Allain's Chinese name is 亚连.
Quick summary
Allain is a mid-tier Clash Lane Fighter who wants to close distance and snowball off picks. Public guides recommend a build starting with Boots of Fortitude and Execute.
When to pick Allain, when to avoid them, and how to adapt your build.
Allain is a balanced Clash Lane Fighter who wants to pick off isolated heroes once mobility is online. Public guide data shows a build centered on Boots of Fortitude, Sparkforged Dagger, Blazing Cape, paired with Execute, used to soak pressure in lane and threaten side objectives. Pick him when the draft lets Allain reach the targets his kit is designed to threaten; avoid when the enemy chains crowd control that stops the engage before damage lands.
Core gap-close fighter path
Allain's official camp build supports his Gap-Close identity with early durability and sticking power. It opens with Boots of Fortitude (reduces physical damage) and Sparkforged Dagger (chain-lightning basic attacks), then adds Blazing Cape to burn nearby enemies while he stays on top of a target. Frigid Charge brings group crowd control, and Dragon's Rage scales his basic-attack damage so his dives convert into kills rather than trades.
Defensive finishers & utility
Blood Rage (temporary shield) helps Allain survive the dive, while Boots of Resistance is the standard swap to shorten crowd control against heavy lockdown comps. Destiny (negates fatal damage) is the late-game insurance item for committing into teamfights. The recommended arcana lean into a durable bruiser (Inheritance, Fate, Hunt, Stealth, Fortify, Void), and Execute is the battle spell of choice for securing kills after a gap-close.
Versus crowd control
Reliable hard control stops Allain's engage before the combo lands. Bait the most threatening control skill before committing Death at Sunset, and wait for ally engage to absorb peel.
Role positioning
Allain is a Clash Lane pick whose value depends on a durable front-line presence with steady wave control. Stick to the role plan rather than forcing fights his kit is not designed to win.
Synergies
Public synergy data lists Dolia, Sun Bin, and Liu Bang as strong partners for Allain. Plan engages around Dolia's setup window, then second-engage with Death at Sunset.
Forgotten Blade
“I am the sheath that protects the blade and not the edge that takes lives.”
Chilling dual swords. An innocent spirit. These two may seem in conflict, but somehow they exist in perfect harmony in Allain. Bereft of his memories, he was forced to wander the streets of Navenia. While blessed with remarkable swordsmanship, he was cheated time and time again due to his innocent nature. To survive, he joined the Mercenary Guild. Now, he works hard to survive, his short-term goal being to fill his belly, and his long-term goal being to save up enough for a boat ticket home.

Basic Attacks and skills grant Fury, which increases his Physical and Magical Pierce and grants damage reduction. At max Fury, he recovers Health, and the lower his Health, the more he recovers.
Based on how many stacks of mark he has, Allain deals damage multiple times in the target direction and launches enemies. He gains marks by hitting enemies with Basic Attacks and Ultimate.
Dashes in the target direction, damaging and slowing enemies. He gains Movement Speed and his next 3 Basic Attacks gain increased Attack Speed.
Allain leaps toward the targeted enemy hero and becomes untargetable. After a short delay, he lands and deals area damage. For every enemy hero hit, he gains marks and Fury.

Allain's win condition runs through Death at Sunset (leaps toward the targeted enemy hero and becomes untargetable). Trade in short bursts and disengage before the enemy can collapse on you.
Meteor Kill base and true damage increased
Skill 1: Meteor Kill base damage increased from 95 (+19 per skill level) (+38% Physical Attack) to 110 (+22 per skill level) (+38% Physical Attack). True damage increased from 95 (+19 per skill level) (+38% Physical Attack) to 110 (+22 per skill level) (+38% Physical Attack). Source: 2026/04/29 international update screenshot.
Increased skill damage
Adjusted Skill Damage
Increased Basic Attack interval and reduced Ultimate's shield effect.
Allain's continuous Basic Attack and counterattack capabilities with his Ultimate have made him a strong contender in both the Clash Lane and team fights. We are slightly nerfing him to allow other heroes to better compete against him.
