His W ability, Twisted Advance, allows him to dash towards an enemy, rooting them in place and preventing them from escaping or engaging. This ability can be used to catch out priority targets or to protect his team's carries from assassins.
His E ability, Sapling Toss, allows Maokai to throw saplings that explode upon contact with enemies, dealing damage and slowing them. These saplings can be strategically placed in bushes or chokepoints to provide vision and zone control.

This ability can be used to initiate team fights or to disengage from unfavorable engagements.

Lore:
Maokai is a rageful, towering treant who fights the unnatural horrors of the Shadow Isles. He was twisted into a force of vengeance after a magical cataclysm destroyed his home, surviving undeath only through the Waters of Life infused within his heartwood. Once a peaceful nature spirit, Maokai now furiously battles to banish the scourge of unlife from the Shadow Isles and restore his home to its former beauty.
Ally tips:
Saplings can be tossed into brush for empowered effect - but don't stack well. Try looking for flanks or other situations where Nature's Grasp is unavoidable or takes enemies by surprise. Maokai's passive makes him extremely durable against focus fire from spells - so long as he can still basic attack something.
Enemy tips:
Saplings will chase the first enemy that gets too close, but detonate after a few seconds or if they collide with other enemies. Be especially careful around brush sapling, as they are much more dangerous.The cooldown on Maokai's self healing is heavily gated on how many time you hit him with spells. Careful about wasting abilities on him.Maokai will avoid taking damage while he's using Twisted Advance, so don't waste your spells.
