Abilities & how to counter them
What each of K'Sante's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
불굴의 본능크산테의 스킬이 대상에게 표식을 남겨 다음번 기본 공격 시 추가 피해를 입힙니다.총공세 시 크산테가 모든 기본 공격과 스킬로 입히는 피해량이 증가합니다.
Strong: ability hits mark you; his autos consume marks for bonus damage. Weak: standard bruiser chip — just don't feed free marks in trades.
Q
엔토포 타격크산테가 타격해 짧은 일직선상에 있는 적에게 피해를 입히고 둔화시킵니다.적중 시 엔토포 타격 중첩을 1회 얻습니다. 2회 중첩되면 크산테가 적들을 끌어당기는 충격파를 발사합니다.총공세 시 재사용 대기시간이 감소합니다.
Strong: fast slashing pokes; the third hit KNOCKS UP. Weak: rhythm-based — sidestep the predictable third swing.
W
길을 여는 자크산테가 충전하며 받는 피해량이 감소합니다. 이후 돌진하며 적을 뒤로 밀어내고 기절시킵니다.총공세 시 피해량이 증가하고 더는 적을 뒤로 밀어내거나 기절시키지 않습니다.
Strong: a charging ram that stuns against walls with damage reduction. Weak: the wind-up is interruptible with hard CC.
E

Strong: dashes to allies or short hops — surprising mobility for a tank. Weak: the solo hop is tiny — isolate him from allies.
R
총공세크산테가 적을 뒤로 밀어내며 경로에 있는 벽을 뚫고 날려 버립니다. 이후 총공세 상태에 돌입하고 적을 뒤쫓아 돌진하며, 이때 방어력이 감소하는 대신 피해량과 체력 회복량이 증가하고 변형된 스킬을 얻습니다.
Strong: knocks you THROUGH a wall into a 1v1 arena, trading tank stats for damage. Weak: All Out drops his resists — it's also YOUR burst window; don't hug walls.
Itemization
