Synn Store BLOG - Break the Meta: The Unstoppable Wanwan Build for Solo Rank

The Land of Dawn is changing. A major meta shift is here, and it’s leaving Marksmen (MM) to fend for themselves in the Gold Lane. With the Gold Lane's Lithowanderer getting a nerf and the XP Lane's counterpart getting a buff, roamers and junglers are focusing their attention elsewhere. This means as a Marksman, you need to be self-sufficient, tough, and able to dominate your lane alone.

Luckily, one hero shines brighter than ever in this solo-lane scenario: Wanwan.

Her unparalleled mobility and built-in purify make her the perfect candidate to survive and thrive without constant support. However, the old builds won't cut it. This new meta demands a drastic change in her itemization.

The "Why": Understanding Wanwan's New Core Items

This build prioritizes sustainability, kiting potential, and consistent damage, allowing you to stay in lane longer and win 1v1 duels.

1. Start with a Dagger: Don't complete a full item first. Rush a basic Dagger to get that initial attack speed boost. This helps you proc your passive, Tiger Pace, more easily for early-game kiting and last-hitting minions.

   
   

2. First Core Item: Corrosion Scythe: This is now the non-negotiable first item for Wanwan. It gives you everything you need:

   
   

   • Attack Speed: Crucial for hitting enemy weaknesses.

     
     

   • Movement Speed: Enhances your already high mobility.

     
     

   • Slow Effect: The passive Corrosion makes it incredibly easy to stick to targets, hit all their weaknesses, and unlock your ultimate, Crossbow of Tang.

     
     

3. Second Core Item: Haas's Claws: With no healer by your side, lifesteal is essential. The revamped Haas's Claws is perfect, providing significant lifesteal for sustain in lane and during fights. The extra attack speed it now offers is a fantastic bonus that synergizes perfectly with your kit.

   
   

Adapting Your Build: Situational Items are Key

After your two core items, your build must adapt to the enemy team's composition. This is where good players become great.

Scenario A: The Enemy is Tanky (Full of Fighters/Tanks)

If you're facing multiple high-HP heroes like Fredrinn, Uranus, or Esmeralda, you need to shred through their health bars.

• Your Go-To Item: Demon Hunter Sword (DHS) DHS deals damage based on the enemy's current HP, making it the ultimate tank-buster item. Combined with Corrosion Scythe, you will melt even the toughest frontlines.

  
  

Scenario B: The Enemy is Squishy (Full of Mages/Marksmen)

If the enemy team consists of mostly low-HP, high-damage heroes, your goal is to burst them down before they can react.

• Your Go-To Items: Berserker's Fury & Windtalker This combination provides a massive spike in critical damage and attack speed. Berserker's Fury increases your crit chance and damage, while Windtalker gives you a huge burst of attack speed and a unique passive, Typhoon, that can critically strike and hit multiple enemies.

  
  

Finishing Your Build: Late-Game Essentials

No matter which path you take, these final items are crucial for sealing the deal.

• Penetration: Malefic Roar As the game goes on, even squishy heroes will build some defense. Malefic Roar is essential to cut through enemy armor and ensure your damage stays relevant in the late game.

  
  

• Your Defensive Choice: Pick One

  
  

  • Wind of Nature (WoN): This is your best friend against physical burst damage (e.g., other Marksmen, Assassins like Lancelot or Hayabusa). Its active skill makes you immune to all physical damage for 2 seconds, which is often enough time to turn a fight around.

    
    

  • Rose Gold Meteor: If the primary threat is a magic burst assassin (e.g., Gusion, Kadita, Eudora), this item is a lifesaver. It provides a shield that absorbs magic damage when your HP drops low.
