In Honor of Kings, how to win a headwind game is a challenge for every player. However, if you can make reasonable use of the meaty Xia Houdun, you can find a breakthrough even in a disadvantageous game. This article will give you a detailed analysis of Xiahou Dun’s playing style, allowing you to easily deal with various situations in the game.
1. A hero’s characteristics determine his position in the confrontation path
As a hero in Honor of Kings who can fight and carry, Xiahou Dun has a very high fault tolerance rate. As long as you have your ultimate move in hand, you can easily escape even if you are caught. In team battles, his ability to withstand injuries is unrivaled. In the battle against the lane, Xiahou Dun and Mi Yue were on par, but their role in team battles was more advantageous than that of Lao Fuzi.
2. The revision of Red Lotus Cloak brings more possibilities to Xiahou Dun
The Red Lotus Cloak is one of the popular equipment for the tank profession, but for Xiahou Dun, who is all-meat style, its importance is self-evident. The revised Red Lotus Cloak adds a serious injury effect, reducing the opponent's healing effect by 35%. This means that when facing heroes with high blood-stealing and high damage, Xiahou Dun's all-tank outfit will no longer be stressful.
3. Outfit selection and team-fighting ideas
In terms of equipment, Xiahou Dun should focus on meat equipment. Boots of Resistance, Red Lotus Cloak, Cold Storm, or Ominous Omen can all provide him with adequate defense. Grasp of the Ice Scar, Guardian of the Night, and Fury of the Blood Demon can provide additional defense and attack bonuses at critical moments. If there are true damage heroes like Lu Bu or Dian Wei, Blood Demon's Wrath can be replaced by Pure Sky.
In terms of teamfighting ideas, Xiahou Dun's ultimate move has a very short cooldown time, so he is very suitable for attracting firepower first. But it should be noted that when teammates are not in position, you must wait for them. It is best to go when the jungler has already circled back. After attracting firepower, there will be no pressure for the jungler to enter the field.
4. Ability to cooperate with other heroes
Sun Bin is one of Xiahou Dun's most ideal partners. Sun Bin's skills can be accelerated and can restore a wave of blood after two seconds. This made Xiahou Dun, who was already difficult to kill, even more powerful.
In addition, during team battles, Xiahou Dun can first attract the enemy's attention, and then rely on his own recovery skills to compete with the opposing hero. In this case, if a hero like Mi Yue is responsible for cutting into the enemy's back row from the side or a high-damage hero like Lao Fuzi follows up to harvest the endgame, the team's chances of winning can be further improved.
5. Respond flexibly to situations
In a headwind situation, Xiahou Dun, who is in a meat suit, needs to know how to adapt to changes. For example, when the enemy's back-row heroes are relatively underdeveloped, you can give priority to targeting their crispy skin; when the enemy's back-row heroes are relatively strong, you need to protect your friendly forces to ensure that your teammates can develop smoothly and find them. Opportunity to counterattack.
To sum up, the meat-suited Xiahou Dun is a hero with high fault tolerance, capable of fighting and carrying, and has high practicality in Honor of Kings. Through reasonable equipment selection and team-fighting ideas, as well as the ability to cooperate with other heroes, the meaty Xiahou Dun will play an immeasurable role in the headwind situation.
