Guide

Playstyle

  1. This unit ignores block, it needs front lane, you are too low HP to do anything alone
  2. X-move in, Press 2 so your unit “grabs” the enemy
  3. Press 1 after; the 2 reset CC and gives you 30% dmg reduction
  4. This unit is a boosted Wuwei that trades way better into block but lacks range (and so technically “wipes” slower but “harder”)
