Playstyle Strengths

Hanzo has high burst potential but needs time to stack his Passive, so he works best with heroes who can keep the enemy CC'd, like Aurora, Belerick, and Tigreal.

Weaknesses

Hanzo fares less favorably against heroes with lots of mobility, such as Fanny, Lancelot, and Arlott, since it's difficult to build stacks on them, thus limiting Hanzo's damage.

Skill Priority

Level up in this order when playing Hanzo:

  1. Ninjutsu: Dark Mist Ninjutsu: Dark Mist

Top 3 Tips for Playing Hanzo

  1. Always start in the jungle — Hanzo farm the jungle, not the lane.
  2. Punish overextended supports and mages — avoid 1v1s against fighters with sustain.
  3. Ward enemy jungle entrances and counter-jungle at level 4 to break the enemy's early tempo.
