Argus MLBB Mechanics and Counters
Argus' main strength lies in his ultimate skill which makes it difficult for the fighter to be picked off. So the best counter is to neutralize his sustain capacity.
Taking that into consideration, VCGamers would recommend heroes, the best items and spells to counter the fighter, along with tips on how to use them:
Heroes
- Since Argus relies heavily on his ultimate momentum, the best option is to prevent/hinder him from using his ultimate by using heavy crowd control (CC): Tigreal, Atlas, Kalea, Franco, Barats, Belerick, Aurora, Khufra, Lolita, Gatot, etc.
- Argus' Ultimate makes him hard to take down, but it doesn't mean he can't be targeted. So, you can also fight "fire with fire": compete with heroes with the same sustain: Freya, Lukas, Alpha, Badang, Hilda, Lapu-Lapu, Yu Zhong, Cici, Thamuz, etc.
Items
- Dominance Ice: Argus' build relies heavily on life steal and attack speed to get the most out of it. So just reduce those two attributes with this item;
- Winter Truncheon/Wind of Nature: Argus's ult requires him to deal damage to opponents, so use the active skills of these two items to neutralize it;
- Immortality: In hopes of giving extra time for teammates to come to your aid, this item can give you a second chance against Argus.
Spells
- Vengeance: Argus will “rain” his target with damage per second (DPS). For fighters who have a “body”, this spell is suitable for dampening incoming DPS;
- Flicker: This spell is suitable for escaping for thin hero line-ups that are locked by Argus.
Build Argus MLBB
After a complete discussion of Argus mechanics and counters ML above, now we move on to the next discussion, namely the complete build (spell, emblem, and items) for the hero.
Make sure you listen carefully and thoroughly so you can stay sustainable when facing the counters above! Here are the complete build details:
Spells
Since Argus' mechanics rely heavily on attack speed, there is no other spell that is more suitable than Inspire. This will drastically increase that attribute!
Emblems and talents
For emblem choices, Argus is suited to using the Assassin emblem which will increase his capacity as a damager in the early and mid game phases – so he can snowball.
The emblem will be optimal if you accompany it with the right talent build. Therefore VCGamers recommends the following combination to maximize its performance:
- General Talent 1 – “Fatal”: Because Argus also relies on critical attributes, this talent is suitable for him to use;
- General Talent 2 – “Master Assassin”: To increase the fighter’s by one and ganking capacity;
- Main Talent – “War Cry”: Suitable for Argus who relies on attack speed.
Argus MLBB Item Recommendations
As for the build item, the theme of the VCGamers recommendation this time focuses on three attributes, namely attack speed, critical, and increasing basic attacks. Here are the details:
- (Slot 1) Swift Boots: These shoes, which are generally purchased by marksmen, are actually suitable for Argus who needs an increase in attack speed;
- (Slot 2) Corrosion Scythe: Because Argus relies heavily on basic attacks, this item can boost the fighter's attack speed as well as his attack speed;
- (Slot 3) Windtalker: This item can increase attack and movement speed, as well as increase critical as well;
- (Slot 4) Haas' Claw: So that Argus still has life steal capacity without always relying on his ultimate alone;
- (Slot 5) Berserker Fury: The fighter's main damage and critical item, so that his late game damage is even more painful;
- (Slot 6) Blade of Despair: To enhance the damage output that Argus provides.
The build above can maximize Argus' damage, especially when fighting a thin hero line-up. This is suitable for those who like to dive-in behind the opposing team's formation: targeting the damagers.
But when you meet a sustain line-up, there is a more fitting alternative. Slot 3 can be filled with Sea Halberd or Demon Hunter Sword to neutralize the heal/shield/tanky attribute.
As for the alternative Slot 6, you can buy Immortality: it gives you a wider opportunity when the team “forces” you to be in front to become an additional “body”.
