"The waters brim in excitement!" Yemoja Support Guide Patch 9.6

Just a long term player here to make guides to help friends of mine, if they benefit anyone else too then even better! This guide is a WIP, I intend to come back and add more later, but for now it should be serviceable!

During the earlygame you should be using Yemoja's first ability nearly exclusively with a few of her 3 woven in when beneficial. Her 2 is an amazing skill but it isn't worth the omi spent until leveled more, at least 3-4 points into it.

Yemoja's first passive is her omi system. Instead of mana or cooldowns, all of Yemoja's non ultimate abilities are solely contingent on having enough of her special resource known as omi to cast them. You gain more omi capacity upon leveling up, so the higher your level the more you can cast without having to stop. Omi regenerates over time, with the rate increasing based on your cooldown reduction. Any items that provide mana will convert that value into additional health, and any mp5 will become hp5. The bonus health isn't significant enough to focus on or build for, but it does mean a nice little bit of bonus sustain and tankiness. I highly recommend you pace your casting so that you're never completely out, as otherwise you're a bit useless. Try to keep at least 2 or 3 omi on you at all times in case you need to use an ability in an emergency, but make sure you use as much as necessary if it can secure a kill or save someone.

Yemoja's second passive is healing for any ally god you basic attack, so make sure to use it to patch up anyone near you that's not full hp whenever you have the opportunity to do so. It's a heal over time and it does not stack, so each ally only really needs one auto on them every seven seconds.

Yemoja's 1 should be your bread and butter the entire match for single target peeling, setting up kills, and clearing minions. It hits in a larger area on targets who are near you, so try to get up close and personal when you have the opportunity such as when ulting a target, when only a few enemies are around, or when peeling for an ally who is nearby. When you hit a distant target with her stun, try your best to place a 3 on them before the stun can end to throw the enemy towards your team while they cannot dodge.

Yemoja's 2 is amazing healing and shielding skill that's used best when in a large fight with multiple allies as it will bounce between multiple targets, including yourself. Focus on using it when multiple people need help as your 1 can only feasibly hit one or two targets at one due to it's size. The shield does not stack, so if possible you want to wait until it wears off or breaks to recast. Sometimes someone is taking too much damage to pace it however, it those circumstances just mash the button lol. The heal is a skillshot, so if you are uncertain about hitting a fast target then simply aim at a nearby ally instead and it should bounce to them automatically.

Yemoja's 3 places a deployable that moves all gods who touch it, friend and foe alike, and is her most flexible skill. You can push with it if it is placed near you, or at further ranges it will pull towards you making it perfect for saving distant allies or pulling enemies into danger. Allies who pass through gain speed and protections Capable of being used for rotations, saving allies, dislocating enemies, and also of being completely misused and ruining a fight if you aren't careful. Try to use it once when leaving fountain if you have enough omi just for a little boost, especially if an ally can use the speed too. Use it to throw allies out of harm's way when they are stunned, place it at the foot of skills like Da Ji or Heimdallr ult to throw people safely out,at the end of a narrow pathway in the jungle to impede an enemy from escaping, or on an enemy to throw them out of position whenever they get stunned or are moving predictably enough to be sure you can place it correctly.

Yemoja's ult seems fairly plain in it's effect but actually does a fair bit. It deploys two walls, standing inside of their bounds increases your omi regen rate, and at the end of it's duration it slows enemies caught inside and damages them a decent amount. The walls only prevent enemies and their attacks from passing, allies can come and go freely. Ideally you want to use this skill in a position where a wall in the environment blocks one side off, so no enemies can escape. Once you have an enemy caught inside you want to stun them as much as possible, body block their escape, put your 3 at the exit to hold them inside, anything to contain them until they die. You can also use it just to block things or to generate omi to heal more if necessary, it's very nice to prevent Fenrir from carrying an ally in his mouth for example. This ability has a comically long cooldown, so make sure you use it at the appropriate timing to get any sort of value or you'll be without it for nearly two and a half minutes. Don't nurse it too badly though, if you don't use it often enough that's the same result as misusing it.
