If your enemies group, in, throw a  on the biggest target (you want this to land more than you want it to help you deal more damage to a squishy), and take a. This should grant you around 4 to 6 Tentacles instantly, which are all ready to attack the instant you followup that near-instant combo with a. You'll be able to deal over a thousand base damage plus up to a whopping bonus damage to anyone who doesn't get out of the way in time (and you aren't giving them much of a window to react).

This combo isn't actually Flash-reliant. It works great when Baron-baiting if you hide in one of the bushes, 'cause the entire enemy team will usually all be grouped and walking straight towards you. Works great if you have an ally with an AoE CC ( is especially awesome, but there are many other options). If not, you can still do this on your own and you'll almost definitely be able to force a few Flashes, ultimates,, etc. not to mention probably get at least one or two kills.

Generally, though, is supposed to wait for stuff to happen. In the right conditions, she can get up to 10 Tentacles at once all in one area (the legendary Ten-tacle), but to do so she has to rely on her enemies walking into an area where she's already got 3 set up (though, realistically, you'll only be able to get a maximum of 8 total - still better than 6). If you can't bait them or Flash into them, you're gonna have to wait for A) an ally with strong CC to engage long enough for you to walk into the middle of the enemy team or B) the enemy team to initiate full-force onto you. In any case, is always highly important, because you're gonna end up in the middle of the enemy team and they'll be doing everything in their power to burst you down ASAP before you can get the massive {[as|30-50% missing health}} heal.
