Kha'Zix vs Rammus

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Prioritize isolation picks and fog control to punish Rammus's grouped playstyle and slow clear speed.
Avoid early river fights without vision as Rammus can punish isolated Kha'Zix with (Q) engage and (E) taunt.
Use Kha'Zix's stronger dueling and objective control to snowball through picks rather than direct 5v5 fights.

Jungle Plan

Full clear camps that allow isolated fights and look for invades when Rammus is on the opposite side or after he uses (Q).
Fight for river control and Scuttle only when you have vision and lane priority to avoid Rammus's taunt setups.
Use fog and evolved (R) stealth to set up picks around dragon and Rift Herald before starting objectives.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights early where Rammus can engage with (Q) and lock down with (E).
Be cautious contesting objectives without vision as Rammus can force smite fights with his gank threat.
Low-health clears put Kha'Zix at risk of Rammus counter-invades; only contest camps with health and vision advantage.

Early game

Start with a path that enables early isolation on camps away from Rammus to avoid his gank threat.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to prevent being collapsed on by Rammus.
Avoid extended invades early since Rammus clears slower but has strong gank angles with (Q) and (E).

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R) stealth and first evolution, enabling stronger picks and resets; use fog to isolate and burst targets.
First damage item spike amplifies isolation burst; invade and punish Rammus's camps when lanes can't collapse.
Respect Rammus's power spike when he has (Q) rolling engage and (E) taunt ready to punish overextensions.

Win conditions

Convert isolation picks into dragon and Rift Herald control by clearing vision and forcing Rammus's team to group.
Use evolved (E) resets and (R) stealth to maintain tempo and counter-gank Rammus's early pressure.
Deny Rammus free farm by invading camps when lanes cannot collapse, snowballing leads into objective control and skirmishes favoring isolated targets.
