Torment: Apply crowd control effects before dealing damage. Coordinate with teammate CC: their controls also trigger extra damage. Apply multiple CC effects to enemies: increase extra damage. Initiate team fights with CC skills: let teammates benefit from extra damage. Build CC items like Ice Gauntlet, Frostfire Gauntlet to enhance control.

Tormentor + Courage of the Colossus + Slap Around: Tormentor triggers on immobilizes and grounds, and Courage of the Colossus provides a substantial shield on the same trigger for survivability. Slap Around grants infinite stacking adaptive power each time you immobilize an enemy, creating a powerful scaling loop. Together, these three augments reward crowd control champions with damage, defense, and permanent stat growth. Tormentor + Guilty Pleasure + Adamant: Tormentor's burn and Guilty Pleasure's heal both activate when you immobilize or ground enemies, providing sustain alongside damage. Adamant stacks bonus resistances on the same trigger, making you increasingly tanky in extended fights. This combination excels on crowd control-heavy champions who can repeatedly trigger all three effects while staying durable. Tormentor + Soul Eater + Recursion: Tormentor and Soul Eater both trigger on immobilizing or grounding enemies, adding infinite stacking health to the burn damage. Recursion provides 60 ability haste to cast crowd control abilities more frequently, maximizing trigger opportunities. This combination scales infinitely while maintaining high uptime on your disabling effects. Tormentor + Cruelty + Bread And Butter: Tormentor and Cruelty both activate on immobilizes, adding a damaging comet to the burn effect. Bread And Butter grants 100 ability haste to your Q ability, enabling more frequent crowd control casts. Champions with immobilizing Q abilities can trigger both damage effects repeatedly while maintaining strong crowd control uptime.

Avoid Tormentor + Back to Basics: Avoid this pairing because Back to Basics permanently seals your ultimate ability, which severely limits your champion's capacity to immobilize or ground enemies if their ultimate contains crowd control. Tormentor requires immobilizing or grounding to trigger its burn effect, so losing access to a major CC tool directly reduces the frequency and reliability of Tormentor's damage application. Avoid Tormentor + Slow and Steady: Avoid this pairing because Slow and Steady sets your base attack speed to a static value and prevents all attack speed bonuses from providing any benefit. Tormentor triggers on immobilizing or grounding, which many champions achieve through abilities that scale better with attack speed for weaving autos between casts, creating a fundamental stat mismatch. Avoid Tormentor + Firebrand: Avoid this pairing because Firebrand applies burn on basic attacks while Tormentor applies burn on immobilizing or grounding enemies. Both burns deal percent maximum health damage and stack infinitely, but they trigger from completely different conditions. Champions built for crowd control to enable Tormentor typically do not optimize for sustained basic attacking, making Firebrand's trigger condition difficult to consistently utilize alongside Tormentor's crowd control requirement. Avoid Tormentor + Scopier Weapons: Avoid this pairing because Scopier Weapons grants massive bonus attack range, which typically benefits poke and siege playstyles that stay at long distance. Tormentor requires you to immobilize or ground enemies, which often means being in closer proximity to apply crowd control effects. The range advantage can actually make it harder to consistently land the CC needed to trigger Tormentor's burn.

Torment: Don't pick for heroes without CC: completely unable to trigger effects Don't ignore teammate CC: their controls also trigger extra damage Don't only damage without CC: apply control first for higher value Don't waste CC abilities: save for enemy carries Note CC duration: extra damage disappears when control ends
