Lore

Iceborn warmother of the Avarosan tribe, Ashe commands the most populous horde in the north. Stoic, intelligent, and idealistic, yet uncomfortable with her role as leader, she taps into the ancestral magics of her lineage to wield a bow of True Ice. With her people's belief that she is the mythological hero Avarosa reincarnated, Ashe hopes to unify the Freljord once more by retaking their ancient, tribal lands.

Playing as Ashe

Try to fire Enchanted Crystal Arrow in the same direction enemies are moving, so it is more likely to hit.
Volley arrows are blocked by the first enemy they hit, so keep your distance to avoid having them all absorbed by enemy frontliners.
Hawkshot reveals units in brush. If a team fight is occuring in the jungle it can give you a significant advantage.

Playing against Ashe

Ashe has very few defensive options, and she's a good target to gank.
Be wary of moving around the map alone if Ashe has not recently cast her Enchanted Crystal Arrow.
