Yun Ying

• Casting a skill charges Spear Intent, and her basics consume it to unleash different empowered strikes.
• Her charge-up dash rewards patience, dealing more damage and traveling farther the longer she holds it.
• Her ultimate grants hyper armor and damage reduction while she repeatedly charges through an area, leaving a burning trail.

• Passive · Spear Intent · Blazeburn — Casting a skill charges a level of Spear Intent; her next basic attack consumes it all to unleash the matching empowered strike (Resolve, Sever, or Wildfire), and also cuts her 1 and 2's cooldown by 1.5 seconds. Empowered strikes can crit and benefit from 15% of her attack speed.
• 1 · Moon Break — Sweeps her spear up then down, launching enemies for 0.5 seconds on the upswing, each hit dealing physical damage.
• 2 · Cloud Chase — Charges up while gaining move speed, then dashes forward with a sweep for physical damage and a 1-second slow; longer charging increases the speed boost, dash distance, and damage.
• Ultimate · Starchase — Ignites her spear and charges back and forth across an area, each pass dealing physical damage and a launch, then strikes four times rapidly at max range for more physical damage; grants hyper armor and heavy damage reduction throughout. Recasting activates a second stage that sweeps forward and leaves a burning trail dealing magic damage over 3 seconds.

Build 1: Greedy Bite → Boots of Resistance → Shadow Battleaxe → Frostbound Grip → Champion's Warplate → Witch's Cloak

Tip: Bridge early with Boots of Calmness, switching to Boots of Resistance later; her empowered strikes all trigger on-hit effects, making them a perfect fit for Frostbound Grip, and Champion's Warplate paired with her passive's finishing empowered strike delivers terrifying execute damage.

Build 2: Boots of Resistance → Shadow Battleaxe → Frostbound Grip → Champion's Warplate → Witch's Cloak → Famed Blade · Siming

Tip: Same bridging plan applies here — her empowered strikes synergize perfectly with Frostbound Grip, and Champion's Warplate turns her passive's finisher into a devastating cleanup tool.

Tip: Yun Ying wants physical attack, penetration, and move speed to roam and jungle effectively — note her empowered strikes don't benefit from attack-speed bonuses.
