Rek'Sai is a Diver that deals physical (AD) damage and brings airborne. Some of their lockdown (airborne) ignores tenacity, so you dodge it; you can't cleanse or Merc' through it. Below is Rek'Sai's highest-win-rate build from high-elo games; open the counter-build tool to tune it against your specific enemy team.
ABILITIES
PassiveFury of the Xer'Sai
Rek'Sai generates Fury by Attacking and hitting with basic Abilities. She consumes this Fury while Burrowed to restore health.
QQueen's Wrath / Prey Seeker
Rek'Sai's next 3 basic attacks deal bonus Physical Damage to nearby enemies. While Burrowed, Rek'Sai launches a burst of void-charged earth that damages and reveals enemies hit.
WBurrow / Un-burrow
Rek'Sai burrows into the ground, gaining new abilities and increased Move Speed. Her vision range is reduced and she cannot use basic attacks. While Burrowed, Rek'Sai may cast Unburrow to knock up and damage nearby enemies.
EFurious Bite / Tunnel
Rek'Sai bites her target, dealing physical damage, or bonus true damage if she has max Fury. While Burrowed, Rek'Sai creates a re-usable, long lasting tunnel. Enemies can destroy it by standing on top of either entrance.
RVoid Rush
Rek'Sai passively marks targets by damaging them. She can activate this ability to become briefly untargetable and lunge at a marked target for heavy damage based on their maximum health.
COMBAT PROFILE
PLAYING ASRek'Sai
- Keeping tunnels spread out across the map will ensure you have choices when you want to cast Void Rush.
- Cast Burrow before travelling around the map to take advantage of the increased Move Speed and the safety provided by Tremor Sense.
- Tremor Sense can warn you of enemies closing in, and is particularly useful when entering enemy territory.
PLAYING AGAINSTRek'Sai
- If you see one of Rek'Sai's tunnels, briefly stand on one of the entrances to destroy it.
- Rek'Sai's Furious Bite gains damage as she builds Fury. Be very careful around her when her Fury is full.
- When Rek'Sai is near, she can see the position of you and your allies, but only if you're moving.
