Guide to Countering Kog'Maw as Sivir

Tips for Playing as Sivir against Kog'Maw

Sivir's Boomerang Blade returns to her after reaching the max range, so you can shift position to hit enemies who would otherwise have evaded it.

Try saving Spell Shield for enemy abilities that can disable you such as stuns and roots.

Ricochet resets Sivir's basic attack timer on activation, so activating this immediately after landing a normal basic attack will maximize damage output.

Kog'Maw doesn't have a good escape ability, so he is especially prone to ganks.
