How to play Fang?
Private Ear Fang is the best hero in Honor of Kings if you manage to use his combo and land 4 basic attacks to stack after marking the enemy target with 1st skill. His most damage output comes from his first skill.
- Try to use your first skill on the enemy while laning,
- Try to land as many basic attacks as possible,
- Try not to get hit.
- Your 2nd skill is the most significant part of your kit, as it helps a lot in escaping enemy assassins who try to kill you. Therefore, Always save your 2nd skill to Escape and save your Flash ability for a crucial fight before the objective.
- If you can play Private Ear Fang properly by utilizing his 2nd skill, you can hardly carry any games in Honor of Kings. Use your ult in teamfights to slow the engagers. You can also use your ult to slow down the enemies who are chasing you.
Fang Combos:
- Main Combo: 2nd skill+1st skill+ult+x4 basic attacks
That is the only combo of Fang in HoK because most of his damage comes from his auto attacks and proper use of skills 1 and 2. So try to get good positioning and auto-attack as much as possible, and use your skill 2 to position yourself properly.
Fang Counter:
Fang is harder to counter than other Marksmen heroes in HoK because of his insane mobility and burst damage through his 1st skill. But if you build the best Honor of Kings items/equipment for his burst attack damage, you can counter Fang, The Private Ear, effortlessly. And always try to bait his second skill before engaging with him. If you just engage him blindly and he uses his 2nd skill, you can easily get killed by him.
Here are some HOK heroes who can counter Fang:
Counter Heroes | How? |
---|---|
Judge Dee | Judge Dee can purify the mark of her skill 1, which denies all the burst damage from her, making him the strong hero pick against Fang. |
Beast | Beast has so much shield on his ult, and he can negate the burst damage of Fang’s 1st skill and peel his team from him. |
Kai | Kai can just go all in on Fang after he uses his second skill and kill him with his fast movement speed and massive burst damage. |
Prince of Lanling | Fang cannot even proc her full stack of skill1 against Lanling because he can quickly burst marksman. Laning needs to wait for his second skill of Fang to counter him. |
Frost | Sometimes Fang goes all in on squishy champs to burst them down, but it is tough for him to go in and do anything because of Fang. |
