Best Marja Build, Arcana & Guide for 2026

Before level 4, Marja is fairly weak compared to other heroes, so focus on clearing minions fast and holding your lane.

Avoid pushing too far, since it’s hard to escape a gank; instead, hold a backward position and take advantage of Skill 2’s Soul-Devouring Worm damage drain to gain an edge whenever trading skills with the enemy.

By the mid game, Marja is much stronger once she has her ultimate, so actively rotate to join small skirmishes as well as coordinating with allies to push turrets and attack major objectives.

Remember this hero is strong when grinding it out with her opponent but has no pick tool, so avoid ganking alone — instead, try to call your allies to organize fights.

By the late game, Marja becomes extremely annoying with Skill 3’s Vile Spirit crowd-control cleanse, untargetability, and her endless sustain.

Always move with your team to be ready for full team fights; in a fight, stay outside and poke the enemy while waiting for an opportunity.

When you see a chance to take down the enemy’s core damage dealer, or if you get hard crowd-controlled, immediately activate your ultimate to dive in and burst the enemy marksman.

Don’t chase an enemy hero who runs too far from the fight — instead, grind it out with the targets who stay, which suits Marja better.
