Hanabi, the Scarlet Flower, is a marksman who plays in the Gold Lane.
Also known as The Scarlet Flower
Lore
Leader of the Scarlet Sect, in the Scarlet Shadow of the Cadia Riverlands. As the owner of Higanbana, one of the seven great armaments of the Scarlet Shadow clan, Hanabi is the pride of the Scarlet Sect. To carry on her father's will, she has sought power since childhood. As a result of her single-minded goal, she closed herself off to all feelings and emotions. Even so, she was never truly accepted by Higanbana. Once, when she was pursuing an enemy spy and losing ground, she accidentally stepped into the world inside Higanbana and lingered between illusion and reality. Eventually, she came to understand that power without emotion was volatile and fleeting. She came to terms with herself and embraced her feelings and desires as she became one with Higanbana.

Skills
Ninjutsu: Petal BarrageHanabi's Basic Attacks and skills launch Petal Blades upon hitting a target, dealing 30% damage and bouncing up to 4 times to nearby enemies. Petal Blades launched by Basic Attacks inherit Attack Effects. If bounces from the same Basic Attack or skill hit the same target multiple times, subsequent bounces deal 30% less damage.
Ninjutsu: EquinoxPassive: Whenever Hanabi has a shield from any source, she is immune to control effects. Active: Hanabi gains a 300 (+40% Total Physical Attack) shield for 5s. When the shield is active, she gains 20% Movement Speed and 25% Attack Speed, and 20% of her damage dealt to enemy heroes is added to this shield (only 10% of the damage dealt to non-hero units is added). This shield cannot exceed 50% of her .
Ninjutsu: Soul ScrollHanabi fires the energy Kunai in the targeted direction, dealing 350 (+80% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies along the way and reducing their Movement Speed by 60% for 1s. Enemy units hit will also be marked, allowing Hanabi's next Bounce Damage from Basic Attacks to deal 30 (+100% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage on them with no damage decay.
Forbidden Jutsu: HiganbanaHanabi throws Higanbana in the targeted direction, dealing 300 (+50% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to the first enemy hero hit and immobilizing them for 0.8s. After 1s, Higanbana will bloom at the location of the first hit, dealing 300 (+50% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to nearby enemies. Subsequent hits on the same target decay to 30% damage.
Counter / cooperate relationship
Hanabi counters heroes that rely heavily on CC abilities, such as Tigreal and Belerick, since Hanabi can use her 1st Skill to ignore CC.
Hanabi is weak against heroes with high burst damage, such as Lancelot and Zilong, because they can quickly take down her shield.
Best teammates
Official combos
In teamfights, start with Hanabi's 2nd Skill to slow the enemies, then follow up with her Ultimate to immobilize them and let loose with Basic Attacks. During this time, use her 1st Skill accordingly for more damage and survivability, and keep up the damage with her bouncing Basic Attacks.
In the laning phase, use Hanabi's 2nd Skill to poke the enemy and mark them, and continue to chip away their HP with Basic Attack bounces before using her 1st Skill and engaging them head-on.
