Counters
Strong vs
Lancelot counters long-range Mages, such as Cecilion and Pharsa, because there is a delay to their skills and Lancelot can use his 1st Skill to dodge them while going in for the kill.
Countered by
Weak vs
Lancelot is weak against heroes who can counter his mobility like Minsitthar and Phoveus, as his 1st Skill and Ultimate will be heavily restricted.

Passive — Soul Cutter (Buff)
Each time Lancelot charges, his damage is increased by 7.5% for 4s, up to 30% (stacks to 4).
Mechanic note: Lancelot's charge skills (S1 Puncture, S2 Thorned Rose) are all Blink — movement ability that can pass through obstacles.
Skill 1 — Puncture (Mobility · AOE)
Cooldown: 14.0s base · Mana Cost: 40
Lancelot charges in the target direction, dealing 150 (+50% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies along the way, and applying a Sword Mark to the first unmarked enemy hit. Sword Mark lasts 3s.
If Lancelot successfully applies a Sword Mark to an enemy, the skill's cooldown is reset.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cooldown | 14.0 | 13.2 | 12.4 | 11.6 | 10.8 | 10.0 |

Skill 2 — Thorned Rose (AOE · Slow)
Cooldown: 11.0s base · Mana Cost: 60 · Spell Vamp Ratio: 50%
Lancelot strikes in the target direction 3 times, each time dealing 220 (+120% Extra Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies hit (damage is reduced when multiple enemies are hit). He is untargetable during this process.
Enemies in the center of the area take all 3 hits and are slowed by 20% for 0.5s. The slow effect stacks.

Ultimate — Phantom Execution (Burst · Mobility)
Cooldown: 36.0s base · Mana Cost: 100
"I become one with the sword."
After a short delay, Lancelot performs an executioner's strike in the target direction, dealing 350 (+170% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies hit. He is invincible throughout the process.
| Level | 1 | 2 | 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cooldown | 36.0 | 32.0 | 28.0 |
| Skill Cost | 100 | 125 | 150 |
| Base Damage | 350 | 425 | 500 |
Combo framework (in-client mechanics only — no build advice here)
- Charge count: S1 (up to 2 charges via CD reset on Sword Mark) + S2 (3 hits count as 3 charges) + Ult = 6 charges possible in a full combo → Passive caps at 4 stacks (30% damage bonus).
- Untargetable vs. Invincible:
- S2 = untargetable (cannot be selected as a skill target, but AoE still hits)
- Ult = invincible (takes no damage at all)
- Sword Mark is the skill-reset engine. Without applying it on first Puncture, the CD is a full 14.0s (Lv.1) → second Puncture is gated until CD expires.
