Use Subtle Step to safely observe enemies and identify weak targets, especially those in the backline. His passive scales with missing base health, unaffected by bonus health from abilities like Spirit Rend.
Use his Spirit Rend to grant bonus health The Vibranium Mark will also allow you to see marked enemies even through walls, giving you the much-needed tactical advantage.
His ultimate, Bast’s Descent, deals substantial area damage, but its true value lies in its utility. It applies Vibranium Mark to all enemies hit, allowing you to use Spirit Rend multiple times without worrying about cooldowns. This makes it an essential tool for engaging multiple opponents during critical moments.
Since Black Panther thrives on swift eliminations. So, prioritize easier targets and avoid extended battles. Master his combos – Spear Toss, Spirit Rend, Vibranium Claws, and Spirit Rend can be very effective against opponent Duelists. Strategists will take the stray bullet too in this way.
