Build
The punch-shield sustain. Contract: Transform is the multiplier: 500 (+3 per stack) every 2 basics (5s gate) - at 200 stacks a 1100 shield on rotation: his sustain comes from the STACKS, not the item slot. Quantum Charge: his Steal-basics restore 75-180 HP plus 30% MS on heroes - the lane sustain under the shield. Sea Halberd (80 PA, 20 AS): Lifebane cuts every punched target to 60% sustain for 3s - sustain duels fold to the execution. Queen's Wings (750 HP, 10% CDR, 10% spell vamp): below 40% HP he gains 30% damage reduction for 3s plus 2s off every skill CD (60s CD) - the shield-trade stays alive. Hunter Strike plus BoD plus Endless core kept: rate, execution, proc. Firmness (+8/+8) steadies the 32-early invade (his fold band - concede it, stack through it). 6th slot Endless Battle: the stack tempo double-hits - true-proc on top of the punch.

Counter Builds
Vs Aldous: his Soul Steal stacks forever (650 cap: +3250 per punch): the counter is game-TEMPO - his 32-early is the fold window, end before the 90-late: invade his lane, deny siege proximity (+5 free stacks) and last-hits (+4/+10). His Transform shield (500 + 3/stack) gates every 5s after 2 basics: burst inside the 2-basic window, before it lands. Chase Fate (60s) reveals ALL heroes plus a recast dash (250 + 8% max HP, 1s knockback, interrupts Recall): never walk alone low, never Recall in vision. His Explosion stance (30% DR, 2s): disengage the stance, re-engage after. He is 32/58/90 - the infinite scaler; early aggression (Esmeralda/Karina/Brody-style) is his wall, brawlers he out-stacks are his food.
