Taka does: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I58q1oyvu7g Taka.
Taka is a very mobile assassin, able to sneak in and out of battle while having the ability to dodge debuffs and damage. His A ability allows him to avoid damage and debuffs, his B ability allows him to turn invisible to opponents and heal while invisible, his C ability makes him deal damage to an enemy and bleed them. Kaku so you get 2 skill points at level 6, allowing you to upgrade both
Kaiten and
X-Retsu.
House Kamuha|
|
Slot: Heroic Perk 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.) This perk is what makes Taka very mobile. As long as he can keep attacking an enemy, he will keep getting that move speed bonus and makes it easy to chase while stutterstepping. The WP ratio on the perk makes a WP build very viable since it will make him deal insane DPS. However, when building CP, the main purpose of the perk is to keep up with enemies. Important: Always try to have your perk up at all times. That way, you can receive the full benefits of the 5 Ki stacks, enabling you to deal more damage and have your abilities on a lower cooldown. |
Kaiten|
|
Slot: A Taka flips over his target, cutting it with his switchblade. Taka is invulnerable to damage & debuffs while in mid-air. This ability is Taka's best ability. It makes him avoid any damage and debuffs. This is so helpful in so many situations where enemy try to crowd control you and you just dodge it. In a sense, it is like  Reflex Block. The damage from this ability is also reasonably high, especially if building CP.
|
Kaku|
|
Slot: B 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 and Flare Guns can still see Taka. This ability heals Taka while he is invisible. This is the ability that makes Taka a pain in the ***. When he uses this, he turns invisible and can only be revealed by damaging him with a skillshot/ability/autoattack. He can also be revealed with the use of a  Flare, if he is within the radius of the
Flare. Make sure that you try to avoid getting flared as a Taka, it is the bane of your existence. In addition, it also heals Taka, so you can use it to keep your health up when you are out of combat. This ability can also be used to refresh the
House Kamuha timer. When you have Ki Stacks, it should be shown as a small hand symbol on the screen. when the timer is almost depleted, you can use Kaku to keep your stacks up if you think you will need your Ki stacks for an approaching fight.
|
X-Retsu|
|
Slot: C Taka bursts through his target, carving an X with his switchblades for lethal damage. The target suffers a mortal wound, reducing its healing by 50% and taking damage per second over the next 3 seconds. The wound's duration is refreshed whenever Taka mortal strikes this target. Grants bonus Ki stacks upon use based on number of ability points in X-Retsu. This is an ultimate that greatly hurts heroes relying on healing or lifesteal, such as  Lyra,
 Krul,
 Adagio. It reduces the healing that they get, and it also gives you Ki stacks. This is why it should be used at the start of the fight to get your Ki stacks up and to reduce overall survivability of that hero X-Retsu is used on. This synergies very well with your perk as you can constantly reduce the healing that target receives and bleed the target to death by auto attacking the target with Mortal Strikes.

Taka are
Serpent Mask and
Breaking Point. Now let's take a look at what each item provides. Serpent Mask|
|
The only lifesteal item in the game thus far. Useful if you find that you need to sustain more in fights if you already do enough damage. |
Breaking Point|
|
Stacks up more damage the more you deal. Combine this with
Serpent Mask and you can sustain with more damage and attack speed.
|
Sorrowblade|
|
Pure damage item. When in doubt, build this XD |
Tension Bow|
|
Taka Taka Taka with
Tension Bow is fun. burst damage is high, can delete squishy carries easy.
|
Taka are
Alternating Current and
Broken Myth. Now let's take a look at what each item provides. Aftershock|
|
build this with
Tension Bow and you get ... Proc Taka!!! Also used for burst damage or to take out tanks with insane health.
|
Alternating Current|
|
Gives
Taka more mobility with his perk. and some crystal power :)
|
Broken Myth|
|
Get this if you can stay alive long enough in fights for this to be useful. |
Shatterglass|
|
Pure damage if you don't know what else to build XD |
Stormcrown, you will find it very easy to farm minions. This increases your jungle clear speed and gives you more time to do other stuff, such as ganking lane and invading jungle or taking/sieging objectives. The health and damage from
Stormcrown is also effective when fighting against heroes, as the true damage ignores any amor and shield they have bought. However, this needs to be further supplemented by WP or CP items, otherwise the damage is too meagre later in the game. You should be able to win fights at this stage of the game once you have gotten
Stormcrown. X-Retsu, then proceed to autoattack until that hero dies. Save your
Kaiten. Whenever you see the enemy using a high damage or CC ability that will screw you up really bad, use your
Kaiten to help you survive.
Fountain of Renewal, make sure to stagger the use of yours and the roamer's
Fountain of Renewal so that you can maximise the heal output. If you get
Atlas Pauldron, target the most dangerous enemy with the highest attack speed with
X-Retsu, then tap
Atlas Pauldron. This makes your
Atlas Pauldron difficult to block, possibly slowing the enemy enough so they are not a damage threat, allowing you to finish him off while keeping you team alive.
Ardan|
|
Ardan can give
Taka a move speed boost and health barrier with
 Vanguard, providing the squishy assassin what he needs to survive in a fight. His
 Gauntlet further traps the enemy team so their mobility is greatly hindered, allowing
Taka to attack them while they cannot escape.
Vanguard is one of the best support tools for Taka as it slows the enemy and boosts his already fast movement speed when hitting enemies, making him stick to enemies much more easily.
|
Lance|
|
Lance and
Taka are an aggressive early game comp. With this comp, you should invade jungle frequently and exploit the early game advantage, snowballing an early game lead to a victory. Lance's
 Impale is excellent at helping
Taka chase, while his
 Gythian Wall can be used to peel enemies defensively away from his ranged carry.
Gythian Wall is a very useful CC ability as it can potentially stun enemies out of their ultimates, or used offensively to push enemies closer to
Taka.
|
Phinn|
|
Phinn is notorious for his slow movement speed and immense CC. This works well with
Taka, as they can both be such a nuisance in fights that it draws attention away from the lane carry. However, the slow movement speed is terrible to have with
Taka, as he cannot keep up with
Taka to protect him well enough.
Phinn does synergize well with squishy immobile carries as he can bring the fight to them or peel for that carry.
Taka and
Phinn have the ability to isolate a lone enemy and take them out quick, so watch for opportunities to pick them off 1 by 1.
|
Catherine|
|
Catherine has a reliable stun and silence.
 Merciless Pursuit is good for locking down an enemy so
Taka can chase better or use
X-Retsu while the enemy cannot use
Reflex Block to block the mortal wound. The silence from
 Blast Tremor is highly effective in shutting down an enemy team because the roamer cannot use
Fountain of Renewal to save teammates at a crucial moment. It also makes enemy movements more predictable as they cannot use abilities or boots to move at different speeds. This is a good time for
Taka to burst enemies down.
