Taka The typical taka v taka is always hard c:
6
SAW Strong against anyone really without a stun. Avoid battling him if he has his 12 stacks unless your teammates are ready to gank him.
6
Celeste Part of the "annoying group" will add info later.
6
Skaarf Another fine member of the "annoying group"
6
Skye You probably read my mind or something... I was gonna say she was in the "annoying group"
6
Samuel Avoid leaving yourself vulnerable. By this i mean using all your skills letting Samuel to be able to use his A to dominate you since you have no escape.
7
  No Threat
8
Glaive Fairly challenging to win against but with good timing, you can easily kite him out.
8
Kestrel Played against Krestel during ranked and i have to tell you..... it HURTS. A smart krestal can easily catch you and hit you.
9
  No Threat
10
Krul Attempting to solo him is nearly impossible but there are some ways to defeat him.

Taka

Build: Weapon Power (W.I.P)

Item Choices

Hi Top

ALSO TANKS FOR READING DIS GUIDE. MUCH AWESOME :D.

Introduction Top

Hello fellow vainglory gamers! I will explain my choices in this Taka guide here! First of all, I want to thank you for reading and paying attention to my guide. That really helps!

Taka as you may already know, is an assassin. He is the master of the shadows thanks to Kaku. This skill allows him to be invisible and he has an AMAZING gap closing skill!. Yes, that is his ultimate X-Retsu. His Kaiten is just as powerful, allowing him to dodge attacks (he is immume from attacks) while Taka is midair


Now, you guys must be wondering what in the world i was THINKING?! You are probably wondering.... A HYBRID BUILD?! Yes... It may seem odd, but it definitely works in my opinion. In fact, he can easily assassinate anyone (except tanks) in about <5 seconds

Just saying...this should be a quote Taka says: "Give me 5 seconds and I will give you....DEATH."

This is just a picture of a game i had on 12/5/15. Of course, you can say its a bot game while i say it's a ranked game but really, we can all believe what we want to.

FULL Explaination of Taka's skills Top

First off is House Kamuha. This perk is a great perk. It used to be slightly different. The old version, a crit strike would trigger House Kamuha. Now, this is not the case. Instead, you get every 5 seconds, Taka's next basic attack is replaced with a Mortal Strike. Mortal Strikes deal 40 (+25% weapon ratio) bonus damage and grant Taka a burst of move speed. Whenever Taka Mortal Strikes or uses an ability, he gains a stack of Ki, which speeds up his Mortal Strike timer by 0.9 secs and grants 25% cooldown speed. (5 Ki stacks max.)----> From Vainglory Wiki. Basically, using a mortal strike will both reduce the next Mortal Strike by .9 sec and also a 25% cooldown speed.

Next is Taka's first ability A: Kaiten. Listen to what the wiki says: "Taka flips over his target, cutting it with his switchblade. Taka is invulnerable to damage & damage while in mid-air." Energy used: 55/55/55/55/0 Crystal power: 100/165/230/295/360 (+0.8 Crystal). This can be cast on ANY target Including TURRETS/NEXUS.

The next ability on Taka is (B) is probably what makes him AWESOME!!!!: Kaku. On the wiki it reads "Taka throws a smoke bomb at his feet, vanishing from enemy sight and gaining move speed. This illusion ends early if he strikes a target or he takes direct damage. Turrets, Scout Traps and Flare Guns will see Taka while invisible. This ability heals Taka while he is invisible." Now. This is important to remember. Kaku WILL NOT TRIGGER INVISTIBLE IF he strikes a target or he takes direct damage. AND! Turrets, Scout Traps and Flare Guns also reveals Taka. Probably the worst nightmare for him is the turret and the scout traps. (This is how Taka isn't overpowered)

Last but not least is my favorite of Taka :D. It is his X-Retsu. Unfortunately, the wiki didn't update so im gonna have to type this most of this up D:. Taka bursts through his target, carving an X with his switchblades for crystal damage. The target suffers a mortal wound, reducing its healing by 50% and taking damage per second over the next 3 seconds. Grants 3 stacks of Ki. Energy cost: 85/115/145 Crystal damage: 250/390/530 (+1.7 Crystal)Damage/sec: 40/52/64 (+0.7 Crystal) Note that the bleed damage scales of Crystal Power. This is going to explain my reasoning around my build. Basically, X-Retsu is an amazing gap closer for Taka. It has a great range, good crystal damage, and also decent bleed damage. Note that the bleed reduces healing by 50%!

Ability Maxing Explained Top

First Ability Maxed
I max Kaiten first. Why? Simple. Crystal power increases and probably my favorite, NO ENERGY COST WHAT-SO-EVER UPON MAX!. Obviously, no energy cost is essential due to the fact x-restu costs an absurd amount to use.

Second Ability Maxed
I max X-Retsu over Kaku. Remember that maxing X-Retsu gives Taka an extra 12 base bleed damage and 140 more crystal damage. Now, scale that with the crystal power you build and it becomes greater. Versus Kaku, as an assassin, your main goal is to kill quickly and efficiently. It's really pointless to max Kaku in my opinion. Why? 3 things.
1. Kaku maxed gives an addition 30 hp regen. Honestly though, you are probably going to go all in at max health right? Plus, you are probably going to be revealed.
2 & 3 (according to the wiki). Speed boost stays the same. Also, duration stays the same. Now, if it increased, I might try that out.

Tension Bow or Aftershock first? Top

Aight so the big questions is Tension Bow or Aftershock first. Personally, I would go Tension Bow. Why? Simple. Taka is an assassin and essentially, any assassin needs more damage output without increasing combat time. Although Aftershock's lifesteal is pretty tempting, do not rush it UNLESS the enemy team has a full tank.

Laner THREATS Top

With the addition of krestal, i would say he/she? (didn't read lore yet -_-) is one of your priorities.


ANNOYING LANERS

Combo #1 <30~40% hp (mid game/late game) *FINISHER* Top

Note if you see house of kamuha, i am saying to use a basic attack! (when your passive is ready!).
NOTE::WITHOUT Tension Bow THIS COMBO MAY NOT WORK.


Remember, this combo is suggested when the person is about 40% hp and you have 3,4,5 stacks of house ***uha as this combo almost always guarentees a kill. Now, the reason i suggest using Kaku first is due to the fact that you do not WANT THE SQUISHY LITTLE SORRY LANER TO SEE YOU. Next, make sure house kumaha is ready. Activate that on the LIL LANER . By this time he should be running back to turret (unless it's one of those dumb SAW). As he is dashing, immediately Kaiten (it has a decent range to help you reach the laner again). Fit in another House Kamuha and he/she should be nearly finished. Your last 2 moves would be first X-Retsu for the range to catch up to him and another House Kamuha. Then..... BOOM. GET REKT YA Celeste oooooohhhhhhhhh!?!?!?!?!

More Updates soon! Top

I'll be adding more items as we go. Need help on bb coding :(.
All the combos will take a while :(. ALL COMMENTS ARE WELCOME
