How to play
Donghuang is a Support who can apply powerful Crowd Control to a single enemy. The combo Skill 2 → Ultimate is especially strong.
An orb orbiting around him deals damage to nearby enemies while healing his own HP. Skill 1 summons a new orb, and Skill 2 launches that orb at a targeted area to deal damage and Stun. The Ultimate pins down a single enemy, and while it lasts, the damage he and that enemy take is shared between them.
For leveling skills, prioritize the Ultimate first; when you can't take the Ultimate, prioritize Skill 1.
Skills (level values & ratios)
Passive: Soul Sacrifice：Generates a Dark Orb that, upon touching an enemy, deals 100 (100 + 50% of Magic ATK) Magic Damage plus Magic Damage equal to 3% of the target's Max HP. At the same time, Tai Yi restores 162 (96 + 40% of Magic ATK + 2% of HP) HP.
When a Dark Orb touches a new enemy unit, it restores 1% of Max HP.
Up to 3 Dark Orbs can exist at once.
Skill 1: Eclipse：Releases energy, dealing 300 (300 + 40% of Magic ATK) Magic Damage to surrounding enemies and generating 1 Dark Orb around himself. Up to 3 Dark Orbs can exist at once.
When Skill 1 hits an enemy, its CD and MP cost are reduced by 50%. With 3 Dark Orbs, it restores 150 (150 + 60% of Magic ATK) HP. CD (s) 5→4.5 / Base Damage 300→600 / HP Restore 150→300 / Dark Orb Restore 96→196 / MP Cost 40
Skill 2: Dark Impact：Consumes all Dark Orbs (at least 1) and charges toward a designated position. Each Dark Orb accumulates its impact at the center, dealing 500 (500 + 60% of Magic ATK) Magic Damage to enemies in range. Casting Skill 2 increases his Move Speed by 30% for 1 second, plus an additional 10% for each Dark Orb consumed.
The first Dark Orb released reduces the Move Speed of enemies in range by 30% for 1 second, the second greatly reduces the Move Speed of enemies in range for 1 second, and the third stuns enemies in range for 1 second. Base Damage 500→1000 / Slow 30%→60% / CD (s) 6 / MP Cost 70
Ultimate: Forsaken Contract：Suppresses an enemy hero for 2 seconds. During suppression, damage taken is shared between himself and the target hero.
Casting Skill 3 immediately grants 3 Dark Orbs, and during suppression his rotation speed increases by 25% (rotation speed increases by 5% for every 50 Magic ATK, up to 100%). CD (s) 60→50 / MP Cost 100
Donghuang — Early / Mid / Late Game
Early game: In the early game he struggles with last-hitting from range and is somewhat weak. His farming ability is easily suppressed by opponents, so he comes alive when he coordinates with allies to gank and roam.
Mid game: From the mid game on, his play revolves around roaming and using the Ultimate (Fallen God Pact) to trade "HP for HP." The Ultimate is a powerful Crowd Control that Immobilizes an enemy for 2 seconds, but its damage is modest, so you need allies to quickly kill the target while it's locked down.
Late game: In team fights, both you and the enemy take the same amount of damage while the Ultimate is active, so managing your own HP is crucial. Skill 2 (YaoDragon Candle Omen) is strongest when you have three dark energy orbs, but it activates slowly, so use it in time with allied Crowd Control.
