How to Combo Butterfly

How to Play Butterfly in the Early Game

At the start of the match, check which side of the map has the easiest enemy to gank, and finish your jungle route on that side — for example, if the enemy marksman has no escape skill, start your jungle route in the Abyssal Lane and finish near the Dragon Lane, so by the time Butterfly Butterfly reaches level 4, you can gank the enemy marksman.

At this stage, Butterfly Butterfly already has decent damage, so if there’s an opening, secure major objectives early to gain an advantage.

How to Play Butterfly in the Mid Game

In this phase, Butterfly Butterfly ‘s damage has become quite big, and since the enemy’s core damage dealers are usually still weak, keep rotating to gank continuously, playing aggressively and targeting squishy heroes to set up repeated Skill 3 Backstab Backstab combos.

You can also split push and secure major objectives when the opportunity arises, thanks to your fast and powerful damage kit.

How to Play Butterfly in the Late Game

By the late game, Butterfly Butterfly still has huge damage, but the enemy’s core damage dealers usually already have some life-saving items like Arctic Orb Arctic Orb or Blade of Eternity Blade of Eternity …, so you need to pick your moments carefully instead of playing as aggressively as in the mid game.

A good strategy is to split push and force the enemy to split their formation to defend, so you can more easily pick off stragglers. If you have to join a full team fight, wait for a good opportunity to circle around and take down the enemy’s core damage dealer as fast as possible.
