SKILLS
This is the list of skills of Erin
Passive
Elf Dance
Cooldown: 0s, Cost: 0
Erin’s basic attacks deal (+100% Physical Attack) (+20% Magic Attack) physical damage and grant energy. When energy is full, Erin consumes it to fly rapidly. For every 100 points of magic attack, her flight speed increases by 30, up to a maximum of 450. When energy is full, Erin gains a Laurel Mark and enhanced basic attacks, dealing 70 (+120% Physical Attack) (+30% Magic Attack) physical damage to targets along her path. Erin’s penetration/lifesteal is universal, using the higher value between physical and magic penetration/lifesteal.
Tips: Energy must be fully consumed before acquiring new energy; adjust your attack and movement rhythm to avoid energy issues.
Skill 01
Dance – Leaf Greeting
Cooldown: 7.5/7.2/6.9/6.6/6.3/6s, Cost: 0
Skill 1: Erin shoots a Laurel Leaf, dealing 350/420/490/560/630/700 (+40% Physical Attack) (+100% Magic Attack) magic damage to the target and stacking a Laurel Mark. Upon hitting an enemy hero or reaching its maximum range, the leaf expands into a ring, dealing 125/150/175/200/225/250 (+20% Physical Attack) (+30% Magic Attack) magic damage and slowing by 30% for 1 second. Each 100 points of magic attack reduces the cooldown by 0.1 seconds, up to a maximum of 1.5 seconds.
Tips: The leaf only expands into a ring upon hitting an enemy hero or reaching the maximum range. The ultimate cannot be used during this skill.
Skill 02
Twirl – Forest Whisper
Cooldown: 10/9.6/9.2/8.8/8.4/8s, Cost: 0
Skill 2: Erin is blessed by the Golden Forest, instantly refilling her energy (gaining a Laurel Mark and enhancing basic attacks) and gaining an additional Laurel Mark. Erin becomes immune to slow effects and increases her attack speed by 20/24/28/32/36/40% for 3 seconds.
Tips: Use this skill to counter slow effects, chase, or retreat. It also adds an extra Laurel Mark, helping to stack the ultimate faster.
Ultimate
Waltz – Laurel Bloom
Cooldown: 20/17.5/15s, Cost: 0
Ultimate: When Erin’s energy is full, she gains a Laurel Mark. When the Laurel Marks reach 6 layers, [Laurel Dance • Blooming] unlocks, with a maximum of 12/15/18 layers. Activating this skill increases movement speed by 10/15/20% and continuously consumes marks to release Laurel Leaves, dealing 60/90/120 (+40% Physical Attack) (+35% Magic Attack) magic damage to the lowest health target in the area and reducing the cooldown of [Skill 2] by 0.2 seconds.
Tips: The ultimate can only target the nearest unit. Be mindful of positioning. It also increases movement speed, allowing for better pursuit or retreat.

Combo Sequence
Utilize Skill 2, empowered basic attacks, and Skill 1 for damage over time, intersperse basic attacks to trigger passives, and finally use Skill 3 for finishing.
Erin Best Partners
- Niumo can provide control and tankiness, creating space for Erin to output damage. His passive can also improve Erin’s survivability.
- Yaria can enhance Erin’s survivability.
Erin Counter
- Jialuo’s long range makes it difficult for Erin to respond in lane, and her mobility is countered by Jialuo’s slows.
- Houyi can control Erin preemptively, and his stationary output capability is higher than Erin’s.
Counter Tips
- Erin has low survivability, so save control abilities for her.
- Erin deals purely magical damage, so the Witch’s Cloak is an effective counter against her.
- Focus on the rhythm of basic attacks to consume energy with glides, then continue attacking. Use the ultimate in advance to increase movement speed for chasing or retreating.
- Erin has low survivability, so reserve control skills for her.
Team Fight Strategy
Use basic and empowered basic attacks to pull and output damage on the edge of the battlefield, then utilize the ultimate for finishing.
Detail 1: Focus on the rhythm of basic attacks, forming a pattern of three basic attacks followed by a glide to consume energy, then continue attacking. Energy can only be replenished after it’s fully consumed by moving.
Detail 2: Increase movement speed during the ultimate to chase or retreat in advance.
