Vex Counters
Learn 's counters and discover matchups where they have an advantage! When you're starting a game of League of Legends you should always keep in mind if you'll be at an advantage or disadvantage against your opponent, so you can know whether to bully them or play safe. You can find detailed breakdowns of each matchup on CounterStats, and you can also check out some Vex guides to see how to build and play against other champions you may find yourself up against!
This counter data is for Vex Mid in Plat+ games. The percent shown is the enemy champion's counter rating against Vex. Counter rating is our own statistic that factors in counter kills, overall kills, early lead ratio, comeback ratio, and win percent to give the whole picture of that champion's effectiveness as a counter pick.

Nearby enemy champions that dash or blink, as well as targets hit by Looming Darkness, will be marked with Gloom for 6 seconds. Vex's next basic attack, which becomes non-projectile, Mistral Bolt, or Personal Space against a marked target will consume the mark to deal 30−180 (+25% of ability power) bonus magic damage (depending on level) and refund 25% of Doom's cooldown.
Against marked non-champions, Gloom deals 40 / 45 / 50 / 55 / 60% damage (depending on level) and refunds 10% of Doom's cooldown.
Looming Darkness will cast at max range if cast beyond it.
Shadow stops upon colliding with an enemy champion, marking them for 4 seconds and revealing them for the duration. Shadow Surge can be recast while the target is marked.
RECAST: Vex commands Shadow to pull her towards the marked target with displacement immunity, upon arrival consuming the mark and dealing them 150 / 250 / 350 (+50% of ability power) magic damage.
If the marked target dies within 6 seconds of being hit by Shadow Surge, Vex can cast Shadow Surge again at no additional cost for the next 12 seconds after 0.5 seconds.
