Lian Po

Tank

A rock-solid tank who anchors fights with a stacking shield and a game-ending knockup.

Strengths

  • Passive shield scales with max HP, letting him soak damage no other tank can match.
  • Iron Wall (ultimate) is a long, wide knockup that turns a teamfight in one cast.
  • High base durability lets him initiate without dying instantly.

Abilities

  • Passive · Warrior's Soul — Lian Po gets hyper armor while casting skills. Sustained combat builds Valor, reducing damage taken by up to 20%; at full Valor he also gains 30% attack speed.
  • 1 · Bursting Charge — Charges in a direction, dealing physical damage and knocking enemies up briefly. His next third basic attack becomes an empowered punch for bonus physical damage.
  • 2 · Molten Slam — Channels a shield into the ground, then erupts a second later for physical damage around him, slowing enemies and refreshing Bursting Charge's cooldown.
  • Ultimate · Earth-Shattering Blow — Leaps to an area and hammers the ground three times, dealing rising physical damage and slow, with the final hit launching enemies into the air.

Recommended Build

Build 1: Glacial Storm → Shadowstalker Boots → Crimson Lotus Cloak → Ominous Omen → Witch's Cloak → Warlord's Plate

Tip: Prioritizes survivability so he can control fights and buy his carries room to operate.

Build 2: Crimson Lotus Cloak → Shadowstalker Boots → Witch's Cloak → Shadow Battleaxe → Warlord's Plate → Ferocious Armor

Tip: Times his mobility skills to dive onto backline targets and follow up with his AoE for more damage.

Recommended Inscriptions

Inscriptions: Mutation, Hawkeye, Concealment

Tip: As a support, run the tank set (Fate, Void, Harmony); in the Clash Lane, switch to the anti-squishy set (Mutation, Hawkeye, Concealment). Lian Po wants to engage first with his 1 and 3, threatening the enemy backline.
