I feel like Yao is a good counter against him since he could bait Loong's ult by pretending to dive him and then uses ult to disengage and wait out the ult's flight duration. Outhealing him might also be an option since outside of the water dragon attacks (ending combo with Skill 2), he doesn't really regen that much even with 2 water attributes on him because of his low atk spd. "Forcing" him to use the water dragon attack over and over again also means that it'll lower his overall dmg since he won't use the high-dmg fire dragon attack after every skill combos
True, should had been his design in the first place, now even non Aphelions mains know his red white(Severum / crescendum) is his strongest phase/combo, or every one needs to atleast not underestimate Aphelios when he has red on 2nd slot. But even then, no one plays Aphelios cause he is boring, and only a tool for esports. Desginers can't always use the "skill" alibi to be shielded from bad design philosophy, When there are fun skill expressions like Alistar combo, AK, AWP, etc
well he doesn't need lifesteal you can always use your ulti to disengage from your aggro use a 2 attribute of water to have a burst of healing you need to utilize his attributes properly
How much is he on the CN server? I read a comment saying you can only buy him using real money on the CN server, but on the global server, you can buy it with starstones and tokens.
Bruh I have clap many enemies and won matches with him until now but I really have a hard time when enemy pick Hou yi.Can u suggest a counter build for him?
He only has one reliable cc, his wind sword. Outside that he provides no laning utility since he can't heal, tank or shield his teammates. And his ult which is also a form of control is mainly for repositioning himself. But more importantly, he has trouble dealing with assassins himself since he's really squishy, so how is he supposed to help his laning partner deal with ganks?
Me seeing the character in first place : oh another swordman ! Maybe a fighter or an assassin...or a close range mage. The video : it a marksman ! Me : Alright alright... WHAT THE F...
@@kyouitv yeah true the enemy just try to play him at rank in first time he really good but we had arli so but she at first had hard time but later no because clashliner attacking him first
I also brought loong It's looks like i am so noob 😅 . Literally 4 kills with 4 death. I can't play this guy properly. It's pretty much hard to master his skills
I thought we should buy this hero with token but nah😂😂Thanks for developer,looks like they keep promise for "FAIR TO PLAY,FAIR TO WIN". Well at least for now
@@rabbitmask_my enemy pick him as mid line but we win another time the enemy pick him as marksman our arli have little bad time but she did well we win his team was angry because we use sun ce with Angela with ult and stuns... We win
@@kyouitv True but if you only arrive when they're already gathering or either fighting like ping pong, hit and return you can easily engage or either make a set to make them gather and I usually stack my air before I engage.
@@Jimme794 i think he wasn't comparing, instead he was trying to find an alternative hero from another game to understand loong properly (because of the passive)
