Kennen vs Singed

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Kennen should use ranged poke and mark stacking to control the lane against Singed's melee disruptor style.
Prioritize high lane pressure to deny Singed a passive lane and prevent proxy or wave disruption.

Trading pattern

Trade short bursts with (Q) and (W) to build marks and avoid prolonged fights where Singed's poison and (E) can punish.
Punish Singed when he chases through your poke by stacking marks and disengaging with (E).
Avoid using (E) aggressively without vision, as it leaves you vulnerable to ganks or flings.

Danger windows

Kennen is vulnerable after using (E) forward without vision; avoid overextending to prevent ganks or flings.
Singed is dangerous when he has multiple marks stacked and (R) active, enabling durable disruption.
Avoid grouped positioning when (R) is down to reduce risk from Singed's disruptive engages.

Early game

Use (Q) and (W) to poke and stack marks early, avoiding extended trades until (E) is ready for safety.
Keep wave on your side to limit Singed's proxy paths and force him into awkward farm.
Preserve health and cooldowns to reach level 6 with (R) available for kill pressure.

Power spikes

At level 6, (R) enables strong all-ins and teamfight control; preserve health and look for flank or flash angles.
Flash plus (R) windows create reliable teamfight impact; hold resources for decisive fights rather than low-value trades.
Respect Singed's level 6 (R) speed and durability spike by avoiding chase traps through poison and (W) slow.

Win conditions

Use ranged poke and mark stacking to deny Singed calm scaling and proxy opportunities.
Reach level 6 with health and cooldowns to leverage (R) for kill pressure and teamfight influence.
Secure flank angles or flash engage to maximize (R) impact and convert lane pressure into objective and teamfight wins.
