- Burst combo: instant control + damage on one key via Combo Builder.
- Finish: auto-cast the ultimate when target HP drops below a computed threshold via Kill Stealer.
- Auto-farm: last-hit + deny via Last-Hit and wave block at the start via Crip Blocker.
- Evade: Blink, BKB or Eul on an incoming skillshot via Dodger.
