The new overlord, Lecio, ranks first in the overall hero damage output list, yet his pick rate is less than 5%?

In the King of Glory arena, the emphasis is often placed on choice over effort. This is why the strength of heroes is a never-ending discussion. Versions change constantly, heroes upgrade and evolve, new equipment appears, and even minor adjustments can trigger a domino effect. Therefore, season updates and new skin sales all cause data fluctuations, and the rankings are refreshed again. Information is updated daily. The question is, can you keep up?

Many popular marksman picks are stuck in either static shooting or mobility-based shooting. Hou Yi and Galo are prime examples of the former, while Marco Polo and Gongsun Li represent the latter. The reality is that most players are stuck in the same place. These popular heroes have top-tier skins, but would you really switch to another hero to climb the ranks after buying them? Unless you prioritize average performance and star gain speed, you won't care who dominates the development lane. Those who keep up with the "trend" know Sun Quan is number one. However, a recent buff to a veteran hero is poised to replace this newcomer. Ranking third in overall hero damage output and nearly number one among all marksmen, the latest news is that Lecio is on the rise.

Ten minutes later, prepare to engage.

Data shows that his pick rate is 4.5% and his win rate is 54.2%, indicating a tendency to be an unpopular pick. However, his strength should not be underestimated. He is a good horse, but he has not yet met the right person to appreciate him. Sun Quan is easy to understand, and experts have made detailed analyses and provided strategies online regarding his development and power spike. Lecio has received moderate discussion. He received a new skin in the international server, but it seems that the Chinese server does not intend to promote him. Perhaps it is because he is weak in the early game and users cannot find him satisfying, so they have given up on him.

Lecio is a well-rounded character with stealth, wall-jumping, mobility, headshot lock, and area-of-effect damage. He's an assault marksman who can leap into the air with two moves, making him untouchable. His advantage lies in his 100% damage output. Against tanky teams, his passive skill comes in handy, making him better than mindlessly stacking critical hit rate. Don't think that his strong basic attack and ultimate are the core of his damage output; his essence lies in his second skill, stealth, which grants him kiting ability. He can use invisible terrain to leap over walls, launch projectiles from a distance, and generate smoke to prevent opponents from headshotting him unless it's a targeted attack. His second and third combos, which launch opponents into the air for a significant amount of time, are not very useful and can be ignored.

The gameplay is very simple: play cautiously and farm before level four; don't get overconfident after unlocking your ultimate; once you have Shadow Blade and Infinity Edge, congratulations, you've earned a spot in team fights. A slow-starting but powerful marksman; the first ten minutes may be frustrating, but you'll take over the game in the late game.
