When the ball is in motion it damages opponents so just using Q can be a way to hurt someone and it's presence can zone. BUT the ball always travels unless you get out of it's leash range so remember that if you need it instantly just break the leash range otherwise stay in range and have it run around to hit targets or just threaten them.

Ball can be used as ward if you so desired.

W and R is point blank so wherever the ball is the effect will go off just by pressing the skill button alone.

When casting E on other people you should keep in mind that as long as E is on your ally they get a buff of armor and magic resistance. As mentioned a casting of W and R will set off those spells without any other set up so all in champs with the ball on them is an opportunity for setting up a powerful and rather safe combo.

One of my favorite combos is Q,W,R,Alt+E It's very offensive so it's dangerous but it can let you deal a lot of ball based damage if you really try to leash yourself well to the ball.

It will take a lot of practice but you want to control a portion of every fight you are in with your ball. Shielding allies. Using them to deliver your damage. Taking care of yourself. Speeding yourself and allies up and then just going back and forth between casting on your allies and casting on the enemy.
