- For general information, see Minion
Super minions are powerful minions with melee range. They only spawn on lanes where enemy inhibitors are destroyed, and stop spawning when the inhibitor respawns. While super minions are spawning, no will spawn in that lane.
On Summoner's Rift, when all inhibitors are destroyed, a second super minion will spawn in each lane.
Notes
- They spawn at the front of minion waves.
- Super minions will stop spawning two waves before the enemy inhibitor is going to respawn to prevent the inhibitor from instantly being destroyed again because of super minions.
- They're seen through the fog of war.

Strategy
