As Alistar

Using Pulverize can allow you to establish better positioning for Headbutt.

Move Speed is very important on Alistar. Consider which boots to buy carefully.

Using Flash can allow you catch your target off guard to knock them back into your allies with Pulverize and Headbutt.

Against Alistar

Alistar is very disruptive but very tough - try to target more fragile damage dealers.

Watch out for the Pulverize-Headbutt combo when around turrets.

When Alistar uses his ultimate, it's often better to move back and wait until the effect wears off before attacking him.

// Lore

Always a mighty warrior with a fearsome reputation, Alistar seeks revenge for the death of his clan at the hands of the Noxian empire. Though he was enslaved and forced into the life of a gladiator, his unbreakable will was what kept him from truly becoming a beast. Now, free of the chains of his former masters, he fights in the name of the downtrodden and the disadvantaged, his rage as much a weapon as his horns, hooves and fists.

Ability details

Innate: Alistar generates a stack of Triumph for each enemy champion he stuns or displaces with his abilities, and each time a nearby enemy minion or non-epic monster dies. He generates 7 stacks if a nearby enemy champion or epic monster dies.
At 7 stacks, Alistar consumes them all to heal himself for 5% of his maximum health and nearby allied champions for 7% of his maximum health.
Triumphant Roar can occur only once every few seconds, though Alistar may still generate stacks before then.

Targeting: Passive
Projectile: special

Notes

If Alistar is at 7 stacks when Triumphant Roar comes off cooldown, he will roar as soon as it elapses.
Alistar does not gain stacks for unsuccessfully trying to apply crowd control, for instance against a crowd control immune target.
Healing occurs simultaneously for Alistar and his allies.
There is a VFX projectile (700 missile speed) that cannot be destroyed by and is unrelated to the actual heal.
Alistar loses all Triumph stacks upon dying.
