Threat Hero Notes
1
   No Threat
2
 Celeste Squishy and relatively easy to kill. Try to dodge the stun and try to Kaifeng over her ultimate.
3
   No Threat
4
 Ringo Easy to kill but also has high damage. His ultimate is a targeted ability so after you burst him make sure to Kaku before he can Ult you.
4
 Koshka Practically you but with a stun. In a 1v1 scenario you would most likely win with the WP build.
5
 Taka Ah, mirror matchups. The first one to make a mistake loses.
5
 Skaarf Very squishy and should be an easy kill but be careful of his Ult
6
 Vox Squishy and has a bad early game. Abuse this early by ganking with your roamer to starve him of gold so he doesn't reach his monster late game.
7
 Krul You can probably burst him down if ahead but don't stand there AA him or he will just heal. Ult -> AA -> Kaiten -> Kaku, wait then Ult -> finish off with AA's
7
 SAW A sitting duck. You can kill him really easily but wait for his spin up stacks to go away otherwise you're gonna be full of holes.
8
   No Threat
9
 Catherine Easy to kill early game but as the game goes on attacking her with her shield on his just suicide. Besides you're supposed to kill the carries.
10
 Kestrel Very high burst and can probably burst you faster because of her range. Try to dodge her glimmershots and you should be able to kill her

Introduction Top

Hello everyone, I'm My5t1cBl4d3. This is my first guide and would appreciate any feedback.
I am a Taka main and have been playing since before Season 1. I think I'm a reasonably good player even though I've only managed to reach Skill Tier 4 Gold ._. (And I'm still there)

Pros and Cons Top

Pros
+ High Damage
+ High Mobility
+ Has stealth due to Kaku
+ Can dodge damage and debuffs with Kaiten
+ Has good skins

Cons
- Vunreble to CC
- High skill cap
- Useless without abilities with the Crystal power build
- Hard to clear jungle when building Crystal

Abilities Top


This is your passive. Every 5 seconds, your basic attack is replaced with a Mortal Strike. Mortal Strikes grant a stack of Ki, does 40+25% of your weapon power as bonus damage and grants a burst of speed. Taka's gains a stack of Ki if he uses an ability and gains an extra stack for each point in his ultimate. Each Mortal Strike speeds up the timer by 0.9 seconds and can be refreshed with Critical strikes.


This ability not only allows you to do damage but will make you invulnerable to damage & debuffs. Does 100/165/230/295/360 +0.8 of your Crystal power.


This is your escape ability. When activated it allows you to become invisible for 4 seconds and heals you every second for 40/45/50/55/85 +0.25 of your crystal power.


Your main engagement tool. Deals 250/390/530 +1.7 of your Crystal power and applies a DOT that deals 40/52/64 every second +0.7 of your Crystal power.

Early Game Top

Your job is too farm. Yes farm. Do it with your support as the jungle creep to way more damage than they did before. Farm until about level 6-8. By then you should have your Tension Bow or Shatterglass

Mid to Late game Top

Now that you have some items it's time to look for some fights. Hide in the bush near your lane and when the later comes closer you want to X-Retsu followed by an autoattack followed by a Kaiten then finish them off with some more autos.

Thanks for reading! Top

Wow! You made it to the end! Thanks for checking out my Taka guide and I'll see you on the Halcyon Fold.
