How to play
Flowborn (Marksman) is a hero who excels at sustained damage. By chaining Skill 1 into two Basic Attacks, Skill 2, a Basic Attack, and the Ultimate, he can deal heavy damage in team fights.
As a Marksman, when he cloaks himself in Flow at a base, stats like Attack Speed are enhanced. Spending Flow lets him put out an enhanced Basic Attack and healing. Skill 1 deals damage and healing to nearby enemies while applying Flow, and reduces the Cooldown of his other skills.
For leveling skills, prioritize the Ultimate first, and when the Ultimate is unavailable, prioritize Skill 1.
Advanced tips
Here are some tips if you're playing Flowborn (Marksman) and feel like your damage is lacking, you can't finish off enemies, or you struggle to survive.
A lack of damage is because it takes time to complete your equipment. Your skill Cooldowns are long in the early game, so focus on farming first. Survival comes down to positioning and protection from your allies.
Once your equipment is complete, put out sustained damage with Flow and enhanced Basic Attacks, and shine in team fights.

Flowborn (Marksman) — Early / Mid / Late Game
元流の子（マークスマン）は、回復で長引く撃ち合いを制するバランス型のファームマークスマンです。公開ガイドのデータでは、抵抗の靴、エンドレスブレード、シャドーブレードを中心とした構成が示されており、安全なサイドでファームして終盤まで伸び、味方の優先目標を守る役として使われます。 捕まらずに後衛として伸びる好機まで元流の子（マークスマン）が届くドラフトのときに選びましょう。逆に、彼のキットが機能するために必要なタイミングを相手が潰してくる対面のときは避けましょう。
Early game: 序盤は、サポートの後ろで安全にファームし、レーン戦を生き延びてマークスマンとして伸びる好機まで到達します。
Mid game: ライフスティール（吸血）のアイテムが揃い始める段階です。吸血がダメージと重なれば、撃ち合いのパターンが互角から有利へと変わっていきます。
Late game: 終盤は、フルビルドが揃い、公開ガイドが説明する強くなるタイミングに元流の子（マークスマン）が到達します。アイテムが完成すれば、長引く戦いは彼に有利になります。
