How to Beat Sora — Strategy
Sora is a fighter. The same strategic principles that beat fighters in general apply to Sora specifically:
- Kite them with ranged heroes — most fighters are short-range.
- Build defensive items in mid-game (Blade Armor, Radiant Armor depending on damage type).
- Don't fight in narrow choke points — fighters thrive there.
- Anti-heal if they have lifesteal-based sustain (Yu Zhong, X.Borg, Alucard).
