Hero Hilda
Hilda (Fighter)
Hero Skill !
Combat Ritual
Hilda activates the runic power of her great axe, increasing her Movement Speed by 60% for 3s and enhancing her next Basic Attack to deal 200( +100% Total Physical Attack) (Physical Damage) and slow the target by 40% for 3s. The attack will also deal 120( +60% Total Physical Attack) (Physical Damage) to enemies behind the target.
This is a good skill to chase or zone out enemies, especially damage dealers with low mobility (mage, assassin, marksman) especially during team fights. Hilda can target the enemy backline with this skill or chase away assassin who are killing their team’s carry.
Art of Hunting
Hilda locks onto an enemy target, each time dealing 220( +100% Total Physical Attack) (Physical Damage). Skill can be released 3 times at most. The 2nd attack will deal damage to target's surroundings, and the 3rd attack will knock back the target and surrounding enemies temporarily.
This is your primary source of crowd control. Movement speed is useless if you can’t pin down your target. This makes sure that your target will be chased away or will be zoned out from the team fight making the target useless. Aside from the crowd control, this deals enough amount of damage to make the enemy fall back. Make sure that you are going punish your target with this ability.
Power of Wildness
Hilda launches a powerful slash on the target enemy, dealing 600( +250% Extra Physical Attack) (Physical Damage) and stunning them for 0.2s. Nearby enemies also take 60% damage. Each stack of (Wilderness Mark) makes (Power of Wildness) deal 2.5% of the target's Max HP as extra damage. At max stacks, (Power of Wildness) deals 20% of the target's Max HP as extra damage.
Make sure that you get assists as much as possible to have stacks for Hilda’s ultimate. It is very convenient since every stack gives you a lot of additional damage, with this said, Hilda’s not only tanky but can also deal a decent amount of damage to the enemy she’s targeting. This also completes the kit of Hilda in dominating every lane she gank.
Blessing of Wilderness
Hilda regenerates 2% of her max HP per second while in the bush. When entering the bush, she gains a shield equal to 15% of her max HP. After leaving the bush, the shield lasts for 5s. This effect has a 10s cooldown. Hilda's Basic Attack and Skills apply a (Wilderness Mark) on hit, which lasts up to 4s and stacks up to 6. Each stack reduces the target's Physical Defense and Magic Defense by 4%.
Her passive is a very strong tool for fights, she can always do trade damage in her lane then go to the bush to heal herself. Always maximize the use for this passive because it will help you a lot when laning.

Main
Secondary
Battle First
Battle Second
Her first skill follows, which is Combat Ritual, This is a skill used for chasing and zoning while also dealing a decent amount of damage to her target. Lastly, her second skill which is the Art of Hunting, this also deals damage but this skill is mostly for crowd control, so it can stay at level 1 and can be maxed last.
Petrify is very good when used in Hilda, Hilda’s kits contain a lot of crowd control but it targets a single enemy only. Using petrify will help Hilda in controlling the enemies around her target and it also eliminates the chance of her target to escape.

Warrior boots, because of all shoes available, this one provides the most economical stats for her, it offers armor as well as movement speed.
Cursed Helmet, this gives magic resistance to Hilda, it also deals 2% of her max HP as magic damage to nearby enemies surrounding her.
Blade Armor is a good counter for harassment, if she’s chasing an enemy with long range, for sure they will deal damage to her when she’s still in a distance so this is a good choice for her.
Athena’s shield, this offers HP as well as magic resistance to Hilda. She also gets a shield every 30s to absorb damage, this shield effect increases as the battle goes on which is very convenient for her since she can hold on to battles for she is very tanky and she has an Hp regen whenever she goes to the bushes.
Demon’s Advent, this gives Hilda another source for her tankiness and this also goes hand in hand with Blade Armor, while Blade Armor counters the basic attacks, Demon’s Advent lowers the enemy’s attack power by 4% making it impossible for them to harass Hilda while she’s chasing the target.
Immortality, this completes Hilda’s items, coupled with Athena’s Shield, you can tank far more than what you expected, This gives Hilda another magic resistance and makes her HP go up as well. The passive of this item gives Hilda another shot to tank while the fight is still on-going or to run to the nearest bush and regain her health.
Overall, this gear gives Hilda the HP, armor and magic resistance she needs to tank and be at the front of her teammates while also giving Hilda enough damage to deal to their enemies.
