Current patch decision guide
When to pick Wuyan, when to avoid them, and how to adapt your build.
Wuyan is a struggling Clash Lane Fighter who wants to lock down team fights with crowd control. Public guide data shows a build centered on Relentless Blade, Boots of Resistance, Rapacious Bite, paired with Smite, used to soak pressure in lane and threaten side objectives. Pick her when the draft lets Wuyan reach the targets her kit is designed to threaten; avoid when the enemy chains crowd control that stops the engage before damage lands.
Pick Wuyan when
- The enemy team has multiple high-mobility threats that need to be locked down before they reach your backline
- Your draft can capitalize on early picks and snowball lane leads
- The enemy draft includes Kongming, Lady Zhen, and Liang, who appear in counter data as matchups Wuyan can pressure.
Avoid Wuyan when
- Your team lacks the follow-up damage to convert your control windows into kills
- Enemy peel is strong and Wuyan cannot reach the backline without dying first
- A stronger pick in the same role is open and the matchup does not specifically reward Wuyan's Crowd Control.

Build decisions
Default clash lane path
Public build references for Wuyan recommend Relentless Blade, Boots of Resistance, Rapacious Bite, Axe of Torment, Dragon's Rage, and Blazing Cape, with Mutation, Stealth, and Eagle Eye arcana. Run Smite as the battle spell. Use this as the baseline fighter plan before adapting to the enemy draft.
Situational item pivots
Spare options listed in build data include Pure Sky. Treat these as situational swaps when the default path is not enough — for example, swapping in defensive items against burst comps or penetration items against stacked armor.
Matchup logic
Versus mobility
Dashes and immunity skills bypass Wuyan's control. Force the enemy mobility before committing Hurricane Hammer, and aim control on stationary targets like channeling carries.
Role positioning
Wuyan 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 her kit is not designed to win.
Synergies
Public synergy data lists Dolia, Dyadia, and Kui as strong partners for Wuyan. Plan engages around Dolia's setup window, then second-engage with Hurricane Hammer.
Common mistakes
- Throwing Shock and Awe on the front-line tank instead of saving it for backline carries.
- Diving while enemy hard control is still up, which directly counters Wuyan's engage.
- Engaging without checking enemy summoner-spell cooldowns, which often decide whether Wuyan's commit reaches the target alive.
- Forcing solo engages instead of waiting for ally commit — Wuyan's value compounds when the team follows up on engages.
Background
Sledgehammer
“Name a price for your troubles!”
As an orphaned hybrid, Wuyan survived the Southlands because she knew that power and money were the only ways out. Savage and determined, she stuck to her way of doing things even at Jixia Academy. From stealing tomes to working as a mercenary, no one could predict what her next wild step would be. Only when she shattered the chains that bound the feralis with her hammer did it finally dawn on people that this formidable warrior had become an unstoppable force.

"Currently, Wuyan's ability to hit the enemy with the center of her Skill 2 attack plays a huge part in her overall performance, so we've made adjustments to help her perform more consistently across different situations. At the same time, we've made adjustments to her skills' stat bonuses to give players more options in terms of her equipment."
