SEASON 41 PROFILE

Blade of Roses

Lancelot

AssassinJungle

Soul Cutter increases damage whenever Lancelot moves, Puncture can reset on unmarked targets, and Thorned Rose strikes an area three times. His mobility requires a planned route; dashing through the same target twice loses the reset meant to carry him out.

    Use Thorned Rose when the enemy is near its centre and keep Phantom Execution to cross the response or finish the kill.

  3. 03LATE GAME

    In final fights, map a route in and out through heroes and minions before touching the back line.

Abilities at a glance

Hover or use the keyboard on any ability to read exactly what it does in game.Tap any ability to open its in-game explanation. Tap elsewhere to close it.

  1. HOW IT WORKS

    Each time Lancelot blinks or charges, his damage is increased by 7.5% for 4 seconds, up to 30%.

  2. HOW IT WORKS

    Lancelot charges in a designated direction, dealing 100–250 Physical Damage to enemies along the way and applying a Sword Mark to the first unmarked enemy hit. The Sword Mark lasts 3 seconds. If Lancelot successfully applies a Sword Mark to an enemy, the cooldown of this will reset.

  3. HOW IT WORKS

    Lancelot strikes three times in the target direction, dealing 225–400 Physical Damage per hit. Damage is reduced to 30% when multiple enemies are hit. Lancelot is untargetable and invincible during the attack. Enemies at the center take all three hits and are slowed by 20% for 0.5 seconds; the slow can stack. This skill benefits from 50% of Lancelot's Spell Vamp.

  4. HOW IT WORKS

    After a short charge, Lancelot performs an execution strike in the target direction and deals 350 Physical Damage. He is invincible throughout the attack.

OUR READING

Lancelot is struggling to convert games in this rank. That does not erase good matchups, but blind-picking the hero is difficult to justify right now.
