Hero Skills
Chu's skills are all dashes. Its main advantage is constant movement. Use mobility to your advantage, easily catch up with enemies or dodge their attacks. Below we will tell you more about three active skills and one passive buff.
Passive Skill - Speed and Charge!
When Chu moves, his punching power gradually builds up. So, after 8 units passed, his basic attack will deal 180% damage and briefly slow the opponent by 80%. Can also be used to effectively destroy enemy towers or against monsters.
The first skill is Jeet Kune Do
The hero makes a dash and strikes in the indicated direction. After a successful attack, the character can repeat the skill again, and in total he deals up to three hits. The latter will also launch enemies into the air, blocking their abilities. If the third time was successful and Chu hit the opponent, then this will reset the cooldown of the second Shunpo ability.
Skill XNUMX - Shunpo
The hero makes a dash in the marked direction. Further, he will receive immunity to any control (except for suppression), increase his indicators of physical penetration, activate the shield. Duration - 2 seconds.
Ultimate - Way of the Dragon
Chu performs an elaborate stunt. He spins around and kicks his opponent, dealing damage and knocking them aside. If you press the ability again, the fighter will inflict an additional series of blows right in the air. Lifesteal from skills is activated, the enemy cannot interrupt the series of blows.
Suitable emblems
Since Chu can become a tank or a fighter, then we offer you several possible emblem options. Tactics and assembly change depending on your position in the game, keep this in mind before choosing emblems.
Assassin Emblems
- Trembling - gives 16 adaptive attack.
- Master Assassin — will help in 1v1 battles, increases damage by 7% in battles with single targets.
- quantum charge - HP recovery and acceleration after destroying an enemy.
Tank emblems
- Agility — increases the hero’s movement speed.
- Resistance — defense increases if the character has less than 50% HP.
- Shock Wave — additional magical damage, which depends on the amount of Chu’s HP.
Best Spells
Flash - Chu attacks in melee, so he must have an additional skill to quickly move towards or away from opponents.- torpor - a combat spell, after using which enemies turn to stone for a short time. This stun is enough for the hero and allies to deal devastating damage to the enemy team.

How to play Chu
Chu has many advantages: good damage, long stuns and powerful dashes, many combinations, mobility. Of the minuses, we note that he does not have massive damage, you cannot immediately ult from the bushes. Next, we will analyze each stage of the game in more detail.
At first, the hero is very weak and vulnerable. Until the fourth level and the first item, it is better not to stick your head out at all, but to carefully farm on the line. Next, it will be easier to play one on one or in a gank with your allies. Also, you should not engage in battle with several opponents, since there is no massive damage.
You can use a tricky advantage - direct your ultimate towards your own towerso that it also deals heavy damage to the enemy. Chu can push faster thanks to his passive skill. Before destroying the tower, walk back and forth and increase the damage from the basic attack.
In the middle stage, when you feel that you are strong enough, you can carefully pick up lone characters in the jungle or on the lane. For a successful fight use the following combination of skills:
- Hide in the bushes and wait. When you see an opponent, quickly get close to him with second skill, increasing their attack and penetration along the way, while receiving support in the form of a shield.
- After that, activate a series of strikes first skill. You will deal a lot of damage and fully recharge your Shunpo ability.
- Reuse second skill.
- Finish off your opponent ultimate, leaving him no chance to dodge or escape from a series of mid-air attacks.
In the late game one-on-one fights, you are practically invincible thanks to effective control and fast movement. However, keep in mind that in team battles, all kinds of blows and skills will fly at the character, because you take only one enemy out of the total mass into the camp.
Try to go behind your back and destroy the main damage dealers - shooters, mages, assassins. After that, you can safely join the general teamfight.
Chu is an interesting and versatile character with a medium difficulty level. Our guide will help you fully master his abilities, and emblem and item builds will increase his effectiveness. Try, play, train, and victory will definitely be yours! We are waiting for your comments and questions.
Firstly, Chu does not need an adaptive attack, you need to buy Adaptive Penetration because Chu is played precisely at the expense of it.
Secondly, Chu, even on the line, it may not be 1 on 1 against the enemy, but against 2 enemies (I often had this), it is better to take “Weapon Master”, this way you will get more profit from the items.
Thirdly, it is better to take a non-quantum charge, it is not so effective, it is better to take “Deadly Ignition” This way you will do more damage during jumps.
The guide is not bad, but there are questions to the point that chu does not have massive damage from 1 spell, there is massive damage, you just need to aim also you didn’t talk about freestyles with a flash, such as 3 phase 1 skill + flash that prolong the dash, and also didn’t say about freestyles ult + flash that changes the position of the hero, that's all. And so the guide is not bad, it's very nice that in the CIS the community does not disregard newcomers
Thanks for the addition! We are glad that the guides help new players to quickly understand the essence of the game!
