Introduction

Kali, The Goddness of Destruction


In this guide I'll show you guys the might of Kali and how to play with her.



Ahoy, me hearties! Today i gonna introduce you one of the most powerful junglers of the lategame, but don't be glum, it's no problem in her early game.

Before becoming a terror, she's an annoying jungler that makes you ward your lane and be aware of any suspicious movement. Her 1st ability Nimble Strike can be used both to approuch or disengage, used with her 3rd ability Incense, she stuns her enemies and also takes an advantage of power to deal even more damage that has synergy with her 2nd ability Lash to burst and bleed foes until they reach 0 hp. If this isn't enough, her ultimate Destruction makes her becoming immortal for a few seconds, enough to save her in crucial moments.

Is she op, isn't? The actual meta's looking for AA junglers, such as Bakasura, Mercury, Arachne, Vamana and Ao Kuang*, and of course, Kali has her special place here, since she's a carry jungler.

The season 6 changed the impact of team fights a lot, now the Fire Giant has more life, deals more damage and cannot be done by one person (usually carries). The game's vision is more important than ever and shotcallers are good welcome.

*See my Ao Kuang Guide for jungling here
