Female, monk-like, graceful, thoughtful, disdains mages.
The kit is for the first no cooldown, combo-based hero. Aftershock’s perk cannot trigger on Yugana.
Weapon: Staff/Bo
Perk: Blunt Force - Each auto attack drains 5% of the enemy’s max energy. Stamina based heroes are immune.
Energy: Yugana uses stamina which is depleted with skill use. Auto-attacks quickly replenish stamina but will slowly regenerate similar to Lance and Idris.
Range: 2.8
Kit premise: Each skill has a base action. The following skill determines what combo action comes next. The kit has a reset to base actions after 2.5 seconds displayed with a gray bar below the stamina bar. All skills are targetless skill shots. Using the same skill twice in a row costs 1.5x more stamina. All skills have a base range of 3.5 unless otherwise stated.
A: Front Thrust - Range 6 low damage poke, (Joule B)
B: Spinning Strike - A 360-degree leaping, spinning dash before a strong 90-degree strike. (Idris A)
C: Front Swipe - aoe 180-degree swipe in front. (Glave Cleave)
A - B: Pole Vault Kick - Long ranged leap. Take two steps and launch. Activatable “donut ring”. High damage (nothing similar)

She is a medium damage hero with a high amount of utility like a Swiss army knife. Excels at mage killing through sustained attacks.
The key is animating each transition from basic attacks to each of the 9 skills and between skills. Skills buttons would be placed on an animation delay based on each action. You don’t get to button mash the same skill because of the increased stamina costs. Each combo has a varying stamina cost and animation timing. Finding the most efficient combo is the goal.
