Badang EXP Lane Guide

Role Overview: Badang in the EXP lane focuses on harassing the enemy laner, securing farm, and rotating to help team fights. His high burst damage and crowd control make him a threat in skirmishes.

Playstyle:

• Early Game: Focus on last-hitting minions and poking the enemy with basic attacks and Qigong Fist. Avoid overextending without vision.
• Mid Game: Look for opportunities to rotate to mid-lane or the jungle to assist in ganks. Use your ultimate, Fist Break, to secure kills.
• Late Game: Stick with your team and initiate fights with Fist Break. Focus on locking down priority targets like the enemy Marksman or Mage.
