Despite Valhein and Tel'Annas no longer dealing magic damage, we still have another magical marksman from Realm of Valor with unique skills to replace them, that's Erin (Ai Linh). Despite being a mage, she uses continuous hand-to-hand combat, so we have many build options to maximize her power.
However, as she's a new hero, undoubtedly there will be some unfamiliarity and lack of optimal gameplay among players, which is why picking strong teammates to buff Erin is crucial. In this article, we'll suggest four heroes from different positions to help her become the number one marksman in the new meta.

Mage (Mid) - Krixi
Just like other marksmen in different lanes, Erin greatly benefits from having mages who can cover well, have decent control, and take away a significant amount of enemy health to help her easily finish off foes. With these criteria in mind, we have plenty of choices.
However, for Mytour, the ideal choice for the mid lane mage to accompany Erin would be Krixi - the Nature's Grace. This hero can deal wide area damage and can effectively control enemy health with skills 1 and 3. Most notably, her ultimate has a wide range, automatically attacking any enemies within it, which, when combined with Erin's skill 3, is like a true duo of nature spirits.
KrixiAt this point, numerous damages will automatically assault the enemy lineup. With Krixi dealing wide area damage and Erin creating single-target damage combos, this duo allows Erin to shock damage faster.
Support - Xeniel
As a mage marksman, Erin will need a support hero to accompany her lane, capable of absorbing damage, moving up for vision, and buffing her armor so she can comfortably spam skills on enemy heroes. With these criteria in mind, we should choose support heroes like Baldum, who can push enemies backward, or Thane, who is both tanky and good at mitigating damage, and currently super popular in ranks.
XenielOf course, we can't overlook Xeniel. This is a Support hero with immense shielding capabilities thanks to his skill 3 - Divine Protection, which can instantly descend to allies' sides no matter where they are on the map. It also buffs allies with a large amount of armor, heals them, and notably increases the movement speed of all allies within range.
With these abilities, Xeniel will provide excellent protection for a less mobile marksman like Erin, allowing her to navigate through any situation with ease.
Warrior (Top) - Bijan
Bijan - Earthshaker is a Warrior with tremendous strength in the Top lane. This Arena of Valor hero possesses a kit rich in damage and numerous continuous control effects. Most notably, his skill 3 - Desert Beast can move across the entire map and allows a teammate to accompany him anywhere.
This ability will surely help our hero engage in combat excellently and swiftly move to hotspots to support teammates. Moreover, as mentioned earlier, Bijan's skills all carry annoying crowd control effects, helping allies in the rear deal damage to enemies.
BijanWhen combining Bijan's ultimate with Erin's automatic damage dealing to targets, this duo is nothing short of a dangerous meat grinder. At this point, not only is it difficult for enemies to catch her, but they also receive tons of damage. Additionally, Bijan can support Erin by diving into enemy lines, causing chaos and soaking up damage, creating space for Erin to shoot from afar.
Assassin (Jungle) - Kaine
Kaine - Bloodstained Phantom is an Assassin with the ability to move flexibly and deal burst damage. Since its release, Kaine has proven to players that he is extremely dominant with his skill set. The continuous invisibility from his passive - Blood Concealment allows him to move to any position in the match, assist teammates with vision, and enable efficient and safe ganks for the team.
KaineBecause of these aspects, Kaine is extremely suitable to team up with Erin because she inherently lacks mobility as a marksman. Without vision, reckless movement could result in sudden ambushes. With a combo of three damaging skills, Kaine can swiftly assassinate enemy carries if the support moves too far forward.
Moreover, Kaine not only deals significant damage but also proves to be quite annoying with his crowd control and invisibility abilities, allowing him to easily escape in many dangerous situations after catching enemy carries. Kaine can support Erin by applying pressure to the opponents, eliminating dangerous threats, and creating opportunities for Erin to unleash damage from behind.
