Overall

The Serpent Charmer

Thesku is a debuff-stacking controller built around Serpent's Marks. His attacks and skills apply marks that deal damage over time, and at full stacks the marks detonate, dealing heavy damage, stunning the target, and draining their energy. His neurotoxin locks down the highest-attack enemy, forcing them into normal attacks only — and those attacks heal the target's victims instead of hurting them. His fire breath strips accuracy, crit rate, and crit amplification, with the debuff duration extending based on active mark stacks. His ultimate petrifies any enemy carrying enough marks, freezing their actions and energy recovery, then slowing them afterward. Enemies who damage his reactive shield get debuffed and receive marks of their own. He survives one lethal hit and instantly refills energy, giving him a second rotation. The kit layers overlapping disables — stun, petrify, intoxication, stat shred — that keep enemies crippled while the marks tick.
