Teleportation is a new art in the Rift, a battle of support efficiency. Who is more suitable for you, Yu the Great or Liu Bang?

With the start of the new season, the new hero Yu the Great is one of the focal points. But have players noticed a new trend emerging? That is the teleportation skill. Initially, it is a magic circle in the top lane. Its purpose is to facilitate warrior support, break away from the lone wolf playstyle, and not be restricted to staying in place to lane. When appropriate, it can teleport to the bottom lane to fight team fights or help the mid lane farm, increasing support efficiency.

Then came the Teleport Summoner Spell, a powerful tool for split-pushing heroes and tower-pushing gods. Characters like Liu Chan and Milady, with it, could push towers at an absurdly fast speed. If you missed your turn and forgot to defend the minion wave, you could easily lose one or two towers in quick succession. One strategy for this was to distract heroes during team fights or to use it for backdoor tactics. This teleportation strategy gradually integrated into warrior playstyles. With a side lane magic circle and the skill, two teleports could allow you to clear all three lanes, resulting in a massive increase in farming speed. However, be careful not to overextend yourself; you're likely to get flamed by your teammates, leading to resentment and arguments that could ultimately result in a loss.

There are simply too many things to consider. Undeniably, the legend has become a new art form in the Rift and a new favorite on the battlefield, simply because it is too practical. Returning to and from the starting point to recover health is time-consuming and laborious. With the addition of teleportation, one can fly directly there, freely choose lanes, and not rely on the summoning of the bridge vortex gate. Moreover, having been a lone wolf for too long, it is inevitable that one will not trust teammates. With years of accumulated combat experience, the teleportation gate is often released at the wrong time and in the wrong position. The whole team lacks synergy, and some ignore the skill summoning and continue to push lanes. When there are not enough people in team fights, it is a disguised way of feeding kills.

Teleportation skill mechanism

Da Qiao's skill mechanics have shown us that teleportation is a high-level tactic, unsuitable for the more skeptical lower and mid-ranked players. On the surface, it seems insignificant—what good can teleportation possibly do? However, it relies heavily on teamwork. Several heroes in the game possess teleportation abilities: Nezha and Liu Bang can select a target to fly to; Yu the Great's design involves a device that places a cauldron, allowing teammates to stand on it and teleport to another cauldron location, like a time machine in a movie. Its core effect isn't immediately apparent; the visible advantages are built up gradually over time. Lower and mid-ranked players prioritize tangible gameplay. This kind of unpredictable effect, with low healing and no crowd control, leads to elimination.
