Introduction

This build shines when the melee build doesn't. Coupled with Genji's buff to shuriken projectile speed, it makes this build more consistent and lethal than before!

Playstyle

  • Ramp up your attack speed, farm ult / credits off easy targets
  • Duel your hard counters safely from a distance
  • Win advantageous duels up close with high weapon attack and attack speed
  • Late game, combine [Dragon's Breath] for more win conditions

Advantages vs. Melee Build

  • Not forced to make high-risk-high-reward plays
  • Farm from a safe distance while exploiting wall-climb and mobility
  • Less mechanically demanding

Disadvantages

  • Weak against heavy poke comps who does that job better (generally)

Round Notes

Round Notes

Strategy: Play safe, farm at a distance. Follow up for kills.

I usually start with [Sacred Shuriken] . The two extra shurikens makes the left-click more reliable to hit and gives you good early game damage.

[Cybernetic Speed] underperforms without the other powers enabling it to shine

Stat Priority: Weapon Power (wp) Attack Speed (as) Armor

Early game, you're quite safe, farming near your supports LoS from soft angles.

I find this to be a great all-rounder build and it can melt tanks, though JQ is still tough because it's harder to land on her. It's also very easy to generate cash. Far easier than the Iaido-based builds because of the sheer shuriken damage output. Plus, it applies way more pressure to anyone trying to peel your targets. Definitely take Sacred Shuriken first as advised!

@Guest_4d3260ca Glad you had success with it! Those truly are the best matches, bully tank then roll the rest of the team. Insane!
