. Pick th' situation closest to th' present battle.
Deny space wit' yer course partner, but keep th' carry moored to th' wave instead o' roaming at every opportunity.
Move first aboard wit' an ally, establish vision and protect th' course yer crew will use to enter.
Set sail only when crewmates can follow, then change to peel if an foe reaches th' protected carry.
Hold th' trick that makes foes respect yer course and trade when both Bot-course partners be shipshape.
Recall and move on seaworthy wave timings; an unsupported roam can cost th' carry an entire wave or a dive.
Control one approach and keep enough protection fer th' foe's most likely engage.
Stay fer a crashing wave, block a dive and avoid spending th' key defensive trick on low-value poke.
Enter darkness wit' another sailor and ward th' nearest useful entrance instead o' reaching fer deep vision.
Peel first aboard and punish overextension. A blind engage rarely repairs a losing battle.
Pings, movement and prizes
Turn ship's intelligence into a shared decision. Move wit' an ally and preserve th' tool that makes th' next aboard fight seaworthy.
Pings create a shared course; they do nay replace checking waves, vision and who can move.
'Round a minute afore Dragon, ping th' course, spend doubloons if needed and make sure Bot and Mid know whether they can move.
Walk wit' th' Jungler or another ally. Sweep one course, place useful entrance vision and ne'er face-inspect alone.
Inspect nigh th' ship waves and foe positions. Hold th' spell that either starts a reachable fight or protects yer main damage dealer.
Keep enemies astern from th' seaworthy entrance, mark th' reachable threat and avoid chasing so far across th' waters that Dragon be left unprotected.
Later prizes: Use th' same pattern fer Rift Herald or Baron: communicate first aboard, move through controlled vision wit' an ally, then choose engage or peel afore th' fight begins.
Arrr, keep preparing
