SKILLS
This is the list of skills of Nuwa.
Passive
Guiding Light
Cooldown: 0s, Cost: 0
Description: For each level Nuwa gains, her vision, basic attack, and skill casting range increase by 2%, up to a maximum of 28%. When a skill hits an enemy hero, they are marked. Allies who deal basic attack or skill damage to the marked target gain 16% movement speed and recover 40-96 (+12% Magic Attack) health. This effect can only be triggered once every 0.5 seconds per attacker.
Tips: As the game progresses, Nuwa’s vision expands, and her long-range magical attacks allow her to find an optimal position for combat in the late game.
Skill 01
Incantation – Resplendence
Cooldown: 1s, Cost: 60
Description: Nuwa releases energy, dealing 280/325/370/415 (+30% Magic Attack) magic damage and knocking back enemies in its path. After colliding with an enemy, the energy slows down and unfolds into a cross-shaped array, dealing 280/325/370/415 (+30% Magic Attack) magic damage to enemies hit. The center of the cross deals double damage, and if the cross touches a Matrix Space, it triggers an explosion.
Tips: The cross-shaped array formed after the knockback has a large range, but the energy travels slowly, requiring precise prediction to hit.
Skill 02
Incantation – Creation
Cooldown: 0s, Cost: 40
Description: Nuwa creates a Matrix Space that blocks enemy heroes from passing through. Enemies near the Matrix Space have their movement speed reduced by 50%. The Matrix Space disappears after 3 seconds, or it can explode if touched by one of Nuwa’s skills, dealing 540/610/680/750 (+65% Magic Attack) magic damage to nearby enemies (multiple simultaneous explosions only deal damage once to the same target). For every 100 points of Magic Attack, the duration of the Matrix Space is extended by 0.2 seconds. Nuwa can store up to 4 Matrix Spaces.
Tips: Nuwa’s Magic Power can extend the duration of the Matrix, allowing her to create a more advantageous battle environment.
Skill 03
Incantation – Emergence
Cooldown: 50/45/40/35s, Cost: 100
Nuwa creates a rift, teleporting herself to a designated location and dealing 500/560/620/680 (+65% Magic Attack) magic damage to nearby enemies, briefly stunning them.
Passive: When Nuwa takes damage from enemy heroes, an automatic defense mechanism is triggered, slowing nearby enemies by 50%, generating a shield of 400/480/560/640 (+80% Magic Attack), and increasing her movement speed by 30% for 2 seconds. This effect has a 10-second cooldown.
Tips: This long-range mobility skill ensures that Nuwa can quickly support fights in other lanes or jungle skirmishes.
Ultimate
Incantation – Ruin
Cooldown: 50/40/30s, Cost: 120
Description: Nuwa releases pure energy, dealing 700/1050/1400 (+88% Magic Attack) magic damage to enemies in its path. If the energy touches a Matrix Space, it triggers an explosion.
Tips: In the early to mid-game, holding this skill can be used to threaten enemies in other positions. In the late game, it can directly strike the enemy backline.

Nuwa Best Partners
Menki: When Meng Qi invades, Nu Wa can provide tactical support; in team fights, she can work with Meng Qi to split the battlefield and control the situation. As a priority target for focus fire, Nu Wa can provide multiple layers of protection.
Nuwa Counter
- Miyamoto Musashi can easily cross the matrix space and engage Nu Wa in close combat.
- Prince of Lanling: Nu Wa may not predict from which direction Lan Ling Wang will attack, and his high burst damage can pressure her.
Quickly push lanes to force Nu Wa not to easily leave; Nu Wa’s skills require prediction, and relying on own mobility skills can easily dodge her attacks.
Gameplay Tips
- Always pay attention to teammates, as quick and effective support is Nu Wa’s greatest strength;
- Nu Wa’s magical attacks can not only increase damage but even affect the duration of the matrix.
- Vision range increases with level.
- Skill synergy can effectively control enemies.
Team Fight Strategy
Nu Wa can play multiple roles in team fights. As a counter-initiator, her energy radiate can push back charging warriors, and the spreading cross array can cause area damage. When coordinating with teammates, the matrix space can create advantageous terrain. As a mid-laner, her ult can pierce through the front line to hit the back line directly, causing high burst damage.
