Question: How to use Angela in Honor of Kings?

Answer:

Angela (also known as 安琪拉 in the Chinese version of 王者荣耀) is a mid-lane mage in Honor of Kings, specializing in burst magic damage, crowd control (stun), and area-of-effect (AOE) attacks. She excels at clearing waves quickly, harassing enemies from range, and setting up kills with her stun and ultimate. Her kit revolves around stacking a passive “burn” effect for increased movement speed and damage amplification, making her strong in poke, ganks, and teamfights.

Skills Overview

Skill Upgrade Order: 1 > 2 > 3 (max 1 first for poke/clear, then 2 for control; always grab Ult at 6/12).

Summoner Spell: Flash (mandatory for positioning Ult or dodging).

Angela scales with magic power, penetration, and cooldown. Prioritize wave clear early, then burst.

Slot Item Why?
Boots Boots of the Arcane Magic pen + mana for early poke/clear. Alt: Glowing Wand Boots for CDR if needed.
1st Core Scepter of Reverberation (Pain Mask/回响之杖) CDR, magic power, AOE explosion on skill hits—synergizes with Skill 1 spam.
2nd Savant’s Wrath (博学者之怒) Massive magic amp (+35% power after skills). Core for mid-game burst.
3rd Insatiable Tome (噬神之书) Lifesteal for sustain in fights.
4th Void Staff (虚无法杖) % Magic pen vs tanks/heavy MR builds.
5th Tome of Wisdom (贤者之书) Max magic power + HP for late-game nukes.
6th Flexible: Daybreak (辉月) for survival or Bloodweeper for more CDR/lifesteal.  

Full Build Order: Boots > Reverberation > Savant’s > Tome > Void > Wisdom. Sell boots late for Ice Pulse Staff if full damage.

Arcana (Runes/Mingwen):

Combos (Key to Success)

Pro Tip: Skill 2 is slow—bush ambush or predict. Never Ult without 2 landing first.

Playstyle & Tips

  1. Laning Phase (Early):
    • Clear waves fast with 1, poke with 1-1. Roam at lvl 4+ with jungler (2 stun sets up kills).
    • Goal: Hit lvl 4 first, pressure side lanes.
  2. Mid-Game (Ganks/Roams):
    • Follow jungler/assassin. 2 > 1 > 3 deletes carries. Bush squat for ambushes.
    • Objective control: Ult towers or objectives for safe poke.
  3. Late-Game (Teamfights):
    • Position rear: 2 to peel divers > 1 poke > 3 on clustered enemies.
    • Synergies: Pair with divers like Li Xin or Donghuang (your 2 stuns into their ults).
  4. Counters & Weaknesses:
    • Strong vs: Squishies, immobile mages.
    • Weak to: Burst assassins (e.g., those who dash your 2), heavy CC. Build defensive 6th item.
    • Ban: High-mobility divers if ahead.
  5. General Tips:
    • Stack passive = win trades.
    • Ward bushes—your 2 shines in vision denial.
    • Practice Ult prediction in custom mode. Winrate jumps 10-15% with good 2 lands.

Master these, and Angela carries from Gold to Master easily—simple kit, huge reward.
