## Skills

### Primal Force (Buff, Heal)

Valentina gains 8-50 extra EXP (scales with level) each time she deals damage to an enemy hero. Cooldown: 2s.
If the enemy hero's level is not higher than hers, 30% of the damage dealt is converted into her HP.

### Shadow Strike (Damage, CC)

_CD: 7   Mana Cost: 70_

Valentina casts **Shadow Strike** in the target direction, dealing 475 **(+145% Total Magic Power)** **Magic Damage** to enemies hit and slowing them by 40% for 1s.
Enemy heroes hit are marked with a **Shadow Sigil** for 4s. Marked enemies hit by **Shadow Strike** again are **Terrified** for 1s (a target can only be terrified once every 4s).

### Arcane Shade (Mobility, Buff)

_CD: 12   Mana Cost: 40_

Valentina dashes in the target direction, firing 3 Shadow Bolts at nearby enemies that deal 90 **(+30% Total Magic Power)** **Magic Damage** each. She can cast this skill again within 6s (costs Mana).

Each time a Shadow Bolt hits an enemy, the cooldown of **Shadow Strike** is reduced by 1s.

### I Am You (Morph, Slow)

_CD: 55_

Valentina slows the target enemy hero by 70% for 0.5s and gains the ability to cast their **Ultimate**. Casting the enemy's **Ultimate** turns her into the enemy hero's form and inherits their Basic Attack type for up to 12s (her regular skills remain unchanged unless the enemy's **Ultimate** has a **Morph** effect).
The stolen **Ultimate**'s level equals Valentina's own **Ultimate** level, and its cooldown is 120% of the target's (but no lower than 10s).
If the target is a Physical Damage hero, Valentina gains  **(+100% Total Magic Power)** **<1020>** for the duration. This cannot be used on an enemy Valentina.

## Matchups and synergies

**Works well with**: [Carmilla](https://arena-academy.rone.dev/heroes/carmilla.md), [Atlas](https://arena-academy.rone.dev/heroes/atlas.md)

Heroes that can buff or CC such as Carmilla and Atlas to give her more opportunities to deal damage.

**Strong against**: [Hanabi](https://arena-academy.rone.dev/heroes/hanabi.md), [Faramis](https://arena-academy.rone.dev/heroes/faramis.md)

Heroes that lack mobility or burst such as Hanabi and Faramis are suspectible to Valentina's low cooldown skills that provide soft CC and sustained damage.

**Weak against**: [Hayabusa](https://arena-academy.rone.dev/heroes/hayabusa.md), [Natalia](https://arena-academy.rone.dev/heroes/natalia.md), [Hanzo](https://arena-academy.rone.dev/heroes/hanzo.md)

Heroes with gap closers or high burst like Hayabusa, Natalia, and Hanzo.
