When Safe attached poke that also sustains Yuumi and her anchor

1. WAttach to ally→
2. QSteer for 1 second to empower→
3. EShield and attack speed

Tip Yuumi cannot use basic attacks while attached. Guide Q for at least 1 second before hitting a champion to gain the empowered damage and slow; the current passive can also trigger from an ability hit, healing Yuumi and her anchor.

When Buffing Yuumi's anchor before a short coordinated trade

1. WAttach→
2. EBuff→
3. QEmpowered

Tip While Yuumi is attached, E's shield, attack speed, and movement speed also apply to her anchor. Empowered Q then adds ranged poke and a slow.

When Locking a target down during a fight or gank

1. WAttach to a frontline ally→
2. RSteer seven waves→
3. EShield and speed during channel→
4. WReattach to another ally

Tip R no longer roots enemies. Each wave stacks slow and damage on enemies and heals allies; while attached Yuumi can steer it and may cast W or E during the channel.

When Switching allies to reposition and kite while R continues

1. RStart waves→
2. WAttach to engaging ally→
3. EShield and movement speed→
4. WMove to safer ally

Tip W and E remain available during R. Keep the wave aimed through the fight while supporting the engager, then reattach to a safer backline ally when the frontline position becomes dangerous.
