How to Combo Mina

Basic Mina combo:

  1. Use Skill 2 Death Scythe to pull the enemy in close.
  2. Activate Skill 3 Dark Dominion to hypnotize the target.
  3. Swing Skill 1 Whirling Scythe combined with continuous basic attacks to burst them down.

While comboing, combine it with Flicker to catch the enemy off guard for more precision.

How to Use Mina's Skills Effectively

Passive Sweet Revenge :

  • Remember that the more you basic attack or get basic attacked, the faster your movement speed becomes — take advantage of this to chase or escape better.
  • Grind it out with the enemy for as long as possible to keep refreshing and empowering Skill 1 Whirling Scythe for true damage and double healing.

Skill 1 Whirling Scythe :

  • Move into the middle of the enemy formation to land this skill on multiple targets at once, maximizing damage and healing.
  • Remember to basic attack continuously to refresh Skill 1 via passive Sweet Revenge

Skill 2 Death Scythe :

  • Use this skill to pull the enemy in, then cast Skill 3 Dark Dominion for a more precise crowd control.
  • Pull a jungle monster away while the enemy is farming it to set them back.
  • Pull the enemy across terrain to make escape nearly impossible for them.

Skill 3 Dark Dominion :

  • Use this skill for hard crowd control on the enemy’s core damage dealer or mobile heroes so your allies can unload damage.
  • Activating Skill 3 helps passive Sweet Revenge stack faster.

How to Play Mina in the Early Game

In the early game, rush to mid to hide, then suddenly pull the enemy in, or pull a jungle monster away while the enemy is farming it to set them back.

Then return to lane to help your marksman farm minions and hold the lane; during this, you can use Skill 2 Death Scythe to group minions together, helping your AD farm faster.

How to Play Mina in the Mid Game

By the mid game, focus on using Skill 3 Dark Dominion well to pick off enemies.

Whenever your ultimate is about to come off cooldown, rotate to gank enemy heroes pushing up, hide and time your pull and hypnosis for your allies to burst them down.

In a fight, take advantage of Mina ‘s durability and high movement speed to stick to high-damage enemy heroes, keeping them from freely attacking your allies.

How to Play Mina in the Late Game

By the late game, always move with your allies to be ready for full team fights; Mina ‘s job is to protect your marksman and find a way to crowd-control the enemy’s core damage dealer.

In a fight, hold a forward position as a shield for your allies, then depending on the situation, combo Skill 2 Death Scythe and Skill 3 Dark Dominion to crowd-control an enemy assassin trying to close in on your core damage dealer, or dive in to hypnotize the enemy’s core damage dealer so your allies can finish them off.
