Season 44 End-of-Season Climbing Recommendations: Nezha's Map-Wide Burning, Wu Zetian's Frenzied Chain Control: Mid Lane Edition
2026-09-22 14:12
When aiming for the top ranks at the end of the season, choosing the right meta heroes is beneficial because it saves time and effort. It's rare to find free time to play games, and some players simply want to clear their minds, unleash their inner child, and have fun in a virtual world. Unfortunately, they happen to choose a competitive game, hoping to experience the thrill of kills without requiring too much intelligence. These types of players are everywhere in the Rift, so they head to the mid lane. Of course, some pursue ultimate burst damage, or have a penchant for mindlessly controlling and overwhelming the opponent. Mages truly "benefit greatly" in this regard. As for which hero to recommend, Wu Zetian is a good choice.
Middle lane
Wu Zetian is an extremely expensive hero in the game, requiring a Glory Crystal to redeem. There are 20 Glory Collection skins available in the shop. Giving up your best hero's highest-tier skin for a mid-lane hero is theoretically sound, but it depends on the player's values. Collecting all heroes and then all skins is also reasonable, especially since Wu Zetian has always been a coveted mid-lane hero. In nearly 11 years of mobile games, how much time and effort would it take to get her for free? If it weren't for recent versions making Glory Crystals more accessible and giving away tons of Lucky Draw tickets, this hero would be unattainable. Even after starting this trend, there's still the need to buy skins to improve the feel. Wu Zetian's excessive animation delay and lack of visual appeal are quite discouraging for players. Therefore, free-to-play players know how to maximize their benefits by utilizing major events.
Since the target has been locked in, if the limited-time points are less than 1688, exchange them all for Treasure Hunt Tickets to make up the numbers for the triple probability during the Spring Festival. As for the skin, it's not hard to solve. You can exchange for Ocean Heart at the Spirit Treasure Market and the anniversary event. The pink and white Star Element is free. One Crystal Mage and two outfits are all free. Only free-to-play players can do this.
Regardless, thanks to the existence of the Wuxiang Artifact, the ultimate skill's cooldown is halved in the late game, allowing it to be cast once every 30 seconds. Its vision and combo value have increased significantly, making it a core skill for Wu Zetian, resulting in a qualitative change in strength. The passive skill grants movement speed, eliminating the need for the Holy Grail. It allows for long-range support, and the large and small crowd control abilities can be combined with teammates to create unexpected kills. This season, there's really no need to be stingy with skill casting. Start with Boots of Swiftness, followed by the Wuxiang Artifact, Nightmare's Fang, Pain Mask, Void Staff, and Book of Devourer. This is the brainless high burst damage build for her.
