sorry to fill up your comments, but there's something I think you should add to the guide. Zz'Rot Portal is like a split pusher, and can be used defensively too. e.g. you lost all your outer turrets, and the enemy team is trying to double siege mid and top. I place the portal behind the top tower to push out the wave while i help prevent a successful siege mid. all the while i'm getting gold from top and preventing the enemy team from getting any objective/gold. After they're gone, I go bot lane push it out. and now all lanes are pushed back allowing us to yet again gain map control. I tried this is my last game, and it was really strong I felt. Turned a losing game into a winning one. BTW, here's the game that I did it in.

P.S. What's your summoner name, and your region? I can't seem to find you.


All comments are welcome, yes spot on it can be used defensively. Although i believe it is stronger when it can pressure enemy towers, in some losing situations, placing it under your tower/defensively is definitely a good decision. Thanks for the point out, and match history looking good.

My summoner name is "LoL Beats" from Oceania

How does doing that save 40 mana?

Also, please don't rep people just for upvoting, do it if they actually provide meaningful feedback.


Hi Wayne,
How Tahm's minion swallowing works is if you use Q first than press W while in mid air, it actually gives you a free cost of W (90 mana) and only registers the Q (50 mana) cost. - The CD on W proceeds as usual (after spiting minion out)

This is really efficient and you want to always be swallowing minions with Q first, unless in rare occasions where you are full mana and need the Q up immediately for a play. Also another cool thing is that your Q goes on CD after you Q-W, so you can hold onto the minion for the full duration until your Q is back up, then through your Q then W(minion) onto the champ, which results in quite a lot of burst.

Thanks for the tip, i'm new to this community and that seems logical
