Threat Hero Notes
1
 Vox To be determined.
1
 Skaarf The little dragon, Deadly early game, but easily becomes one of the squishiest in game late match. Steer clear of those fireballs and puddles, and beware his ult, you will burst him down in a second.
1
 Celeste To be honest, I Havn't played against her much, but judging her stats, you could take some hits from her, and burst her down, she has the lowest in game health.
2
 SAW Saw can pose a threat if you can't time very well, The trick is to Run in, Get off your X-retsu early, A Kaiten to seal the deal, and chase until you can repeat to kill him.
3
 Petal Is a threat if you can't predict very much, and if she counter builds you. (I hate Frostburn). My tactic is to approach while she is down at least 1/5 her health, then Use my alt, and Kaiten immediately after. She will either turn and run, or stay and die.
4
   No Threat
5
 Ringo Not sure bout Ringo, he is good, Long range, decent health, good mobility, but suffers Burst damage. He is mild to take down, assuming your position and timing is right.
6
 Taka Yourself can hurt you, Seems redundant, but Taka/ Koshka builds are made to assassinate Tanks, Like you. Try to keep hidden more then him, use Flares and Scout traps as possible, and stay in bushes, Make sure you are ready to run if he bursts you.
6
 Glaive He scares me, but I scare him at the same time. He can smash you into his turret during a gank, Inti his teammates in the jungle, and can stun. He is terrifying! Not only that, but his stats are terrific! Good health, Attack, slow speed is his only counter, which he easily makes up for with boots.
7
 Adagio Adagio, The fragile anti-assassin. He can take a hit or two with a good build, Stutterstep dominate you with a. Tornado trigger, and has a heal, Attack boost, and stun ult (Worst alt of all)! Take him out as soon as possible, if you can't, put a focus mark on him, and get your team's help. Adagio can be scary.
7
 Joule Not super duper bad if you aim for her sides and back, Joules abilities can get you trapped and killed in a heartbeat. Don't let her corner you, or don't get caught by her and her teammates.
8
 Ardan Tanks, Bane of the Assassin's poor existence. Especially yours, because you are a Tanky assassin. This leads to large, enlongated fights, that really don't need to happen. Unless you know you can kill under 10 seconds, I suggest you don't engage, unless you wanna waste energy and health.
8
 Catherine Same ar Ardan, except better Ultimate, stun, and a shield that blocks damage.
9
   No Threat
10
 Krul Krul, A bane to everything, he heals massive amounts in the middle of combat, exchanges your Hp for his own, And has a skillshot stun. Avoid him at all costs, you will meet Death instantly.
10
 Koshka Koshka, current meta. Insanely OP with crystal, she can Catnip frenzy you. Pounce, Twirl, and put you on your death bed. Be extremely careful if you choose to 1v1 her, you know what? Just don't.

Welcome To The Juggernaut Taka Guide! Top

I would just like to thank you for using this guide.I have also noted that this guide is costly, But it relies on getting the kill and farming. Enjoy seeing my concept for this beast of a "Tank-sassin."

Introduction Top

Welcome to my guide on the elusive Juggernaut Taka, A take on the Paladin Taka. Let's take a standard look at Taka and his Abilities.

Taka; Taka weaves through the battlefield, eliminating targets with his switchblades. He lives on the knife's edge, compensating for fragile defenses with agility and stealth.

House Kamuha Heroic Perk; Taka's Critical Strikes have 30% lifesteal and grant a burst of speed. Every 5 seconds, Taka is guaranteed a critical strike. Taka gains 1 Ki stack when he performs an ability or critical strike (up to 5 stacks). Each stack of ki speeds up his guaranteed critical strikes 0.9 and grants 25% cooldown acceleration.

KaitenFirst Ability; Taka flips over his target, cutting it with his switchblades. Taka doesn't take damage in mid-air.

NOTE: Can be used to avoid Several Ultimate abilities (Ardan's, Adagios) Also, Overdrive does not consume energy.

KakuSecond Ability; 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. When maxed, this ability heals Taka for 1% of his max health per second while invisible.

NOTE: Useful for chasing and escaping, it grants you a slight speed boost while invisible, great for catching up for a final kill. Also use it right before you die, then retreat to base in the safety of a bush.

X-RetsuUltimate Ability; Taka bursts through his target, carving an X with his Switchblades for lethal damage. The target suffers a mortal wound, reducing healing by 50%, and dealing damage over the next five seconds.

NOTE: Run up, burst, dash, also useful for getting enemies through turrets, then dash back out.

Roles of The Items {CORE} Top

Fountain of Renewal Fountain is used to support your low health teammates in fights, or heal when you think you are safe. I usually buy it second or third, depending on the situation.

Crucible This is what gives you and your teammates reflex block (Blocks ability secondary effects)and you your survivability. I usually build this first.

Journey Boots Who doesn't use these? You can just use these for getting away, or chasing, anyway, just boots. Always great to have.

Clockwork The clock that gives cool down acceleration, allowing you to ability spam a lot more. Greatest thing ever for high damage abilities, for high DPS.

Situational items Top

Bonesaw I use this a lot if my team goes Weapon power, because it increases my DPS and theirs against enemies because even if they don't have armor, they have that little bit built in as part of their stats.
Aegis Great for going against High Crystal power teams, negates a ton of damage for you.

Broken Myth Sweet sweet piercing, this time it doesn't work for your teammates, but it still works great if your opponents have Aegis, or other shields.

Metal Jacket A sanction if the enemy team goes full weapon, allowing you to stay in longer, and be the ultimate tank-sassin.

Crucible mega survivability, who doesn't need 900 more health?

Tips and Tricks Top

Never try to enter a fight at low health, unless you can burst and get out instantly.

Always position yourselft right for a quick execution on enemies fleeing from your team. Bushes are best used for this.

If you need a burst of speed so that you can get your hot off, use Kaku to speed yourself up.

Always be ready to react.

Always remeber, support is key.

Have fun!
