menu_bookHow to Play
Early Game
Levels 1–8
The 7.3b nerfs land hardest in the first levels. Duskbringer’s base damage drops to 60/115/170/225, its Dusk Trail bonus is lower at ranks 1 and 2, and Raptors now have more health (Crimson Raptor 1100 base, small Raptors 550). Expect a slower first clear than in 7.3a and do not invade on the assumption that you will out-clear the enemy jungler. Gank from fog: land Duskbringer to leave a trail and gain speed, then start Unspeakable Horror early, because the fear only triggers if the target stays in range for the full 2 seconds. A dash or blink can break that tether, so wait for the escape before committing.
- Reference build: Eclipse → Black Cleaver → Serylda's Grudge → Death's Dance → Guardian Angel.
- Summoner spells: Flash + Smite.
- Recast Paranoia when the target is isolated, open with Duskbringer on landing and keep Shroud of Darkness for the first hard crowd control aimed at you: blocking an ability doubles its attack-speed bonus for 5 seconds.
Late Game
Levels 9–15
Paranoia now has a 120/100/80-second cooldown (was 110/90/70), so you get fewer dives per game. Spend it to open an objective fight or catch a carry who has walked away from the team, not on a target your allies cannot reach. The darkness reduces enemy vision and removes their sight of allies; use that window to reposition before the recast. Health per level drops from 134 to 128, 84 less at level 15, so diving into a full team without follow-up is less survivable than before. Launch onto the backline only when your team can arrive within a few seconds.
Counters & Synergies
Jungle · Tier Ashield_with_houseCounters
Jax
Counter Strike dodges your attacks and ends in a stun. Try to block that stun with Shroud of Darkness and attack after it, or leave the duel.
Ezreal
Arcane Shift can break the tether of Unspeakable Horror or move him away after you land Paranoia. Wait for the blink before committing your fear.
Vayne
Tumble lets her reposition while attacking, Condemn can pin you against a wall after you land and her true damage cuts through bruiser items. Avoid landing next to terrain.
