Looking to master the newest mage in Honor of Kings? Mi Yue, released on November 23, 2024, brings a unique blend of sustainability and damage to the battlefield.
After extensive testing across different roles and builds, we’ve put together this guide to help you dominate with this versatile champion.
Mi Yue excels in the top lane with her excellent sustain capabilities. Here are our tested builds:
Semi-Tank Build
Item | Price |
Boots of Dexterity | 710 |
Blazing Cape | 1980 |
Breakthrough Robe | 2160 |
Glacial Buckler | 2100 |
Succubus Cloak | 2080 |
Blood Rage | 2100 |
When to use Semi-Tank Build: This is our most recommended top lane build for Mi Yue. It’s particularly effective when facing sustain-heavy tanks like Dun and Lian Po. The combination of Blazing Cape’s burn damage and your natural sustain allows you to win extended trades. Choose this build when your team already has enough damage dealers and you need to act as a frontline initiator.
Damage Build
Item | Price |
Boots of Dexterity | 710 |
Blazing Cape | 1980 |
Holy Grail | 1900 |
Breakthrough Robe | 2160 |
Golden Blade | 2070 |
Blood Rage | 2100 |
When to use Damage Build: Opt for this build when your team lacks damage output or when facing squishier top laners. The combination of Holy Grail and Golden Blade gives you enough damage to threaten carries while maintaining decent survivability through Breakthrough Robe and Blood Rage. This build is particularly effective when you’re ahead in lane and want to snowball your advantage.
In mid-lane, Mi Yue requires careful itemization to balance clear speed with survivability.
Heavy Magic Damage Build
Item | Price |
Holy Grail | 1900 |
Breakthrough Robe | 2160 |
Golden Blade | 2070 |
Insatiable Tome | 2090 |
Boots of Dexterity | 710 |
Sage’s Sanctuary | 2100 |
When to use Heavy Magic Damage Build: It’s particularly effective against squishy team compositions where you can utilize your gap closer to burst down priority targets. However, be aware that this build makes you relatively fragile, so positioning becomes crucial.
Semi-Tank Build
Item | Price |
Breakthrough Robe | 2160 |
Golden Blade | 2070 |
Boots of Dexterity | 710 |
Blazing Cape | 1980 |
Blood Rage | 2100 |
Sage’s Sanctuary | 2100 |
When to use Semi-Tank Build: This is our preferred mid-lane build against burst mages like Angela and Mi Lady. The extra survivability from Blazing Cape and Blood Rage allows you to survive their initial burst and counter-engage effectively. The build is particularly strong in mid-game skirmishes where you can utilize your sustained damage while being tanky enough to stay in extended fights.
Our jungle testing revealed Mi Yue’s strong potential against semi-tank compositions.
