Ovrview Top
This is a mid/late game assassination build built for high burst damage. You don't become effective until you get your ulti. It is important that you watch your ki stacks, because you live and die by them.
Early game Top
early game farm the forrest, avoid the lane until you're level 6. Stay mostly in your half, maybe creeps on their half of the middle, but don't counter forest without support. Get irongaurd ASAP as it drastically increases your gold received. After irongaurd you should build for tornado trigger because u need the attack speed to farm, the other items are for assassination.
Mid Game Top
by the 15 minuet mark your ulti should be at least level two (mid game starts a little before then), u should have most of your core items and you are now ready to begin unleashing your true horror. There are a few things to remember during mid game.
A) you should never engage in long fights
B) know who your targeting, if you think they can survive an initial assault make sure you have support and/or kaku
ok now the fun part, kills
heres how u should go about attacking and why:
Forrest:
hide in a bush till somebody with low health/ a squishy goes by. Activate kaku and follow them. When u know they are alone, use X-retsu and one auto attack. Most of your damage is already done, X-retsu damage, then your big hit: you will have 4 ki stacks so its probably gonna be a crit, then your tension bow will give 180 bonus damage, and because u used a special u will get the slice damage from aftershock (significantly boosted if u have shaterglass). Now you have a judgment call to make, use your auto attack until aftershock is recharged, then kaiten and get aftershocks bonus, or use kaiten immediately, whichever u like better.
then get away asap, if your opponet is still alive but has low health, follow with kaku and kill with kaiten, of they have like half, run away.
late game Top
Late game for my purposes is when:
-u have final build (not options, just the four)
-level 12
This is when u start to be a terrifying flanker. Basically anybody u choose is good as dead. The strategy is about the same as in the forrest. Just be more careful when looking for reinforcements and following a fleeing enemy.
Don't push the lane to hard, but if your team pushes, focus on the turret or heroes, not enemies. Make sure u have kaku to run away if needed.
When fighting the kraken, don't strike first, u don't have enough health, but you are able to take a few hits by properly timing kaiten.
team fights Top
This is not your strong suit, watch the enemies health, and when anybody drops below half health, strike. After you strike, Activate kaku and wait for another enemy to drop low. If your team has the advantage then be a little more gutsy with attacking, and if your teammates are alive, i usually will follow somebody for the ace even if i die in the process.
Item Breakdown Top
Items:
-Tornado Trigger
-your basic attack is slow, and this in combined with irongaurd will really rack up the gold. It also complements crits from your ki stacks nicely.
-Tension Bow
-Really just for the huge hit every 6 seconds, which really is the crux of your set. Get this second
-Aftershock
-along with tension bow, these are the two big hit items that your set revolves around, it also compliments your life steal.
-Frostburn
-Since you need an energy batter, this is a natural choice, not always needed, but the slow is really a nice addition.
-Clockwork
-Choose this if you want to spam everything. Also, if u don't have tornado trigger, u will need the extra ability cooldown
-Shaterglass
-Boosts your crystal damage considerably, this is my favorite
-Journey Boots
-The speed lets you follow/flee faster, and gives u a nice health boost
-Crucible
-Makes you less squishy, and if the enemy team has a taka or a burst damage dealer this helps out a good deal.
-Tyrant's Monacle
-for maxing out those crits from your ki stacks, not my favorite because most matches are decided before to many auto attacks are landed, and the tornado triggers boosts speed and crits, which is much more important.
