Build
The rebound grind. The Bounce-Blitz loop is the multiplier: double-hop positioning into 10-hit percent windows, out, repeat - and this build armors the loop. Brute Force Breastplate (800 HP, 20 PDef, 10% CDR): her constant Blitz damage keeps the per-second +8 adaptive and +2% MS rolling to 6 stacks (+48 attack, +12% MS) with 25% control-duration cut at full - the dancer accelerates inside the fight. Sea Halberd (80 PA, 20 AS): Lifebane cuts every Blitz-touched target to 60% sustain for 3s (Lifebane fires on ANY damage, skills included) - sustain duels fold to the percent. War Axe plus Hunter Strike core kept: stacks, chase, rate. Temporal Reign: ON CASTING Curtain Call, her Blitz and Bounce recover 1.5x for 4s (plus 2s on kill/assist) - the post-link percent spam on the pair. Tough Boots: 25% CC and slow reduction keeps the hops connected. Immortality: the second act. Firmness (+8/+8) steadies the early trade. 6th slot Hunter Strike: the 5-hit MS chases hop-to-hop - more sticks, more percent.

Counter Builds
Vs Cici: her Yo-Yo Blitz (6.5s) locks the NEAREST enemy for 3.5s (turrets included if empty): juke a minion between you and her - she wastes the full 10-hit cast on a creep. Her Bounce (9.5s) re-leaps ONLY off landed units: deny the landing and the hop ends. Her Delight (10 stacks, doubled at full: 15% MS + 15% spell vamp) is the whole economy: CC her before the ramp completes. Her Call (40s) links two heroes for shared Blitz: spread on the link cue - the pair takes double. She is 68/78/70 - the mid dancer; Sun-type packs are her wall (dilute the Blitz, grind her down); duelists she out-sustains are her food.
