How to play and combo preview

Written guide · based on the official ability texts

Yunara is a marksman whose critical strikes deal bonus magic damage. Cultivation of Spirit gives her attack speed and bonus on-hit damage and makes her attacks bounce onto nearby enemies, which makes her strong in team fights. Her Transcend improves her basic abilities and replaces some with more dangerous versions.

The team fight
Transcend One's Self R Cultivation of Spirit Q Arc of Judgment | Arc of Ruin W AA AA

When: A team fight starts and you are protected.

Enter Transcend to upgrade your abilities, then cast Cultivation of Spirit: attack speed, bonus on-hit damage and bounces on nearby enemies. Slow with the Transcend beam.

Harassment
Arc of Judgment | Arc of Ruin W AA AA AA AA

When: You want to slow and hit from range.

Arc of Judgment deals damage and slows; follow with basic attacks as long as the enemy stays in range.

Laning phase

Keep Kanmei's Steps to reposition or get out. Arc of Judgment slows at range: use it to chase or to keep an enemy at a good distance. Wait for your Transcend to engage fully: its upgraded versions change the nature of her abilities.
