Seraphine
Champions that beat Seraphine
- Bardsupport
Cosmic Binding (Q) stuns Seraphine before Beat Drop (E) lands, and Tempered Fate (R) stasis cancels her Encore (R) mid-channel. Bard chimes give him a roam-speed advantage that lets him collect a level and item lead while Seraphine stays planted in lane.
- Fiddlestickssupport
Seraphine stands far back to chain Stage Presence (P) — effigies grant deep vision that finds her position, and Crowstorm (R) channel from inside her hex one-shots her. Surround Sound (W) shield cannot tank the AOE duration.
- LeBlancmid
Surround Sound (W) shield delays but does not stop the second Sigil of Malice (Q) detonation — Distortion (W) in over the shield, Mimic (R) Q again, kill confirms. Beat Drop (E) only roots enemies who are already slowed, which LeBlanc avoids by opening with W.
- Lulusupport
Whimsy (W) polymorphs Seraphine mid Encore (R) channel — the ult cancels and the team loses the AOE charm. Help, Pix! (E) shields the ADC through High Note (Q) burst, and Glitterlance (Q) slow chains a Pix passive auto-attack chip from outside W range.
- Miliosupport
Warm Hugs (E) shields against the High Note (Q) burst and Breath of Life (R) cleanses every soft CC effect — the slow that triggers Beat Drop (E) root and the charm from Encore (R). Cozy Campfire (W) attack range buff keeps the ADC out of Seraphine's poke range.
- Neekosupport
Tangle-Barbs (E) outranges High Note (Q) poke at 1000 units and Shapesplitter (W) clone disguises Neeko's position so Pop Blossom (R) AOE lands on both bot opponents. Beat Drop (E) immobilize cannot trigger under E root and Encore (R) charm requires standing still.
- Nidaleejungle
Cross-map Javelin Toss (Q) snipes Seraphine while she channels High Note (Q) poke with no dash to break out. Encore (R) charm cannot trigger under spear root and Beat Drop (E) immobilize is too slow against cougar Pounce (W) reposition.
- Pantheonsupport
Comet Spear (Q) outranges High Note (Q) and Shield Vault (W) stuns through Surround Sound (W) shield. Aegis Assault (E) blocks damage from the front during the Beat Drop (E) cast window, and Pantheon's Mortal Will passive empowers an instant kill on Seraphine pre-3.
- Threshsupport
Death Sentence (Q) lands outside Seraphine's 800 W range pre-6 and Seraphine has no dash to dodge. Flay (E) chain-knockback or Dark Passage (W) lantern bait pulls her into The Box (R) prison before Encore (R) is online to charm them off.
- Varusbot
Chain of Corruption (R) roots Seraphine through Surround Sound (W) and locks her for the full chain, denying the Encore (R) windup. She has no dash, so Piercing Arrow (Q) at 925 and Hail of Arrows (E) grind her down while she walks up for High Note (Q) at 900.
- Vijungle
Vi Cease and Desist (R) is point-and-click and unstoppable, so Seraphine Surround Sound (W) shield cannot stop the lock-on engage and Encore (R) charm cannot fire mid-knock-up. Relentless Force (E) and Denting Blows (W) armor shred chunk her low HP after R.
- Xin Zhaojungle
Crescent Guard R knocks Seraphine out of the arena and locks her ADC inside the 1v1. Surround Sound W shield breaks fast under sustained autos, and Beat Drop E slow does not stop Audacious Charge mid-dash because the dash is uninterruptible.
Champions Seraphine beats
- Ashebot
High Note (Q) and Beat Drop (E) chip Ashe from outside Volley (W) range. Encore (R) AOE charm cancels Enchanted Crystal Arrow (R) setup and Surround Sound (W) shield plus heal denies Ashe the trade-back kiting damage.
- Blitzcranksupport
Rocket Grab (Q) is a 1079-range skill-shot with a long animation telegraph and a 20s cooldown at rank 1. Surround Sound (W) at 800 range covers the ADC before the hook lands — the shield eats the pull damage and the speed pulls the ADC out before Power Fist (E) chains.
- Brandsupport
Sear (Q) is a skill-shot stun on Blaze-stacked targets and Pillar of Flame (W) only lands after a short delay. Surround Sound (W) shields the AD carry through the burst, and Beat Drop (E) slows Brand then roots him on the echoed cast, since he has no dash to leave the line.
- Leonasupport
Zenith Blade (E) is her only gap-closer outside flash and Solar Flare (R) has a delayed AOE telegraph. Beat Drop (E) fired on Leona's E startup slows her mid-dash, and the echoed second cast roots her: Surround Sound (W) hastes allies, it does not slow her for you.
- Melmid
Rebuttal (W) reflects projectiles and grants her Move Speed, but it is brief and costs 38s at rank 1: wait it out and Beat Drop (E) slow into root lands anyway. Encore (R) charms her from across the map, so she cannot fire Golden Eclipse (R) on your Overwhelm stacks.
- Rakansupport
Grand Entrance (W) is a delayed knock-up dash with a clear telegraph and Battle Dance (E) needs an ally target. Beat Drop (E) catches Rakan in the post-landing animation, and its own slow turns into a root on the echoed cast, while Encore (R) charm stops The Quickness (R).
