How to play
Shangguan is an Assassin-type Mage with high burst damage. By chaining Skill 2 into the Ultimate, Ultimate, Skill 1, Ultimate, Ultimate, Ultimate, you can trigger the Ultimate's effect rapidly to deal high burst damage.
Shangguan gains an enhancement every 3 Basic Attacks. Skill 1 deals damage to enemies along its path with her brush and ink. Skill 2 paints a picture with the brush at a chosen location, dealing damage and Slow. When ink from different skills overlaps, bonus damage occurs. The Ultimate begins a dash, and on contact with ink it triggers its effect and lets her dash again.
For your skill leveling, prioritize the Ultimate first, and at levels where the Ultimate isn't available yet, prioritize Skill 1.
Skills (level values & ratios)
Passive: Piercing Brush：The 3rd basic attack becomes an enhanced basic attack, dealing an additional 255 (255+50% of Magic ATK) Magic Damage to enemies along the path. When the ink from each skill touches each other, deals 255 (255+50% of Magic ATK) Magic Damage to nearby enemies (50% damage on consecutive hits within 1 second). Touching the brush formation restores 100 (100+22% of Magic ATK) HP and enhances the basic attack. Enhanced Damage 255〜510 / Contact Damage 255〜510 / HP Restore 100〜240
Skill 1: Ink Burst：Flings ink in the designated direction, dealing 200 (200+40% of Magic ATK) Magic Damage to enemies it touches. When it reaches its maximum distance, the ink explodes, dealing 200 (200+40% of Magic ATK) Magic Damage. Base Damage 200→400 / CD (s) 5 / MP Cost 30
Skill 2: Seething Script：Runs the brush with a chosen point as the start and his own position as the end. The moment the brush touches the ground, deals 150 (150+20% of Magic ATK) Magic Damage to enemies. Deals 300 (300+40% of Magic ATK) Magic Damage to enemies touched along the brush's path and reduces Move Speed by 25% for 2 seconds.

Each time the dash hits an object or another active skill's cast, dashing can be performed again by inputting a movement command within 3 seconds. Dashing 5-50 times against enemies during the dash sends him leaping into the air (targetable while airborne), removing all types of CC, and continuously attacking nearby enemies, dealing 460 (460+70% of Magic ATK) Magic Damage (dashing 3/4/5 times attacks a cumulative 4/7/10 times respectively; damage to the same unit is reduced to 25%).

Shangguan — Early / Mid / Late Game
Early game: In the early game, play off your other skills and chip away with calligraphy-themed skills that deal Magic Damage to enemies along their path and at the point of impact. Your HP is squishy, so avoid risky approaches.
Mid game: In the mid game, use your other skills as a springboard to quickly close in with your Ultimate, building up dash charges (combo) in advance and then unloading your damage all at once.
Late game: In the late game, your Ultimate lets you dash all around the battlefield, and after five strokes of calligraphy you become a burst dealer who delivers a powerful strike from above. You're squishy, so your entry timing is the key.
