Threat Hero Notes
1
  No Threat
2
Celeste Blackfeather is the strongest hero against Celeste. He can dodge her stun and easily chase and kill her.
2
Ringo Same as Celeste, Blackfeather is also very strong against Ringo. With an Atlas Pauldron he makes him pretty much useless and with no escape moves, it makes it almost impossible for Ringo to escape a good Blackfeather player.
3
Petal Petal is not a very strong hero espacially against bursty heroes. With Blackfeathers high mobility it is very easy for him to hunt her down and close the gaps which she always wants between her and her enemies.
4
SAW With the help of an Atlas Pauldron, Saw will not be any kind of problem for you or youre team.
5
Koshka Koshka is a very strong early game hero, but in Late she has no chance against a Blackfeather. Try to build much CP def and survive her burst.
5
Taka Although Taka csan escape well with his invisibility, Blackfeather is a stronger hero in general. Build a lot of defense to survive his burst. Also consider an Atlas pauldron if he is too anoying.
6
Adagio Adagio deals massive ammounts of damage, but cant slow or stun Blackfeather if he is used correctly.
6
Joule Blackfeather can jump arround and behind Joule to use her perk to his own advantage and kill her on her weakpoint.
6
Alpha Alpha can deal massive damage but with a more defensiv Blackfeather build (which i reccomend in most of the games) he can survive her burst and kill her even twice.
6
Rona Rona is a strong melee hero. Although Blackfeather is a little bit stronger in my opinion, it depends on thr players skills who will win. Just keep in mind that Blackfeather is one of the strongest Late game heroes, so in a long game you will win.
6
Skaarf Skaarf is a big threath against melee heroes, but Blackfeather immunity to slows and his massive gap closers help him to stay close to Skaarf.
6
Vox Vox is a very mobile hero, but Blackfeather should be able to stick at him an even kill him. An Atlas Pauldron is always a big help to make him useless.
7
Glaive Glaive is a strong melee hero, but if Blackfeather has an Atlas Pauldron early, Glaive is useless for a moment.
8
Krul Krul is always a pain for melee heroes, but with his ability to dodge stuns or slows and his high mobility, Blackfeather combined with a Fortress can beat even a very good Krul.
8
Skye Skye is a hard matchup in general. If xou build a shiversteel you should always be able to stick to her and also help youre team to reach her. Delete her as fast as possible!
9
Kestrel Kestrel is very dangerous for Blackfeather. With her ability to maker herself invisible whenever she wants (in WP build) It is hard to kill her fast and if Blackfeather reaches her, she can stun and burst you down.
9
Reim Reim is known as THE Blackfeather counter. His shield he gets is too immense for Any kind of melee hero. Try to avoid him if possible or get carried by youre laner!

Introduction Top



Welcome to another G2 hero guide! As you guys know Blackfeather is and has always been a hero with high mobility and enough power to easily burst down enemies. He often gets banned, because his late game power is just too strong. Built with weapon power, he is capable of following almost every ranged heroes without problems and even dodging stuns and other negative effects with his ultimate and that's what we want to show you today! Let' start with a short explanation of his abilities!

Abilities Top

Feint of Heart Top

Feint of Heart gives him the ability to close the gap and deal damage depending on applied heartthrobs and target's missing health. It also grants a rose trail which grants movement speed for you and your allies to chase down the target.

On Point Top

On Point is very important for your sustain, especially in the lane. Our goal is to poke enemies while keeping a safe distance and block damage with the gained barrier. This ability also provides a faster jungle clear and the ability to pull or last hit minions from a safe distance.

Rose Offensive Top

This ability has 2 charges with which you can close the gap, deal damage to all enemies along his path. The dash also grant fortified health and block negative effects such as slows, stuns and silences.
This ability combined well with On Point will give you a lot of sustain.

Gameplay & Strategy Top

Early game Top

For the lane: we start with a Book of Eulogies to sustain the early game damage of the enemy laners. You can also wait at the beginning and get an extra Halcyon Potion, don't worry you will be on lane in time and won't miss last hits. With On Point you can constantly poke the enemy laner and it will also help you secure the last hits without taking too much damage from ranged heroes! Make sure to upgrade On Point whenever you can and overdrive it to get higher range!

For the jungle: we start with a Weapon Blade for more damage and a faster jungle clear. With On Point you can deal splash damage, which helps you to clear the jungle fast. You can also poke enemies and check bushes from a safe distance, that's why we recommend to upgrade On Point first.



Blackfeather needs his items to unleash his power, that's why you should concentrate on your farm and focus on the late game. Get Travel Boots as fast as possible in order to jungle or rotate faster. Aim for a Serpent Mask early to get enough weapon power and lifesteal! This will give you quiet some damage and sustain in fights. We also recommend to go for tier 2 defense early, because even though you have the barrier of On Point you still will not be able to fight an aggressive early comp!

Mid Game Top

After you reached the point when you have Serpent Mask, attack speed item and stable defense you are ready to fight. If you feel comfortable, then force fights in lane or jungle!

Our core item build now would be:

- Serpent Mask
- Breaking Point
- Travel Boots
- Atlas Pauldron
- Aegis // Fountain of Renewal. (whichever is more needed)

Don't forget to pick up a weapon infusion to get more advantage!

First try to keep distance and poke the enemy with your On Point to lower them, try to find the right moment to engage and charge in. You can use Feint of Heart and Rose Offensive to close the gape and dodge negative effects. Try to hit as many enemies with your Rose Offensive as you can, in order to stack your Breaking Point. As we said: Aim for enemy carry is priority #1. Make sure to have everything up to chase him down and take him out. Without giving them a chance to recover, use your stacked Breaking Point and get the remaining enemies!

Using Feint of Heart on a target will leave a rose trail and gives your team massive movement speed. If you overdrive this ability: the rose trail also makes you and your allies unslowable. Furthermore, the cooldown for Feint of Heart is reset if the target is killed within 0.5 seconds. That's why this ability is so great to chase down targets! We definitely recommend to overdrive Feint of Heart, especially when your enemies have skills or items with can slow you. Don't forget that you can also block negative effects, especially stuns and silences with your Rose Offensive in an engage, but also in an escape!

Late game Top

Our late game build is quite situational and mainly focuses around counter-building the enemy team. Build and use Atlas Pauldron against heavy weapon power heroes with attack speed such like Ringo, Vox, Glaive and Krul. Go for Aegis if you face heavy crystal enemies and if you need a block for stun/silence, else go for Fountain of Renewal and time it with your support to get extra sustain!

As for the final item go for Alternating Current, so you have more attackspeed to stutter step and fill your energy bar so you can use your skills.

You should definitely watch out for enemies Atlas Pauldrons, because it can really decrease your damage output and give enemies the opportunity to deal with you. Try to avoid Atlas Pauldron or block it with Reflex Block or Rose Offensive. There will be nothing that could stop you, if you master to block all negative effects with your Rose Offensive!
