Counters & Synergies

Countered By

DonghuangDonghuang's Skill 3 suppresses for 2s, cutting off Allain's attack chain and the Fury he builds from it. Both sides share damage taken during the suppression, so Allain bleeds while his own team focuses Donghuang. Dark Impact's third orb adds a 1s stun.

Best Synergy

LamLam's Skill 3 drags enemies to where his dagger landed. Allain's Death at Sunset rewards exactly that clustering, dealing up to 100% more damage the closer the targets are. Lam's passive adds true damage to anyone under 30% Health, so fewer escape the follow-up.

YariaYaria's Skill 3 attaches to Allain with a shield scaled by 8% of his extra Health, which suits a bruiser build. She cannot be targeted while attached, so she rides through his Moonlight Flash dashes. Her Skill 2 auto-fires at the 3 closest enemies during the brawl.

Countered-by and synergy picks are this site's own reading, based on each hero's kit. What the official app publishes is how often heroes are picked together (see "Frequently Paired With" below); it does not publish any rating of how well they match up.

EnhanceDamage ReductionDamage

Allain's Basic Attack speed is very high. For each attack, he strikes once with each of his dual swords Crimson Shadow and Spirit Guardian, dealing 75 (22 + 30% physical attack) magical damage and 75 (22 + 30% physical attack) physical damage. Every first Basic Attack lets him dash to the target. Every third Basic Attack, he swings both swords at the same time, dealing 115 (36 + 45% physical attack) true damage and then entering a longer Basic Attack cooldown. When his Basic Attacks and skills hit enemy heroes, he gains Fury, increasing his Physical and Magical Pierce by up to 40% and damage reduction by up to 20%. Upon reaching max Fury, he recovers 168 (80 + 50% physical attack) Health, with a cooldown of 8s.
The lower his current Health, the more Health he recovers, for up to 3 times the base recovery.
His Physical Lifesteal takes 75% effect and applies to magical and true damage. His Basic Attacks only carry 60% of on-hit effects.

ImmunityDamageShield

Allain selects a target hero and leaps into the air for 1.5s, during which he can move and is untargetable. He then smashes into the ground, dealing 254 (175 + 45% physical attack) physical damage and 254 (175 + 45% physical attack) magical damage to enemy heroes. The closer the heroes are to him, the more damage they take, for up to 100% extra damage. He gains marks and Fury for every enemy hero hit.
This skill produces different effects depending on whether the targeted hero is an enemy or a teammate. When he lands, he grants himself or the targeted teammate a shield that negates 627 (450 + 100% physical attack) damage. For every extra enemy hero hit, the shield's strength is increased by 1/3.

Strategy Guide

Playstyle

A swordsman who deals physical, magical, and true damage all at once — there is no right defense against him. Knock-up chains flow into an untargetable ultimate that resets the exchange.

Best for: Players who like an all-rounder that resists counter-building, with a vanishing act to punctuate every combo.

Recommended Combos

Three-Mark Skill 1

Basic Attack ×3 (build marks) → Skill 1 (fire it at 3 marks)

Marks come from his Basic Attacks and from Skill 3 hits. One mark already adds follow-up strikes, but three widens the launch range, adds two true-damage strikes, and grants crowd control immunity on top. He can even walk slowly through those strikes, so small interrupts do not break them. Fired bare, Skill 1 is a 0.75s launch and nothing more.

Dash-Fed All-In

Skill 2 (dash, next 3 Basic Attacks speed up) → Basic Attack ×3 (marks) → Skill 1 (3 marks) → Skill 3 (dive on a target hero)

Skill 2 stocks a charge every 10s and holds two of them. The three sped-up swings after the dash are exactly the three marks Skill 1 wants. Skill 3 hits harder the closer the heroes are, up to double damage, and every hero caught by the landing returns marks and Fury for the next rotation.

Ally-Targeted Escape

Skill 3 (target an ally, 1.5s airborne) → Landing (shield for him and the ally) → Skill 2 (leave)

Leaping the instant focus fire arrives buys 1.5s of being untargetable, with free movement on top. The shield grows by a third for every enemy hero the landing damages, so the middle of the fight is the thicker place to come down. The smash still deals its damage even when the pick was a teammate. Treat it as a way back into the fight, not only as an exit.

These combos are not official data. They are this site's own write-up, built only from the skill data transcribed from the in-game display; nothing that the skill text does not state is included.

Strengths

•Physical, magic, and true damage; no defensive build blanks him
•Lifesteal runs at 75% effect but drains from his magical and true damage too
•Three-stack Skill 1 is a super-armored, wide-area knock-up
•One Skill 3 covers chasing, dodging, and shielding an ally

Weaknesses

•His real damage only arrives once marks and rage are stacked
•Chained slows and kiting starve his stacks and his healing
•Basic attacks apply item effects at only 60%, demanding build knowledge
•Mobility lives on Skill 2; with charges spent he can't chase or run

Early Game Strategy

Allain's first rule in the clash lane: never commit before your marks are stacked. Marks build from basic attacks and Ultimate hits, and at three stacks Skill 1 becomes a different move entirely — true damage, super armor, and a wide knock-up. Until level 4, build marks through short basic-attack exchanges, fire Skill 1, and step back without chasing. His Passive heal at full rage scales with missing HP — up to triple — so a slightly bruised Allain wins brawls that look even on paper.

Mid Game Strategy

From about 10 minutes, once a lifesteal item finishes, Allain stops losing side-lane 1v1s. His Passive cuts item lifesteal to 75% of its effect, but in exchange it drains from his magical and true damage as well. Each basic attack lands one magical and one physical hit, with true damage added on every third — damage that would normally heal him for nothing now feeds the drain. The base pattern is split pushing to bait defenders, then running them down with Skill 2 dashes. Join teamfights late from a flank bush, and time Skill 3's 1.5-second untargetable window against the enemy's biggest skill to make it hit nothing but air.

Late Game Strategy

Your late-game job is diving the enemy carry — but always on the counterpunch. Wait for enemy CC to land on your teammates, then close with Skill 2 and deliver basic attacks into a three-stack Skill 1. The Ultimate can finish a chase, but the play that wins late games is casting it on an ally the instant you're focused: you vanish for 1.5 seconds, share the landing shield, and reset the exchange. The one thing to never forget — the moment marks and rage lapse, Allain turns abruptly soft.

Teamfight Strategy

Pick the single most dangerous enemy and refuse to leave them alone. Skill 2 holds two charges, so spend the first to close and the second to cut off the escape route. Three basic attacks into Skill 1 pushes through most interrupts thanks to super armor, lifting everyone around the target. Because rage grants penetration and damage reduction as it builds, Allain is at his strongest in a fight's second half — surviving the opening volley is the entire job description.
