Gwen vs Singed

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

This is a scale-focused matchup where Gwen must manage extended fights and avoid early burst before item spikes.
Gwen should maintain medium lane pressure to prevent Singed from safely proxying or disrupting waves.
Prioritize reaching your AP item spikes to leverage stronger dueling and side-lane presence.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades only when (Q) is fully stacked and (W) is available to block Singed's retaliation.
Use (E) to dash in and out, keeping Singed inside your mist zone for extended damage.
Punish Singed when he wastes (W) or (E) by committing to longer trades where your AP scaling and healing outpace his damage.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (W) is down as you are vulnerable to Singed's ranged retaliation and crowd control.
Avoid engaging before (Q) is stacked to prevent unfavorable burst trades.
Watch for (E) combined with (W) slow to disrupt your positioning during fights.

Early game

Focus on stacking (Q) safely through the early wave without committing to trades before it is ready.
Use (E) to control spacing and avoid walking through (Q) and (W) slow.
Avoid chasing Singed through his poison to prevent getting grounded or flung into bad positions.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to slow and chase Singed, turning extended trades into kills after stacking (Q).
After your first and second AP items, pressure side lanes and teamfights where (W) can deny Singed's outside damage.
Respect Singed's level 6 (R) spike which grants him speed and durability; avoid chasing through poison during this time.

Win conditions

Win by reaching your AP item spikes and forcing extended fights inside your (W) mist where Singed cannot retaliate effectively.
Deny Singed's proxy and wave disruption by maintaining wave control and punishing his cooldowns.
Use (R) to chase and lock down Singed in side-lane duels or teamfights, leveraging your scaling damage and healing to secure kills.
