Hero Skill !
Finch Poise
(Passive): Ling’s Critical Chance is permanently increased by 2.5%. (Active): Ling casts his Lightness Skill, leaping onto the designated wall, entering (half-stealth) state, restoring Lightness Points more quickly and gaining 30% Movement Speed. If Ling receives damage, he will leave the (half-stealth) state. If he is controlled, he will fall onto the ground and be slowed by 30% for 2s. When using this skill to jump from a wall to another, it will reset the Cooldown and refresh the (half-stealth) state.
Passive: Ling permanently increases the Crit Chance. His Crit Chance will be improved after 1st Skill levels up.
Active: Ling casts his Qinggong (lightness skill), leaping to the designated wall, entering camouflage state and restoring Lightness Points more quickly. When Ling receives damage, he will end the camouflaged state. If he is controlled, he will fall onto the ground. When using this skill to jump from a wall to another, it will reset the CD and refresh the Camouflage State.
Ling could quickly leap from wall to wall and could move to anywhere at the battlefield. He could escape from the danger quickly.
Defiant Sword
Ling charges in the target direction and stabs nearby enemies, dealing them 250( +33% Total Physical Attack) (Physical Damage). If Ling casts this skill when he's on the wall, he'll dash to the target location on the ground, dealing 250( +33% Total Physical Attack) (Physical Damage) to enemies in the area and slowing them by 30% for 1.5s. If this attack Crits, the enemies will be slowed by an extra 45% for 0.75s. (Defiant Sword) is regarded as Basic Attack, can trigger attack effects, and restores 35 HP for Ling each time it hits an enemy.
Ling charges in a designated direction and stabs the nearby enemies at his destination. If Ling casts this skill when he is on the wall, he will dash to a designated spot on the ground, dealing Damage to enemies within a small area and slowing them down. If this attack deals Crit damage, enemies within the area will extra be slowed.
"Defiant Sword" can trigger ATK Effects as Basic Attack and can restore HP for Ling each time he hits an enemy.
This is Ling's main DMG skill, which could deal Critical Damage and trigger ATK Effect. Use it wisely and Ling could deal massive burst damage.
Tempest of Blades
Ling leaps into the air, becoming invincible and gaining 10% extra Movement Speed for 1.5s. He ignores obstacles when in the air. He then lands on the ground, dealing 250( +100% Total Physical Attack) (Physical Damage) to enemies in the area, knocking those in the center airborne for 1s, and creating a Sword Field for 8s. Four (Tempest of Blades) will also appear on the edge of the Sword Field. Ling can touch them to reduce the cooldown of (Finch Poise) by 4s, reset the cooldown of (Defiant Sword), and gain 25 Lightness points.
Ling leaps up and casts his superb sword skill for 1.5s, during which he becomes invincible and can move freely, dealing Damage to enemies within the area of effect, knocking the central enemy into the air, and generating a Sword Field. At the edge of the Sword Field, there will be 4 field eyes “Tempest of Blades". By touching the field eye, Ling can reset the CD of "Defiant Sword" and restore Lightness Points.
Choosing the right timing to activate this skill can dramatically help Ling to dodge massive DMG. Ling can get CC if he hits enemies with the core of the skill. By touching the field eye, Ling can reset "Defiant Sword" and restore Lightness Points and deal burst damage.
Cloud Walker
Ling's superb Lightness Skill allows him to leap among walls. He gains 4 extra Lightness Points per second when he's on a wall and 5 extra Lightness Points each time he deals damage. Ling gains 1.5 times Crit Chance from all sources but only has 150% Crit Damage.
Ling's superb lightness skill helps him leap from wall to wall to chase enemies. When resting on the wall, Ling restores extra Lightness Points per second. Every time Ling deals damage to enemies, he restores extra Lightness Points. Ling’s lightness skill grants him Crit Chance, but decreases his Crit Damage.
The Crit Chance of Ling’s Passive Skill grants him the possibility of dealing Burst DMG in Early Game. With proper equipment and emblems, the Crit Chance could greatly increase the burst DMG he deals.

Berserker's Fury
3003
Unique Passive - Doom: Critical strikes grant 5% extra Physical Attack for 2s.
Flame Hunter's Magic Boots
3432
Unique Passive - Hunter: After dealing damage to a Creep, deal 25<2|lv 3> + <1005 0.01> True Damage to the target over 3s (damage is increased by 100% for non-Marksmen heroes).
Windtalker
3005
Unique Passive - Typhoon: Every 5-2s (reduced by 0.2s for each Basic Attack), the next Basic Attack will hit up to 3 enemy units for 150-362 Magic Damage. (This attack can Crit and the damage increases to 200% against Minions.)
Endless Battle
3004
Unique Passive - Divine Justice: After casting a skill, the next Basic Attack within 3s deals 60% Physical Attack as extra True Damage (1.5s cooldown).
Blade of Despair
3008
Unique Passive - Despair: Dealing damage to non-Minion enemies below 50% HP increases Physical Attack by 25% for 2s (takes effect before the damage is dealt).
Immortality
3207
Unique Passive - Immortal: Revives 2.5s after death, gaining 16% Max HP and a 220-1200 shield (scales with level) that lasts 3s (210s cooldown).
In the choice of equipment, we highly recommend this set.
As Ling’s CD is comparatively short and Defiant Sword can trigger ATK Effects as Basic Attack, we recommend you to choose Endless Battle at the start to greatly increase Ling’s DMG. Because Ling has greater Crit Chance than most of the Heroes, Berserker's Fury is very suitable for him. Blade of Despair could grant Ling ATK Bonus and increase the DMG he deals.
