Celeste
is a mighty glass cannon. She is capable of zoning and dealing huge burst of crystal damage. With her basic Attacks dealing crystal damage, building weapon power is futile with her base weapon stat as 10 (Max). Also, along with that FROSTBRUN will proc will her basic Attack making her a celestial nightmare. However, she is fragile and can be busted and killed easily. So stay on the edge of battles to maximise the vicious 'Cannon' part of her.
Celeste is a incredible fragile burst Mage. She is capable of dishing out damage she cannot take in return and therefor she is best played on the edge of fights, walking in last. Her items should enhance her super powerful abilities and synergise with the amazing kit she has.
Frostburn- This item is the core of the build. With her basic Attacks dealing added crystal damage, each time you attack, the enemy will be slowed. With this she is effectively able to harass and kite enemies to death.
Clockwork- Clockwork is an incredible item on Celeste with her already short cool down Heliogenesis. She is able to cast it every second or even less with it. Her amazing stun and ultimate abilities also come off the timer much earlier allowing you to pull off close battles and maximum damage. With clockwork and maxed Heliogenesis, she is the most vicious harasser with her long ability range.
Broken Myth- Broken Myth has been altered various times in the game. But the introduction of the shield piercing stacks gained from attacking any target makes broken myth the most OP item in the game at the moment (To let you in on a secret, this item will likely be nerfed, so take advantage!). With maximum of 35% shield pierce for attacking anything and being in combat for 5 seconds, Celeste is capable of utilising this item most effectively. First of all, combined with her overdrive long range from Heliogensis and cool down from clockwork, she is able to 'poke' and keep her stacks alive making her deadly almost all the time. The reason why I think this will be nerfed is because much like
Breaking Point it was taken advantage of ranged characters who can poke and stay relatively save and still gain/maintain stacks. So better take advantage of Broken Myth while it's still here!
Shatterglass- This makes her a mighty powerhouse. It also adds to the damage and slow (from Frostburn)) of both her basic Attacks and abilities. Her damage can soar up to 300+ and 500+ with her A and B, plus being able to one shot enemies with her terrifying ultimate.
Eve of Harvest- This item can replace one in any build to add sustainability if you she her health constantly go down too quickly and often. Both her abilities and basic attacks will heal her along with the AOE which will grant you small but many ticks of health back.
Focus on clearing minions in the lane and harass/zone with
Heliogenesis. Make sure you are safe and do not overextend- dont pass the mid point (Circle in the middle of lane). Always stand at the top of lane to avoid getting ganked from the moustache bush XD. Rush
Void Battery and
Frostburn while always carrying potions/traps.
Heliogenesis should be your main skill used and can be spammed keeping your B as protection from ganks and early team fights. Secure the gold mine although your team does not have to take the minion mine as soon as it spawns as Celeste is really effective at clearing the lane and offers a larger amount of gold the later your teammates take it.
Focus on exploding stars and dealing as much damage to turrets while the enemy laner is gone. Be cautious and roam to assist allies in team fights that may occur. You should have many tier 2 items ready to be finished as you gain enough gold. Stick with team and be cautious if enemies are missing from the map. If you end up running into a 1v2 you're dead unless you can core collapse+boot or your team comes to help immediately.
Stick with allies. No where is safe for your you. Always enter battle last and stay back to drop helio genesis. With your A, you can provide vision for the target area. Meaning that you can face heck bushes with your helio genesis for your teammates. Always have teammates close and fall back after your have dropped the star expecting enemies in the bush.
