3
Ardan [[Ardan]] is very similar to Cathy with extreme health and low damage, but his ultimate can do the worst thing to [[Taka]], trap you in an inescapable way. Except if your luck and have your crucible with you, you can time it right to escape.
3
Adagio [[Adagio]] is not a big damage dealer and is only dangerous when with his team mates I don't see how he's dangerous.
4
  No Threat
5
Petal Petal is hard to kill and make sure you aim the [[X-Retsu]] correctly and dont get a minion, apart from that dont get caught up with her minions.
5
Catherine [[Catherine]] is hard to kill with high health and stuns and silences. DONT get snagged in either. But easy to avoid.
6
SAW Dont let the spin up stacks build up, and only attack when your certain your capable of killing.
6
Krul [[Krul]] has stacks that are annoying, but even worse is the smite that comes after, dont spend too long in a fight. But he has low health.
7
Skaarf The burn is damaging, so dont stay in combat too long, an easy kill with [[X-Retsu]]
7
Ringo If used well will kill you very quickly, keep [[Kaku]] ready when fighting, otherwise with very low health.
8
Koshka Your fellow assassin is very capable of wrecking you with fast bursts of damage and if you get caught with the cat-nip-frenzy Ultimate, your dead.
9
  No Threat
10
Glaive [[Glaive]] is the ultimate [[Taka]] killing machine, he can use his 1st abilitiy or ultimate to uncover you from [[kaku]] and provides amazing bursts of damage.
10
Taka In this fight, its down to who has had the better game, never approach without all abilities ready.

About Taka Top

As you know Taka is a troubled young assassin who was trained by a caring man named Shishu then taken in and brainwashed by House Kamuha. He was then sent onto a mission to kill Shishu, only after Shishu's death did Taka remember that he was not Taka of House Kamuha, but Taka of Shishu. He then ran from house Kamuha and is half brainwashed crazy. He says thing like 'Crazy deja vu', which means he see's something that he doesn't remember but remembers it when he's seen it. Like Taka is recovering his lost memories. Like I said he is half crazy so he doesn't understand people are kind of freaked out by a half fox man with large knives. That's why he said, 'I thought we were besties!'. The one thing that really excites him though is hunting people, that is why he came to Halcyon fold.

Why the items? Top

Firstly I got Journey Boots because its needed in nearly every hero that can kill, the extra speed is good for Chasing and running, and escaping.

Secondly I bought Clockwork becaust it really does with his abilities, shortening his Kaiten cooldown to 7 secs and his X-Retsu to 10 secs. It really makes him very flexible.

Then Aftershock for extreme damage after a reduced cooldown, this also reduces the Kaiten cooldown to 3.5 seconds! And the X-Retsu cooldown to 5 secs, which with the boosted attack after each ability is outrageous amounts of damage.

Crucible is for the extra health and also for getting out of tricky situations, like escaping Ardans ultimate or Koshkas one.

Tension Bow provides huge amounts of damage and is really needed to make up for the fact Taka only has 2 out of 3 damaging abilities.

You can choose from Frostburn or Serpent Mask because the slowness from Frostburn is usefull for chasing (though he is already good at it) and the Serpent Maskto make the crit hits have 50% lifesteal!

Advaintages and disadvantages Top

Taka is very good at chasing with his crit hits causing speed and regenerating quickly, plus all three of his abilities could catch up to any enemy.
Taka has only two abilities that deal damage which could be a disadvantage except his Kaku is a great replacement.
Taka is a hero that really flows through the game weaving in and out of battles, he cant stop. Thats why I was always mentioning that his greatest danger is being caught by a stun or silences which will pull you out of your weaving and stop your flow through the game. Seriously, dont get stunned.
Lastly don't wait till last second to use Kaku chances are someone could land a hit or ability that would finish you.

Ending Top

I've got to thank you for reading this guide and the build has been tested and proved successful. Please test it or tweak it until it fits you. I might in future add a link to photos of the match details from this build.
Again thank you and good luck:)
