HOW TO PLAY

Ixia guide for Season 41

Ixia is a Marksman hero. They need gold, a clean firing line and the patience to deal damage without exposing themselves to the enemy assassin. It is strongest when finishing a target that has already taken damage.

GAME PLAN

The opening is about gold and survival. Force a kill only after the opponent has spent an escape or battle spell.

After the first turret, rotate toward the objective while collecting safe waves; chasing empty fights delays the build.

Late in the game, hit the closest safe target. Crossing the fight to reach the enemy marksman usually ends badly.

Reference combo: S1 → S2 → AA → S1 (Recast) → AA. Practise the order, but do not force it while the target still has an escape.

BUILD
