Overview
Obsidia is a new Marksman, she brings a unique gameplay that mixes high damage output with anti-mobility mechanics. Her role in the game is to deal consistent burst and sustained physical damage, especially against fragile targets.
Strengths
Strong Scaling: Extremely powerful in mid to late game once core items are built. High Damage Output: Passive shard attacks boost her damage significantly and apply item effects. Anti-Mobility: Ultimate prevents enemies from escaping with dash or blink, great against assassins and mobile carries. Good Poke & Harass: Skill 1 allows safe lane control and farming advantage. Chase Potential: Skill 2 and Ultimate together give her excellent ability to chase down fleeing enemies.
Weaknesses
Weak Early Game: Needs time and farm to build up items before becoming a threat. Squishy: Very low durability; easily killed if caught without positioning. Reliant on Positioning: Requires careful play in team fights, as she has no strong defensive skill besides mobility. Skill-Dependent: Missing her Ultimate can waste her biggest advantage in team fights. Vulnerable to Burst: Easily taken down by mages or assassins if targeted first.
Crit
This Crit Build focuses on maximizing obsidia burst and sustained damage through critical hits. enhances basic attacks, greatly increase her crit rate and damage, allowing her to shred squishy heroes quickly.
Anti tank
This Anti-Tank Build is designed to help Obsidia deal with frontliners and durable heroes. It focuses on attack speed, lifesteal, and armor penetration to melt even the tankiest enemies.
Poke and gor tanky heroes
I chose the Emblem with Weakness Finder for Obsidia because it perfectly complements her playstyle as a marksman who relies on basic attacks and Bone Shard bursts. Weakness Finder slows enemies by 50% and reduces their attack speed by 30%, making it much harder for opponents to escape or fight back in duels.
For squishy heroes
This Emblem with Weakness Finder is a strong option for Obsidia when you want to maximize her dueling and chase potential. Since her passive (Bone Shards) and basic attacks are her main source of damage, Weakness Finder adds huge value by slowing enemies by 50% and reducing their attack speed by 30%.
Battle Spell
I chose Inspire for Obsidia because it greatly boosts her attack speed and enhances her basic attacks, which synergizes perfectly with her passive (Bone Shards). Inspire allows her to quickly stack and release shards, maximizing her burst and sustained DPS in both laning and team fights.
MID GAME
During the mid game, Obsidia should already have her core items (attack speed + crit/penetration). Focus on: Rotating with your tank/support to secure Turtle or pressure lanes. Using Skill 1 for safe poke and clearing minion waves. Positioning carefully during skirmishes — never engage first, wait for your frontline to soak damage. Targeting enemy squishies (marksmen, mages, assassins) once your Ultimate can prevent them from escaping.
LATE GAME
In the late game, Obsidia becomes one of the strongest carries if well-farmed. At this stage: Always stay behind your frontline — survival is more important than aggression. Use Inspire + Ultimate combo to instantly melt key targets (enemy marksman, mage, or assassin). Be aware of enemy assassins/divers (like Ling, Natalia, Saber) — position near allies or buy defensive items if needed. Focus on securing Lord with your team, as your DPS shreds it quickly. In team fights, never overextend. Attack from the backline and let your passive (Bone Shards) + crits finish enemies.
Best With Angela
Angela can cast her Ultimate (Heartguard) on Obsidia, giving her a shield while boosting survivability when she dives or gets focused. skill 1slow and skill 2 make it easier for Obsidia to hit enemies with her tether and keep them within her damage range.
Watch Out For Belerick
His passive reflects some damage, but Obsidia lifesteal and range let her sustain through it. In extended team fights, Belerick cant reach Obsidia easily, making him less of a threat compared to divers like Saber or Ling.
