How to play as Julian

As discussed earlier, the hero does not have an ultimate ability, but his passive skill greatly enhances him on the battlefield. The following is a game plan for the various stages that will allow you to unleash your character's abilities and lead your team to victory.

Beginning of the game

Julian is quite strong in this phase of the game, as his passive grants enough magic lifesteal from empowered basic attacks. During the laning phase, it is advisable to go to the experience lane and unlock the first active skill in order to deal damage to enemies from afar.

After clearing waves of minions and reaching the second level unlock Julian's third skillto immobilize enemy targets before hitting them with your first ability. Making the most of combo skills will help you succeed in the early stages. Try not to play too aggressively to prevent unnecessary deaths and loss of gold.

Mid game

After opening the third active skill, Julian becomes even stronger, which allows him to dominate this stage of the game. The passive ability allows you to use many combinations of skills, making it even easier to lane. Below are some of the combos you can use while playing.

• 1v1 battle: skill 2 + skill 1 + improved skill 3 + improved basic attacks.
• Control in team fights: skill 2 + skill 1 + improved skill 3 + improved basic attacks.
• Tower destruction: skill 1 + skill 3 + improved skill 2 + improved basic attacks.

late game

In the later stages of the game, you need to be very careful about the combination of skills, as they really help to survive depending on the situation. While playing at this stage, you should avoid solo laning in order not to get ganked by the enemy hard carry, as the character is killed quite quickly by heroes that deal high damage with one or more shots.

Julian can become a real problem for low health targets after he finishes buying items from the build. The gameplay for this hero is based on constant farming and using combinations of abilities.

Conclusions

Julian is a great choice for ranked games. If you use ability combinations wisely and avoid control, you can deal massive damage to enemy heroes and lead the team to victory. We hope this guide was helpful. Feel free to share your builds and tactics for this character in the comments below.
