Threat Hero Notes
1
  No Threat
2
Ringo Does outdamage you but will not be able to escape when your team collapses on him
3
  No Threat
4
Baron His early game is very easy to capitalize on. Bully him early game and he will have a lot of difficulty reaching his late game potential.
4
Gwen She can't out damage you when you have your Wrath buff on. Plus she can't sustain as well as you can.
4
Samuel Not very scary, you do a lot more damage than he does
4
SAW Dodge the Suppresssing Fires and fight him when he doesn't have stacks. Prioritize him in fights.
4
Skaarf Dead dragon when caught.
5
Blackfeather Not a big deal, his On Point can't tank your damage. Focus the other carry and beware his Atlases
6
Glaive Not very meta but if he catches you he's able to do a lot of damage. Let your frontlines cover for you and he won't be able to get away from your damage.
6
Krul Potentially dangerous, his stacks can leave your Wrath buff useless if he doesn't detonate them (unlikely). Other than that, he can't catch you that often in fights.
6
Vox Against CP Vox, don't let your roam stay in front of you or you'll take a lot of unnecessary damage. One of the heroes in which it is acceptable to frontline for- careful of his jungler.
7
Skye Her mobility doesn't really affect you, as your range allows you to hit her with all your attacks. Reflex the Death From Above and keep moving.
8
Alpha Able to stick to you very easily but can't avoid your ult. Things will get ugly if your team isn't there to peel for you.
8
Kestrel The Glimmershots still hurt despite the fix. She won't be trapping you with her Camos but you need somebody between you and her to live through fights.
8
Taka His burst hurts but also opens himself up to a lot of damage. Try to synchronize with your team when playing against a Taka.
9
Celeste Dangerous late game. Adagio is not especially mobile and will eat a lot of stars to the face. When you have your journeys, you can sprint up to her and heal. If you can't then you can just stutter step while sprinting. (If she's the last one on their team)
10
Flicker He isn't a carry, but his kit makes it very easy to gank Adagio. Have your roam caryr lots of vision to counter him.

Things to Remember Top

Nothing you haven't heard before.
Keep your farm up and stay behind the median line in the lane.
Heal your frontlines to proc the Arcane Fire damage boost for your Agent of Wrath.
Use your ultimate ideally when they have fire on them, they're grouped, and you have Broken Myth stacks.
If you need to use it right away, make sure they at least have the fire on them.
Stutter step.

If their team has MELEE CARRIES, max out your ultimate.
If their team is more of a BACKLINE/RANGED COMPOSITION, overdrive your Gift of Fire over the max of your Verse.

Best Junglers to Pair With Top

Ideally paired with reliable and consistent gap closing heroes to activate the Arcane Fire damage buff. The jungler should also act as a frontline, as Adagio is able to do most of the team's damage while keeping his protectors alive.
Alpha
Krul
Lance
Ozo This hero works particularly well with Adagio because he will heal for insane amounts when given the Gift. In addition, his gap-closing kit offers near-immortality in the Fold and a constant energy supply for Adagio.

Squisher gap closers can work but if they die things get ugly and the enemy team is able to jump on you.
Taka Once Taka hits level six, have him come up to lane and gank the laner. As he X-Retsus, give him both your A and your B to ensure he secures the kill and gets out alive.
Kestrel

Best Roam Heroes to Pair With Top

Flicker is one of the best roams to pair with Adagio right now. The Fairy Dust and Mooncloak combo make it easy to catch opponents in lane and quickly secure a kill. In addition, his Mooncloak sets up instant Verses of Judgement to burn Reflex Blocks and deal a huge blow to their health bars and their confidence.
Ardan offers Adagio, safety, and great ult positionings.
Phinn helps Adagio tank damage when he's pulled opponents in. He also keeps them off of Adagio with frequent stuns. If the enemy team reflexes his pull and they stay back though, he isn't very helpful for activating the fire.
Lance Helps peel and helps Adagio proc his fire.

Last Tips Top

You can secure Kraken with a Verse of Judgement
Try to heal only when you can get your energy back (when the fire hits enemy targets)
Try to be infused at level 12 and ensure your team has vision to force a fight in your favor and that you don't waste 500 gold.

Your game revolves around the smart use of your fire. Make sure you use it wisely.

And last of all..

DON'T FRONTLINE FOR YOU TEAM!! IT'S HOW YOU LOSE MATCHES! STAY BACK!!

High-Skill Tips Top

This is when you're skilled with Adagio and you have the ability to control him very efficiently.

-If your jungler sucks
-If your jungler is not carrying into the late game
-If you need the gold (you always do)
-If the lane is pushed to their side

then take the jungler's farm.

If you're snowballing then make sure to take the enemy jungle's farm and take the Gold Mine frequently to maintain the lead.
