How to play Yemoja

Yemoja is a ranged mage from the Yoruba pantheon who deals magical damage. Top players play Yemoja in the Support role.

In your kit, Bouncing Bubble (bouncing slow) slows enemies. Mending Waters (bouncing shield, heal) and Riptide (push enemies, allies) add damage and pressure. Your ultimate is River's Rebuke (cage, then damage), on a long cooldown (about 120s at rank 1), so save it for fights that matter. Your passive is Omi: attacks heal allies.

Community guides level Bouncing Bubble / Moonstrike, Mending Waters and Riptide first. Max Bouncing Bubble / Moonstrike first, then Mending Waters, then Riptide.

Most of your damage comes from abilities, so fight from behind your front line and never be the closest god to the enemy. Look for the moment your crowd control can land, then follow up with the rest of your damage. You have no dash, so your positioning is your escape. As support, stay with your duo lane partner early and use your crowd control to set up kills.

Start with Bluestone Brooch, then buy Gauntlet of Thebes. Buy it early so it finishes stacking. Your core is Spear of Desolation and Chandra's Grace, and you finish with Stampede, Genji's Guard and Freya's Tears. A good relic is Blink Rune. If the enemy team heals a lot or you keep dying, open the full tool and enter the enemy gods for the exact swaps.

If you own Aspect of Downpour, it reworks Bouncing Bubble (bouncing slow), Moonstrike (multi-strike), Mending Waters (bouncing damage) and River's Rebuke (cage, then damage). It changes what to build, so turn on Aspect in the tool when you play it.

Top players win most often against Sol, Cu Chulainn and Nut, and struggle against Bellona, Ra or Gilgamesh. Against those, play safer and consider a defensive item earlier.
