Introduction Top
Hello everyone,
Most of us are still figuring out how Misha's AI works as the duo Rexxar and Misha have a brand new gameplay. So why not study the matter in depth and make a guide to figure it out!
It's my first guide and I've just refactored it to make it shorter and more to the point, let me know what you think and vote for it if you fancy :-)
Without further delay let's dive into Misha's artificial brain.
Basic behavior Top
Pathfinding : the art of getting lost
Misha can take another path than you to reach a location, target or when you call her back, this depends on your positioning and on the obstacles on her way :
- She takes the shortest path
- If the shortest path goes through the enemy team ... she'll go through
- If Rexxar is CC and she is on the move, she will not wait for him
- Needless to say, she can be CC
Keep up the pace : Misha's variable movement speed
Misha can move faster when she is near Rexxar, that allows her to position between him and the target :
- It happens when Rexxar is between her and the right click location
- It is about a 10-20% speed increase
- It can be used to position her in front of a target while chasing
- It can play against you when fleeing as she will move in front of Rexxar and expose him to your pursuers (as mentioned by Whiskeybuda)
Passive mode : Misha stays near you and do not fight
|
- Right clicks tell Misha where to go
- Misha doesn't attack enemies when you do
- Misha will attack what is in her melee range |
Active mode : follow and attack until you right click a target
|
- Misha goes where you right click
- Misha will auto attack the same target as Rexxar
- When Rexxar auto engage a target, Misha will move to it and attack too
- Misha will not engage if you go through a minion wave without attacking
- Misha will stick to a target when you right click it (see below) |

and
Experience on death :
- Rexxar dies, Misha dies too : 100% experience
- Misha dies : 25% experience
- Rexxar dies while Misha is dead : 75% experience

I hope you enjoyed this guide and that it brought some insight to the understanding of Misha's AI.
I wish you all a pleasant day :-)
