Lapu-Lapu – Counters
Weak against (counters)
Lapu-Lapu is countered by agile Marksmen who can knock him away, such as Lesley and Moskov. They can speed up or blink to avoid Lapu-Lapu's Ultimate, and use knockback effects to interrupt his 1st Skill in Great Sword stance or to keep him away.
Strong against
Lapu-Lapu is strong against squishy heroes who lack movement abilities, such as Layla and Eudora, because he has high burst damage and can use his mobility to get on top of them.

Lapu-Lapu – Skills
Homeland Defender
Lapu-Lapu accumulates 10 Bravery Blessing each time he deals damage (halved for damage dealt to non-hero units). When Bravery Blessing is full, Lapu-Lapu's next Basic Attack will make him dash toward the target, dealing (+150% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage (cannot Crit) and granting him a shield that absorbs 250 (+65*Hero Level) damage for 2.5s.
Justice Blades
CD: 6
Lapu-Lapu releases two boomerangs in the target direction, each boomerang dealing 140 (+50% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies hit on its way out and back.
Enemies hit by both boomerangs take 50% damage from the second hit.
Jungle Warrior
CD: 10
Lapu-Lapu dashes in the target direction, dealing 100 (+50% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to enemies along the way.
Bravest Fighter
CD: 30
Lapu-Lapu leaps to the target location while combining his twin blades into one, dealing 300 (+80% Total Physical Attack) Physical Damage to nearby enemies upon landing and slowing them by 60% for 1s. (This skill cannot be interrupted.)
Lapu-Lapu gains 3 times the Bravery Blessing from this skill and skills in transformed state.
For the next 10s, Lapu-Lapu enters Great Sword stance and gains enhanced skills, 30 Shield, and his Basic Attack damage is increased to 120%.
Combo
LANING COMBOS
In the laning phase, use Lapu-Lapu's 1st Skill to poke enemies. When Bravery Blessing is full, use his 2nd Skill and enhanced Basic Attacks.
TEAMFIGHT COMBOS
In teamfights, use Lapu-Lapu's 1st Skill to wear down the enemies' HP, then follow up with his 2nd Skill to get close and use his Ultimate to initiate. While in Great Sword stance, use his Ultimate again for high burst damage, then use his 2nd Skill to gain Damage Reduction,
and finally CC the enemy with his 1st Skill.
