Threat Hero Notes
1
 Skaarf If you're using skaarf then you should already know how he is played. Just dodge his spitfires and use your spitfire and goop wisely so he'll run away.
2
 Adagio Adagio will be able to heal himself and slow you down, so just hide in a bush, ambush him with spitfire, and kite him until he's either dead or recalling to base.
3
   No Threat
4
 Joule Joule is not very hard in the early game but she can easily stop your kiting with her rocket jump so just wait for the right moment to attack her and take advantage of your heroic perk.
5
   No Threat
6
 Glaive Glaive is a little bit harder since he can soak up so much damage, but since he is slow and chubby, he will take more damage from burning so if he is low on health don't give up the chase.
6
 Catherine Same thing with Glaive, Catherine is slow and fat which means she'll take more damage from a maxed out fire if you keep kiting her, only difference is that you take some damage too from her storm guard.
6
 Krul Krul may be the master of 1v1, but if you play your cards right and ambush him he doesn't stand a chance. Just watch out for his ult and remember to spitfire check lots of bushes.
7
   No Threat
8
 Ringo Ringo can deal some heavy damage if you aren't careful around him. He will be able to escape your kite if you attack him head on so sneak up on him and be wary.
8
 Petal Petal is especially hard to deal with for skaarf because her "munions" will block your spitfire if you aren't careful. So sneak up on her and watch out for a frost burn on her.
9
   No Threat
10
 SAW SAW is very dangerous seeing as he can kill many people in seconds. You need to able to dodge his suppressing fire and once you've done that hit him with a spitfire, kite him, and watch him run.
10
 Taka This matchup is just unfair. Taka will cut you up into dragon steak if you aren't careful. Avoid the jungle as long as possible. Do not engage taka alone, only in team fights. Remember to always spitfire check bushes.
10
 Koshka Same think with Taka, Koshka will jump out and kill you in a matter of seconds. Only engage Koshka when she is low on health and kite her if you can.

How it's used Top

This Skaarf is built around a lot of crystal power, which means you won't be needing WP as much, unless that's your thing. I took frostburn over eve of harvest because once you hit them with your first ability they will be slowed making it easier for you to kite them. The aftershock goes well with this build because you have a lot of crystal power so once you spitfire somebody that first basic attack will do a lot of damage and will heal you too. Journey boots are there to just speed you up so you can chase down enemies. Skaarf needs the iron guard contract in the beginning only if you are dual laning, if not I would start with an energy battery. Skaarf is brutal in the early game if you use him correctly. I have almost always killed an enemy within 1 minute of playing because the enemy got too close to the fire and got burned. Almost every match I've used this set in, I've gotten over 15 kills with him. This is my first guide so comment if you like this and if not then say what might need to be changed. If you want to play some vain with me my username is: usernameisgoku (I had somebody else make the name for me)
