Arena of Valor: Top 5 Mages Ranked by Power Across Thai, Taiwanese, and Vietnamese Servers

Though Liliana prefers to avoid Soul Reaver on the Vietnamese server just as she does on the Taiwanese one, unlike her Vietnamese counterparts, she doesn't shun the Tome. Top, Support, and even Jungle are proactive in equipping her with either the Blade or the Book. Conversely, Vietnamese gamers tend to stick to their own devices, hence the reluctance to equip an item that reduces healing, leaving many dissatisfied.

Nevertheless, climbing ranks should prompt players to proactively acquire a special tome, especially in the late-game phase when opponents' healing becomes excessive. Throughout numerous updates, Liliana remains formidable, so mastering this Arena of Valor mage will undoubtedly ease the rank-climbing journey.

Top 2 - Yue 

For those seeking a hero with unrivaled burst damage potential, Yue stands as the epitome of excellence, requiring no adjustments. Regardless of the server, she's consistently a priority pick if available, otherwise auto-banned.

Yue's popularity remains consistent across all three servers. In tournaments, she orchestrates plays with precision cuts, functioning as the game's tempo-keeper. Her domain isn't overly expansive, primarily spanning from Mid to Dragon in the early game, occasionally planting herself at Dragon lane if mobility proves challenging.

When pressured, Yue players can easily relieve stress by cutting through minions and monsters. However, in defensive situations, it's advisable to use skills to target enemy heroes, particularly Marksmen or Mages. Engaging Yue against Caesar can be quite challenging. Conversely, a single precise strike from Yue's innate ability forces enemies to retreat instantly. In offensive scenarios, prioritize cutting down key targets.

Combos with Yue are undoubtedly effective when paired with Elsu or heroes with formidable crowd control effects like Krizzix, Lumburr, Thane, etc. Nevertheless, the crux of the matter lies in players' synergy. Misjudged timing with these companions can severely constrain Yue's potential.

Top 1 - Iggy

The reigning super mage of Arena of Valor dominates all leaderboards, be it in Thai, Vietnamese, or Taiwanese versions. Regular viewers of tournaments would acknowledge that Iggy is less frequently banned nowadays, not because of any weakening in prowess, but due to the increasing number of priority bans.

Iggy's popularity stems from his excellent burst damage capabilities and straightforward yet highly effective combo plays. Early game, Iggy's Fireball and Fire Surge combo, coupled with continuous spamming, make enemies exceedingly uncomfortable. In the later stages, although Iggy finds it challenging to spam his first skill, he compensates with two high-quality Fire Blasts, offering wide range and substantial damage, along with vision. A low-health Marksman or Mage hit by Iggy's Fire Blast in the late game, especially with Enchanted Talisman, is almost guaranteed to lose at least half of their health.

Combining forces with this Arena of Valor mage, Elsu, brings forth shocking damage capabilities rivaling, if not surpassing, those of Yue and much easier to execute. Presently, Iggy faces numerous counter matchups like Zata in 1v1 scenarios. However, in team-based engagements, Iggy proves to be a formidable opponent, not backing down against such avian adversaries.
