Alistar Guide

Key Insights
P
's heal is doubled for nearby allied champions.
Q
can be used during
W
to cancel its knockback and instead knock up the enemies in the AoE.
E
will only stack if an enemy champion is being damaged by it.
On cast,
R
cleanses Alistar of ALL crowd control.
Strengths
Has a very strong level 2/3 with
W
+
Q
.
W
can be used into a thick wall to hold a target in place rather than knock them back, allowing Alistar to extend his CC chain.
Excels at roaming with his CC tools as well as turret diving and frontlining with
R
.
Synergizes well with
Locket of the Iron Solari
,
Zeke's Convergence
,
Knight's Vow
,
Abyssal Mask
, and
Vigilant Wardstone
. Can opt for
Evenshroud
or
Turbo Chemtank
when needed.
Weaknesses
Very weak at level 1 since he only has access to either
Q
or
W
when his combo needs both, and can be heavily punished during this time.
Q
and
W
both have a 14 second cooldown at rank 1. Once used, he can be punished.
W
+
Q
combo can be dodged with mobility spells.
