Vex vs Twisted Fate

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Vex is a high-agency burst mage who must use her passive fear to control Twisted Fate's all-in threat.
Pressure Twisted Fate early to deny him the calm lane state he needs to safely use Gold Card and roam.

Trading pattern

Use passive fear to start trades and proc Electrocute before Twisted Fate can respond.
Punish Twisted Fate when his Gold Card (Twisted Fate W) is on cooldown or poorly timed.
Avoid committing when Gold Card is ready, as it enables his stun and follow-up damage.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Twisted Fate has Gold Card ready and nearby follow-up, as his stun can set up lethal trades.
When Twisted Fate's R is available, hard push and ping danger to punish his roams.
Vex is vulnerable when her fear passive is baited or unavailable and her R is down, avoid all-ins then.

Early game

Use passive fear to force short trades and punish Twisted Fate when he tries to farm with Twisted Fate Q.
Avoid extended duels without R ready, as Vex is immobile outside ultimate resets.
Maintain lane pressure to prevent Twisted Fate from safely setting up Gold Card trades or roaming.

Power spikes

Respect Twisted Fate's level 6 Twisted Fate R (Twisted Fate R) for global map pressure and potential roams.
Vex's major spikes are level 6 R and first completed AP burst item, enabling stronger all-ins and resets.
Twisted Fate's first completed AP or utility item increases his pick threat but is less impactful than his R.

Win conditions

Use passive fear consistently to win trades and deny Twisted Fate safe farming and Gold Card setups.
Punish Twisted Fate's cooldowns on Gold Card and R by forcing trades or freezing the wave.
Reach level 6 and first AP item to all-in with R resets, snowballing lane control and limiting Twisted Fate's roam impact.
