Hero Skills

Passive skill — Ninjutsu: blade-leaves

After a normal attack or skill damage, Hanabi creates petal blades. They bounce at nearby enemies up to 4 times. The first bounce can deal 40% of the base attack, and the rest - 85% of the previous one.

The first skill Ninjutsu: Balance

The hero uses the Scarlet Shadow Secret Technique and gains a special shield for 5 seconds. While active, Hanabi gains 20% movement speed, 25% bonus attack speed, and becomes immune to crowd control effects. If at this time the character deals damage, then 20% of it will also become a shield.

The shield power cannot be more than 50% of the character's maximum health points. If you deal damage to minions, then only 10% will go into a shield.

The second skill Ninjutsu: Soul Scroll

Hanabi launches an energy scroll at the target location, dealing physical damage to enemies in its path and slowing them down. Enemies hit by this skill will receive a special mark that will allow them to deal additional physical damage.

Ultimate - Forbidden Jutsu: Higanbana

The character throws a Higanbana in the indicated direction, which fully expands when it hits the target, dealing physical damage to them and immobilizing them for 0,8 seconds. The effect spreads to nearby enemies. After a while, they will also take damage and be immobilized.

Best Emblems

Best for Hanabi Arrow emblems. Select the talents as shown in the screenshot.

• Agility - Gives you extra attack speed.
• Bargain hunter - will allow you to buy items faster, as they will become cheaper by 5%.
• Right on target - basic attacks will be able to slow down the target and reduce the attack speed of the enemy.

Suitable spells

Flash - The most popular spell for a character. The hero lacks mobility and skills to quickly move around the map and dodge enemy control, so flash is great in most cases.

Shield - This spell will increase the hero's survivability. It must be taken into the match if there are characters in the enemy pick that can deal a lot of instant damage.

Top build

Hanabi is a versatile hero that can perform well with different builds. Next, we will present a top-end equipment assembly that can be used in almost any match. Some items will need to be replaced depending on the peak of the enemies.

1. Spit of corrosion.
2. Haste Boots.
3. Demon Hunter Sword.
4. Golden staff.
5. Blade of Despair.
6. Evil growl.

As additional equipment, you can collect Trident, if you need an item that will reduce the healing of enemy heroes. Also buy Endless battle, if you need additional lifesteal and pure physical damage.

How to play Hanabi

The following are tips to help you play better as a character in various situations.

• Try to play carefully at the beginning of the game. Do not show aggression and try to be closer to the tower, as the hero is very weak without acquired items.
• Focus on farming as Hanabi is very item dependent. You can participate in team battles after purchasing the two main items.
• Hanabi has a low amount of total health, but her first skill allows her to avoid crowd control effects from enemy characters. It is best to attack enemies after a certain number of shield points have accumulated.
• You should not rely solely on the first ability, as the shield can quickly run out. It is better to position the character so that she can freely shoot at enemies, but at the same time she is not available for control effects and does not take damage.
  
• Lifesteal from skills allows you to restore a lot of health, which can greatly help in team fights.
• Always activate your first active ability during teamfights. And thanks to the passive skill, you can quickly get rid of waves of minions.
• With the second ability, you can restore some of Hanabi's mana points, which can help if she runs out.
• Use the ultimate in a crowd of enemies, as it allows you to control each of them, and not just the hero that the skill hit.
