Tips
How to Play
Poison Attack stacks and slows, so keep it on the enemy mid to force them out of lane.
Corrosive Skin punishes anyone who trades hits with you, so abuse the armor and magic resistance it gives.
Nethertoxin applies break, so use it to disable enemy passives in fights.
Viper is a lane bully designed around sustained harassment, so convert early dominance into a mid game snowball.
