Passive Ability | Effect |
---|---|
STALK Physical Damage Speed |
Elsu’s normal attacks deal (+1.8 AD) physical damage, but the duration between each attack becomes longer and the attacks cannot be critical strikes. Each 1% critical chance Elsu gains is converted into 3 Attack Damage. While not in combat, Elsu can hide next to obstacles and gains 16%-30% movement speed depending on his level.

SENTINEL Mana: 30 Buff |
Elsu places a device on his feet, enabling him to see everything within 600 to 1000 units (depending on his level) from the device. One device can be placed every 50 seconds, up to 3 may be in reserve and up to 3 may be placed on the map. Each device lasts 300 seconds, but loses its effectiveness if captured by enemy heroes. Elsu’s normal attacks and abilities deal additional damage to those within the area covered by the device.
Passive: When not moving, Elsu gains 1 stack of Ambush every second, and up to 5 stacks in total. Each stack increases 7% armor pierce. This effect is cancelled when Elsu moves.

A good Lindis will destroy him, or any good assasin. Good Elsu can steal your jungle tho
elsu’s second ability is 2.5 additional AD, not 2.5 AD
dau brau, it’s me, the Gatrix who writes content on VN website sv.
Just a little fix here, Elsu passive is not 1.8 AD. It’s 1.0 total AD plus 0.8 bonus AD. It means for each AD item he buys, he gains 180% effect from them on hit
It also works on crit chance conversion. But crit modified doesn’t work on him.
About Sentinel, fuck this skill, it was a nightmare for me to test. When the enemy hero stepped on it, a shit load of white number pop out of nowhere to my face, like lulz. Still don’t know what they meant.
And Sentinel grants me bonus dmg on everything? Need to test it abit, because in VNmese tooltip, it reads: on monster only.
I did a bit to test this. There is a barely discernable flicker in hp when it applies the bonus damage. It does bout 200 extra damage when fully leveled against monsters. I want to say minions too, but I didn’t test them all that much. It doesn’t seem to affect enemy heroes at all.
Best Build Elsu
WAR Boots, claw of fafnir, muramasa, devil handshake, Fenrir Tooth and Blade of eternity
dmg for shoot 1200 or 1600 + 1 or 900
Shoot rate 1 or 2 shoots for second
Anti Tank
Sentinel can regen hp. But the condition is weird. Try it!
It can heal with number white adding up with total heal green number around 174-374.
Must check again waht condition it give health regen. Try with 1/2 or less hp and maybe that is 50 sec interval also maybe must give or take damage from creep/hero inside area also.
when enemy heroes standing in the Sentinel but unable to disarm it ( didn’t stand in Sentinel in 2 sec), it will give white number and accumulate it into green number ( like heal), but i don’t know whether it heal elsu or just visual bug
1) The sentinel device can detect stealth unit as well
2) Walls don’t block device line of sight (yes it can see through wall as long as the other side of the wall is in range)
3) Snipe can be use instantly without charging to shoot enemies at your point blank range
4) The indicator and the laser pointer seem a little bit mismatch as of now even when fully charged and line up so it may screw up your shot sometimes
5) The camera pan out when you use Snipe, (possible bug: it doesn’t pan out sometimes if you get CC while using Snipe and use it afterward when the camera doesn’t fully zoom in yet)
6) According to the description in VN server, Snipe damage ratio is (+2.5 additional AD), don’t know if it true for the others
elsu’s red arcana isn’t violate, but atrocity
thanks, it’s been fixed
Too OP, needs to be nerf
too difficult, don’t nerf him
Elsu is definiately in the “S” category, calling him OP is not out of the truth. But he is like Murad, OP in the hand of a good player who know what he is doing and useless in the hand of a bad player. If you need “timing” for playing Murad, you need “precision” for Elsu, and making every shot of his abilities and normal attack meaningful => capitalize everything Elsu has to offer.
Best way to counter Elsu is a tank that can endure his shot and make way to him. Even assassins can get difficult to take out Elsu.
I would say Ybneth is a great counter to Elsu from my experience playing Elsu
