Sky Piercer
Tough Boots
Blade of the Heptaseas
Malefic Gun
Hunter Strike
Blade of Despair
When using this build. Focus on sky piercer first,Because with the chou emblem tank, he was a bit tanky at the beginning of the game. So, better focus on damage first. He can help hyper to start the battle when invading enemy creeps. Tips: 1.Focus on sky piercer first. Try to get stacked as many as possible at early game. 2.buy boots (depends on the enemy line up) (physical or magical) 3.buy blade of heptaseas for better penetration to the enemy. 4.buy malefic gun. Why?. Because malefic gun have passive that allows chou to move faster. At the same time, malefic guns can be used on enemy tanks more efficiently compared to malefic roar. (more focus on speed, attack, penetration). 5.By buying hunter strike, chou can move and clear lane even faster. Thanks for the thanks to the passive hunter strike which adds movement speed when hitting 5 times on the same creep. As well as can help hyper lord or turtle faster. You can catch remaining enemy faster while your hp was quite tanky. 4. For the highest damage, we will buy a blade of dispair. You can buy this item early if you already dominate your exp lane. With this item, enemies below 20% hp will be easily to eliminate.
Vitality
Seasoned Hunter
Concussive Blast
Vitality was chosen because chou at the beginning of the game was indeed a bit sluggish. So with vitality he has an extra 225 max hp at the beginning of the game to survive at exp lane even if the enemy in that lane is more than one. Seasoned hunter was chosen because it can speed up chou to invade creep enemies to level it up quickly at the same time this perk can help speed up the capture of turtles or even lords. The concussive blast was chosen because it is able to clear lanes quickly because the passive wave of this talent releases the magic around it. It is also an extra damage for chou when struggling in battle.
