Sinergias

Cuidado contra

Jawhead

Ling is countered by heroes with strong single-target CC and high burst damage, as they can easily control Ling and burst him down. Such as Eudora and Jawhead.

ABILITIES

Cloud Walker

Ling's superb Lightness Skill allows him to leap among walls. He gains 4 extra Lightness Points per second when he's on a wall and 5 extra Lightness Points each time he deals damage. Ling gains 1.6 times Crit Chance from all sources but only has 140% Crit Damage.

Finch Poise

Passive : Ling's Crit Chance is increased by 2.5%. Active : Ling leaps onto the designated wall and enters the Half-Stealth state, restoring Lightness Points faster and gaining 30% Movement Speed. Taking damage causes him to leave Half-Stealth . Being controlled makes him fall to the ground and slows him by 30% for 2s. When he uses this skill to jump from one wall to another, it does not trigger cooldown and refreshes Half-Stealth .

Defiant Sword

CD: 2.5 Energy Cost: 35

Ling charges in the target direction and stabs nearby enemies, dealing them 300 (+50% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage . If Ling casts this skill when he's on the wall (no energy cost), he'll dash to the target location on the ground, dealing 300 (+50% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies in the area and slowing them by 30% for 1.5s. Defiant Sword is regarded as Basic Attack.

Tempest of Blades

CD: 52

Ling leaps into the air, becoming invincible and gaining 10% extra Movement Speed for 1.5s. He ignores obstacles when in the air. He then lands on the ground, dealing 250 (+100% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies in the area and slowing them by 40% for 1.5s, knocking those in the center airborne for 1s, and creating a Sword Field for 8s. Four Tempest of Blades will also appear on the edge of the Sword Field. Ling can touch them to reduce the cooldown of Finch Poise by 4s, reset the cooldown of Defiant Sword , and gain 25 Lightness Points.

LANE TIPS

General lane advice, not professional player guides. Source item and ability descriptions may be in English.

1
In the jungle, track Turtle and Lord timers and save Retribution to contest objectives.
2
Adapt the remaining build slots to enemy damage and healing; do not buy the same items every match.
3
Before engaging, check which enemies are visible on the minimap and wait for key crowd-control abilities to be used.
