The Wuxiang Divine Artifact has greatly benefited players, with four War Gods achieving a win rate exceeding 50%. Highly recommended for climbing the ranks in Season 44. (II)

The Boundless Artifact is a savior for physical attack heroes, making up for their attribute deficiencies. A single piece of equipment can instantly boost their strength. With the concept of trading two for one, there's no need to buy two pieces of equipment to stack them all, freeing up space to buy defensive gear. This increases the margin for error. Among the four victories, the jungler is Zhao Yun, the marksman is Galo, and another marksman is not to be outdone, with a win rate closely following.

Hou Yi: Win rate surpasses 53%

High-level matches emphasize finesse, a trade-off between self-preservation and offense. Occasionally sacrificing oneself can turn one into a mere utility character. Therefore, top players tend to favor marksmen with high mobility and crowd control, aiming for prolonged battles. Without survival, how can one launch attacks? Ranked matches are straightforward and brutal, all about maximizing critical strike rate. Hou Yi's pick rate slightly decreased in Season 44, but with 24.3% critical strike chance, he remained a top pick, supposedly due to the nerf to the orb-based build. As a result, players returned to the critical strike build, equipping the Elephantless Artifact, becoming unstoppable. Hou Yi's adaptability is reflected in his item build strategy. Unlike other marksmen who are fixed, he doesn't rely on ranged basic attacks. Against strong team compositions, he plays a semi-tank build; with limited farming space, he switches to an orb-based build; if he prefers to initiate with his ultimate, he chooses a critical strike build, initially buying Boots of Swiftness for a transitional period, focusing on farming, and saving his ultimate for survivability—it all depends on the player's playstyle.

To synergize with the Wuxiang Divine Artifact, his build is almost identical to that of Galo: Shadow Blade, Infinity Blade, and Dawnbreaker. It's best to abandon the Ghostly Blade. Attack speed and movement speed are Hou Yi's core strengths. A pro player once considered abandoning Shadow Blade and replacing it with the Peerless Rune, but after several ranked matches, they found the physical attack to be extremely low, resulting in unstable early-game damage. The final conclusion was to replace the Ghostly Blade with the Wuxiang Divine Artifact. In the final moments, during large-scale team fights, since Hou Yi lacks mobility, he should buy defensive items to survive.

Li Xin: Win rate has exceeded 53%.

After news of the nerf to Dark Xin spread, it caused dissatisfaction among players. Fortunately, Wuxiang Artifacts kept up with the trend. Whether it is Light Xin or Dark Xin, the win rate has continued to rise, reaching 53.5%, coupled with a 16.6% pick rate, which shows how popular it is. Although the tower-destroying damage was reduced, it was compensated by the fighting damage. No matter how much criticism there is from the outside world, the data proves that the strength has not fallen but increased, which makes all the haters look bad.
