• Secondary: Biscuit Delivery, Magical Footwear
• Shards: Adaptive Force, Adaptive Force, Health Scaling

Skill Order: Q > W > E

Key Tips:

• Place turrets (Q) before laning phase starts to conserve mana
• Always fight within turret range for maximum damage
• Aim stun (E) slightly behind enemies for higher accuracy
• Use turrets to zone enemies from objectives and control brushes
