How to Play Dolia in Honor of Kings

• Early Game: In the early game, Dolia should focus on supporting her lane partner. Use Ode (Skill 1) to harass enemies and create space for your carry to farm. Wavebreaker (Skill 2) can be used to heal allies and create a safe zone.
• Mid Game: As the game progresses, Dolia’s role becomes more crucial in team fights. Use Celestial Melody (Skill 3) to refresh the cooldowns of your allies’ most impactful abilities. Coordinate with your team to maximize the effectiveness of skill refreshes. Look for opportunities to use Ode in water areas for the knockback and stun effect. Position yourself carefully to protect your carries while providing support.
• Late Game: In the late game, Dolia’s ultimate can turn the tide of battles. Focus on refreshing the ultimates of key heroes like Lu Bu and Xiao Qiao. Use your skills to control the battlefield, knocking back enemies and creating zones of healing with Wavebreaker. Your passive ability allows you to move quickly through rivers, so use this to your advantage for map control and surprise engagements.

Skill Combos:

1. Use Skill 1 (Ode), then Skill 2 (Wavebreaker) as the third sound wave finishes to adjust crowd control range and knockback enemies.
2. When alone, use Skill 1, Ultimate to refresh Skill 1, use Skill 1 again, then Skill 2 for maximum damage and crowd control.
3. For escapes, use Skill 2, Ultimate to refresh Skill 2, then Skill 1 to thwart pursuers.

Dolia Counters in Honor of Kings

Kong Ming	Marco Polo	Lam	Mai

Agile heroes such as Kong Ming and Marco Polo can also pose a challenge by dodging her abilities. When facing teams with burst damage heroes like Lam or Mai, Dolia may find it difficult to protect her carries effectively.

To counter Dolia, focus on disrupting her positioning and preventing her from utilizing water areas. Heroes with silences or stuns can interrupt her skill casts and limit her effectiveness in team fights.
