Cheng Yaojin

• His passive converts missing HP into extra physical attack, rewarding aggressive, risky play.
• Every skill cast heals back a percentage of missing HP, giving him strong self-sustain in extended fights.
• His ultimate grants a burst of HP regen and move speed, letting him engage or chase relentlessly.

• Passive · Reckless Abandon — For every 1% max HP he's missing, he gains bonus physical attack. Casting a basic skill costs 10% of his current max HP (his ultimate costs 16%), but each cast also heals back 8% of his missing HP over 3 seconds.
• 1 · Twin Axes — Leaps to a location and swings his twin axes for physical damage and a 50% slow in the area; landing a basic attack on a hero cuts this skill's cooldown by 1 second.
• 2 · Whirling Blaze — Spins his axes for two hits of physical damage to nearby enemies.
• Ultimate · Righteous Fury — Bursts with righteous passion, regenerating 8% max HP per second and gaining 30% move speed for several seconds.

Build 1: Boots of Resistance → Crimson Lotus Cloak → Phoenix's Eye → Glacial Storm → Thorned Armor → Shadow Battleaxe

Tip: Cheng Yaojin needs to track his own HP carefully — stacking max HP gives him much more room for error, and his passive's attack scaling still lets him threaten real damage.

Build 2: Boots of Resistance → Glacial Storm → Phoenix's Eye → Shadow Battleaxe → Lightning Dagger → Famed Blade · Siming

Tip: Glacial Storm's cooldown reduction shortens his downtime between skills, and its slow-on-hit effect procs often in his low-HP brawling style.

Inscriptions: Mutation, Balance, Concealment

Tip: As a bruiser-tank hybrid, Cheng Yaojin needs high HP and dual resistance to soak damage for his team in fights — Mutation adds attack and penetration, Concealment adds attack and move speed for sticking to targets, and Balance adds dual resistance to take more hits.
