Guide to Synergizing Katarina and Rumble

Tips for Playing as Katarina with Rumble

Picking up Daggers will significantly reduce Shunpo's cooldown.

Try waiting until the other team is distracted with fighting your team, and use Shunpo to teleport into the fray and unleash a devastating Death Lotus.

Using Shunpo on an allied Champion, Dagger, or minion can be a great escape tactic.

Advice to Understand How Rumble Will Play

Try and keep targets in the range of your Flamespitter. It can deal a lot of damage overtime.

If you are winning a fight you can use your ultimate to wall off an escape path.

Try and pace yourself to stay in the Danger Zone to maximize your effectiveness. It is easy to overheat if you rapidly use your abilities.
