There are currently two playstyles for Sora. The first is as a Tank to execute crowd control, focusing on defensive equipment. The specific equipment selection depends on whether the opponent's output leans toward Magic or Physical damage. The second playstyle is as a Jungler, with CD-reduction and DMG-boost equipment. Below, we provide two recommended build for each playstyle.
Stacking cooldown reduction allows Sora to rotate skills and tranform him into Thunder form in each teamfight. All equipment as follows brings +10% CD reduction to Sora.
|
Ice Hunter's Mageic Boots |
The only boots contain the effect of CD Reduction. Choose Ice Retribution to deal real damage. |
|
War Axe |
War Axe gives countinuous damage boost. It applies the effect of CD reduction as well as physical damage boost. An excellent choice for early game. In addition, Sora with axe can deal higher real damage. |
|
Hunter Strike |
This weapon not only boosts physical damage and reduces cooldown, but also strengthens the Retribution and gains Physical Penetration. After purchasing it, Sora's power is greatly improved who can easily solo an enemy. |
|
Brute Force Breastplate |
It is ATK-DEF hybrid armor that improves Sora survivability and Movement speed. Sora can quickly rotate skills thanks to its both normal and unique abilities. |
|
Queen's Wings |
With Queen's Wings, Sora deals higher damage with lower HP. Besides, when HP drops below 40%, Sora gains 30% damage reduciton and reduces skills cooldown by 2s, enabling him to morph into Thunder form again! |
|
Malefic Roar |
Malefic Roar purely increases overall damage output. At late stage, the enemies with higher HP and Physical DEF are difficult to defeat. So, this weapon optimizes your strategy via offering high Physical Penertration. |
Sora as Tank needs higher HP and DEF to execute CC and strive for more advantages for team.
|
Tough Boots |
Tough Boots make Sora resilient. He can counter crowd control because the boots reduce CC and Slow duration. |
|
Oracle |
Oracle increases both Physical and Magic defense. Its unique passive enhances Shield and HP regen by 30%, building a extremely tanky Sora. |
|

Guardian Helmet |
Guardian Helmet, the best match for Oracle, enables Sora to restore HP after 5s out of combat. The higher HP and damage taken he has, the quicker HP regen performs. |
|
Blade Armor |
Blade Armor greatly enhances Physical DEF and Crit reduction. The core usage of it lies in its unique passive. When equipped, each time Sora receiving basic attack deals equal to 30% damage to the attacker. |
|
Athena's Shield |
This weapon improves HP regen and Magic Defense. It is an outstanding armor to tank Mage or heroes dealing Magic damage, making Sora an omnipotent tank to both Magic and Physical damage. |
Now, you should be clear on your desired playstyle and equipment build. Below are the recommendations for Emblems and Battle Spells.
Sora as Jungler: Swift, Festival of Blood, Killing Spree
Sora as Tank: Inspire, Bargain Hunter, Concussive Blast
Retribution: It is inevitable for Jungler.
Flicker: Torrent form with Flicker can control the enemies in a distance (Use skills and Flicker simultaneously).
Players can experience and learn Sora in Hero Training since his operation is relatively complex. Furthermore, you should take care of the synergies of skills: casting all regular skills beform using ultimate. Upon entering Thunder or Torrent stage, the skills are refreshed. To maximize Sora, you can learn following playstyles based on differente build and Battle Spells.
Playing Sora as a jungler, you need to pay attention to that he can only generate Cloudstep by attacking enemies or summons. This playstyle relies on his Thunder Form, because only in that form can he stack Cloudstep quickly with skill rotation. In other words, before you unlock your ultimate, you are very easy to catch and kill in the jungle.
Early Game: Revolve around farm jungle creeps, level up and gain economy. Unlock ultimate ability as soon as possible.
Mid Game: Sora has powerful DPS in mid game. You should solo the enemies, find out the timing to catch the low-HP enemy or lurk the enemy. Make sure you have EX to deal with the enemy. Once your Ult ends, you become weaker and require running away. If you have an economy and level adavantage, you can try to kill single target in base form. During teamfights, you must observe battlefield and get close to the enemy backline to instantly eliminate opponents.
Late Game: Sora's burst damage is terrifying who can eliminate an enemies with a single combo. However, if the adversaries has also farmed, you need to seize the opportunity when the enemy is exposed, quickly beat him down, and retreat.
Sora as a tank is usually played in the Clash Lane. Building defensive equipment allows Sor to continuously execute crowd control, while his attack power is not low. This is also his mainstream playstyle. Therefore, this strategy leans more toward transforming into the Torrent form.
Early Game: Stably level up and accumulate economy. After unlocking Ultimate skill, attack the enemy and transform into Torrent form or Thunder Form according to the opponent's hero.
Mid Game: Participate in more teamfights and use your skills to constantly wear down the enemy. If the opportunity arises, transform into Torrent form, immobilize opponents, and allow your teammates to focus fire. Furthermore, step forward and suppress the enemy, since your HP is high enough, you don't need to fear being instantly eliminated.
Late Game: Defend your turret as Torrent form. The Torrent form can push enemies out of their or your turret's range, allowing teammates to concentrate their firepower (Drag the enemies together and throw the out of turret's range). Assault the enemies as Thunder Form. High-HP enables you to march on and finish enemies.
Sora is an extraordinary hero with two particular form - Thunder and Torrent. He will bring you endless fun thanks to his playstyle and potentials.
