Skills
Dagger SpecialistEach skill cast adds a rune to Gusion's dagger (stacks up to 4 times). Each stack enhances Gusion's next Basic Attack to deal additional damage equal to 3% of the target's and recover 50 (+25% Total Magic Power) HP for himself.
Sword SpikeGusion throws a dagger in the target direction, dealing 200 (+50% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage to the first enemy hit and marking them. Use Again: Gusion moves behind the marked enemy, dealing 200 (+100% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage to them. This skill cannot be interrupted while Gusion is moving behind the marked enemy.
Shadowblade SlaughterGusion throws a volley of daggers in the target direction, each dealing 100 (+40% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage to enemies hit and slowing them by 6% for 2s (when hit by multiple daggers, the slow effect can stack up to 30%). Use Again: Gusion recalls the daggers, each dealing 65 (+40% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage to enemies in its path.
IncandescenceGusion dashes to the target location, resetting the cooldowns of Sword Spike and Shadowblade Slaughter. If Shadowblade Slaughter was cast once before the reset, Gusion can throw another five daggers on his next Shadowblade Slaughter cast, and recall a total of ten daggers afterward. Use Again: Gusion dashes a short distance in the target direction.
Counter / cooperate relationship
Gusion is strong against squishy heroes who lack movement abilities, so that Gusion can easily chase them down. Like Layla and Hanabi.
Gusion is countered by tank heroes with good single-target CC. Once controlled by them, Gusion will have a hard time escaping. Such as Franco and Kaja.
Best teammates
Official combos
In teamfights, Gusion should first use his 2nd Skill for damage, then his Ultimate to reset the cooldown for his 2nd Skill. Follow up with his 2nd and 1st Skill combo for more damage. And use his 2nd Skill again to recall all 10 daggers right after moving behind a target with his 1st Skill for massive damage. He can then finish off any remaining low-HP heroes and escape with his Ultimate.
In the laning phase, Gusion can use his 1st Skill to mark the enemies, then use his 2nd Skill to slow them down. Next, he can use his 1st Skill again to move behind a target enemy and use his 2nd Skill again to deal massive damage. And finally, use his Basic Attacks to finish off the target.
