Freya – Counters
Weak against (counters)
However, all of Freya's skills have movement components, making her vulnerable to Phoveus's unique counter. Using her skills near Phoveus will allow him to quickly gain energy for his enhanced Basic Attacks. Freya is vulnerable to CC and movement-disabling effects, so Minsitthar and Obsidia's Ultimates can lock her down completely.
Phoveus48.1%
Minsitthar51.8%
Franco41.4%
Baxia45.9%
Esmeralda46.9%
Strong against
Freya not only has exceptional mobility, she also excels in prolonged engagements, making her highly effective against fragile, low-HP Marksmen, such as Lesley and Ixia. Her excellent sustained damage and mobility also allows her to counter Tanks with low damage, like Uranus and Baxia.
Freya – Skills
Power of Einherjar
Freya gains 1 Sacred Orb with each Basic Attack (up to 6 Sacred Orbs). Consuming 1 Sacred Orb grants Freya 100% Attack Speed for her next Basic Attack (up to 6 stacks).
While out of combat, Sacred Orbs regenerate gradually.
Leap of Faith
CD: 8
Freya leaps to the target area and strikes the ground with her shield, gaining 500 (+100% Total Physical Attack) shield and dealing 200 (+80% Extra Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies within while knocking them airborne for 0.4s.
Valkyrie Slash
CD: 0.396
Freya charges forward and slashes, dealing 150 (+50% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage and slowing enemies by 30% for 0.5s.
This skill has no base cooldown but consumes 2 Sacred Orbs per cast.
It deals 50% damage to creeps.
Valkyrie Descent
CD: 44
Freya selects a target area and dives down as a Sacred Orb (gaining Control Immunity), dealing 300 (+75% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage and 40% slow to enemies in her path and at the landing point for 2s. Upon landing, Freya enters the Valkyrie state for 10s, during which her Basic Attacks deal 30 extra damage (extra damage cannot Crit), she recovers 40 (+40% Total Physical Attack) HP per Basic Attack, and her Basic Attacks deal splash damage.
Combo
LANING COMBOS
Use Freya's 1st Skill to close the gap on enemies and knock them Airborne while giving herself a shield. Use her 2nd Skill once followed by 2 enhanced Basic Attacks to make use of the Attack Speed bonus and generate more Sacred Orbs from her Passive.
TEAMFIGHT COMBOS
Use Freya's Ultimate to dive the enemy backline and start dealing Splash Damage. Use her 1st Skill to CC enemies and shield herself, then alternate between her 2nd Skill and AoE Basic Attacks to bring them down.
