Now, It time to look at some tips and tricks we have found especially for you which help you to master Xayah quickly, 

Wild Rift Xayah gameplay tips and tricks 

 

1. Xayah becomes untargetable while casting her ultimate ability. So, you can also use Feather Strom (ultimate) to dodge enemies target locking abilities like Zed’s Death Mark and Fizz’s chum the water. 
2. Xayah second ability (Deadly plumage) also gives her movement speed when she hits the first target. You can also use this ability to chase down enemies.
3. Don’t use Bladecaller immediately after casting the Feather Strom (Ultimate). Attack the target enemies with basic attacks and ability until you get enough feathers, then cast the Bladecaller to get the maximum benefit. 
4. Xayah’s feathers follow the direction she is facing when using her third ability (Bladecaller). You can use flash then Bladecaller to change the direction of the feathers. Only use your flash if you are sure you can eliminate the enemy, or your team is nearby for your support.
