Bastion Builds
- Attack Carry
- Bruiser
- Tanky Initiator
Role Initiation, Chaser
Playstyle Bastion is an innate tank and can avoid focus if played sneakily. His spells will allow him to do lots of damage with power and you will be attacking very fast. Find isolated targets and chase them down. Use the synergy of your stun and ultimate to engage, hitting one can be enough. You will still be able to tank plenty of damage so try not to shy away from being aggressive.

Activate to increase movespeed by 80 and to gain unit walking for 3 sec.
Attacks apply 20% movement slow to target. Lasts 2.0 seconds.

Role Initiator, Sustained Magic Damage
Playstyle Bastion can be played as an in-your-face sustained damage dealer. While challenging, this build enables a player to both initiate a fight and deal massive damage to a group of enemies. Timing is key for this build, as you should aim to combo Zidek Charge and The Chosen One.

Role Tank, Initiator
Playstyle This build highlights Bastion's imposing presence to initiate and wreak havoc in team fights. The focus is not on damage, but rather on setting up kills and space for your teammates. When played well, this build will lock down enemy damage dealers and serve as an unstoppable wrecking ball.

Bastion was a slave boy in the Plane of Gael until, in a chance meeting, the mystical Parlance of the Keeper LexiKhan revealed to him his prophetic destiny. That night, he escaped imprisonment with the help of a mystical Zidek dragon named Xander. Now Bastion and Xander fight in the Trials, helping to raise up the Army of Light and warning others of the coming darkness.
