It's time to put aside prejudice. Mi Yue's revamped version redeems her former glory, transforming her from a lane bully into a team fight mage.


How well do you know Mi Yue? As we all know, everyone's impression of her is that of a warrior-type mage, a regular in the top lane, who can choose between full damage or semi-tank builds. The reason she counters opponents in the early game is that most warriors and tanks have low magic defense in the early game, making them not as strong as Mi Yue in a stand-up fight. After linking up, her passive bats chase and bite you, slowing you down while healing you. Just when you want to counterattack, she has her ultimate and enters an invincible state, transforming into a dark energy ball that continues to move, and her small skills and passive will not be interrupted. She will deal damage after landing, making her a real headache in one-on-one fights.

The online reaction to adjustments to veteran heroes is always polarized. Some are very much looking forward to their return and are preparing to explore new ways to play them, deviating from the original path. After all, Mi Yue has her weaknesses: she is good at solo lane pushing, is often absent in team fights, and has low damage mitigation. Logically, picking a lone wolf is equivalent to a 4v5 game, and unless you frequently succeed in picking off isolated enemies, her role is irrelevant.

Feelings about hero upgrades are mixed; some veteran players don't like it.

On the other hand, Summoners who have been familiar with her for many years are complacent and lazy to readjust. They only play a couple of games before quickly dismissing her strength, deeming the rework a failure, the hero upgrade unplayable, and then posting on social media to publicly criticize her, disrupting the original thought process and causing annoyance. Even if there are better solutions, those who have already listed her as their main have no intention of adjusting the core area. Their worst-case scenario is to abandon her altogether, just like Nuwa in the past. It took a while to figure out the Tetris gameplay. Everyone is used to the delayed explosion of the matrix space, and the block synthesis position is difficult to master. You store three, combine them with the first skill to knock back, and then turn them into four to form a thick wall.

Nuwa herself can travel through it, with an added speed boost, making her a life-saving artifact. Her road-blocking ability is stronger than before, and her teleportation speed is faster. The only thing that remains unchanged is her ultimate skill. After the upgrade, she received two heavyweight skins. The planners promoted her vigorously, and undeniably, she is exclusive to high-level games. Her appearance has gained fans across all skill levels. Her character design is approachable, but her operation is always highly dependent on awareness and has a high difficulty level. Later, she returned to her original form, but she is still a favorite of top players. However, she is not afraid of changes in the world and will only become more and more loved. Her appearance rate in KPL events once reached a peak of 80%.
