Although its wind-up time is fairly long, and it’s predictable because of it, if you can successfully land Shadowbolt, you can instantly lop off a large amount of health. Shadowbolt (RMB) - One of the strongest ranged abilities in the game, Shadowbolt has a ridiculous range. Ideally, you want to always engage with a charged Defiled Blade for maximum impact, especially when coupled with Claw of the Wicked > Defiled Blade > Shadowbolt/Sinister Strike. The bonus damage of a charged Defiled Blade, combined with its burst of healing (and subsequent heals from continued attacks) allows Ruh Kaan to burst, and survive all at the same time. Once the blade is charged, it allows Ruh Kaan to inflict Curse, a debuff that allows him to heal himself every time he strikes the afflicted Champion. Reliant on Sinister Strike to evade and escape reliablyĭefiled Blade (LMB) - Ruh Kaan’s basic attack acts similarly to Sirius’, in the sense that it has a “charge”.

His Ultimate is fantastic if you can pull an opponent Requires solid aim to land Shadowbolt and Claw of the Wicked His ability to Silence through Battlerites is amazing Unsurprisingly, due to the fact Ruh Kaan is heavily reliant on getting enemy Champions close to him, he can be poked down by mobile ranged opponents such as Ezmo. Failure to land Shadowbolt, or miss-timing of his Sinister Strike can leave him particularly vulnerable as his only form of defence is then Nether Void (which requires Focus) or a weapon charge to inflict curse. If he combines this self-sustain with his pull (Claw of the Wicked) and his shield (Consume) he can comfortably keep an opponent next to him, while ensuring Curse is maintained.Īlthough Ruh Kaan is powerful, he still needs a skilled handler. While that doesn’t sound a lot, it’s more than enough to mitigate incoming damage against most melee Champions. His life-steal every time he Curses an enemy ensures that as long as he’s in melee range, he can obtain at least 30 health across 3 seconds. What makes Ruh Kaan incredibly powerful is the fact there are few, if any Champions, that can “trade” with him. He wields his dark powers to remove those who would stand in his way, taking great pleasure in consuming their souls. Pursuing the trespasser led him to the Arenas where he is still tracking his quarry.

Ruh Kaan was awoken when a grave robber desecrated the sacred crypts of Ark'dun. Not only does he have incredible self-sustain when he Curses an opponent, but he also has a kit that offers exceptional ranged poke, a valuable i-frame in Sinister Strike and some mobility thanks to Nether Void. Ruh Kaan is unquestionably one of the strongest Champions in Battlerite.
