Donghuang Taiyi
SupportA pull-and-shield tank whose ultimate collapses the enemy team into one spot.
Strengths
- Ultimate is a long-range, multi-target pull that sets up guaranteed team fights.
- Shield ability protects a diving ally through incoming burst.
- Strong pick and peel utility even without landing the ultimate.
Abilities
- Passive · Shadow Bite — His orbiting dark energy damages any enemy it touches, and he heals when it hits an enemy hero.
- 1 · Eclipse Ritual — Deals magic damage in an area and spawns an orbiting dark energy sphere, up to three at once; at three stacks it heals him instead of creating a new one.
- 2 · Dragon's Beacon — Summons one dragon surge per dark energy sphere he holds, each dealing magic damage and slowing in a line, with the third hit stunning.
- Ultimate · Fallen God's Covenant — Suppresses a target for 2 seconds, mirroring all damage he takes onto them, while gaining three dark energy spheres and bonus rotation speed.
Recommended Build
Build 1: Guardian Emblem → Fleetfoot Boots → Crimson Lotus Cloak → Phoenix's Eye → Warlord's Plate → Ominous Omen
Tip: Keep a healthy max-HP lead so his ultimate stays safe to cast.
Build 2: Guardian Emblem → Fleetfoot Boots → Crimson Lotus Cloak → Witch's Cloak → Glacial Storm → Warlord's Plate
Tip: Fleetfoot Boots creates ultimate windows without needing Flash, while Glacial Storm covers his skill downtime.
Recommended Inscriptions
Inscriptions: Fate, Void, Harmony
Tip: Built for roaming and all-in ultimates — this set adds early move speed, HP, and sustain for ganking, and still scales into a core threat later.
