Hello name is Arcon and i'm an Xbox mid player from the UK who plays mainly Persephone, Nu Wa, Tiamat and Hera.

Nu Wa is a very strong pick for the mid lane with her having lots of burst damage potential. Her main burst comes from her 2 which is her clay soliders as well as her 3 which is shinning metal. This combo of exploding the cley soliders with the 3 provides great CC as it stuns for a breif duration as well as does incredible burst damage. This is also used in tandom with the 1, Mysterious Fog, which does tick damage agaisnt enemies and makes you invisible. This is why the CDR is so important to Nu Wa as it allows you at the late game to get massive burst damage off freaquently. A useful tip to note is that if you align the end of the crossheir on an enemy god then the cley soliders will target them. All the 2 has a range where they will jump/teleport towards an enemy god allowing you to get your combo of 2,3,1 onto someone.

Nu Wa's ult is a good tool to do lots of damage to everyone on the map as it's a global ult and it allows you to finish/steal kills of your teammates. Also, the ult is good for drawing out enemy actives like Aegis which block her ult but would allow your jungler to use that to your advantage. The ult is also good to give the position of the enemy jungler as the ult acts a ward allowing you to see the enemies positions for a breif period. Don't be afraid to use your ult defensivly either as it puts you into the air as you cast it and also moves you forward slightly from the point where you cast it allowing you escape from a gank you didm't expect.

One of Nu Wa's weakness' howver is that she lacks in mobility. Due to her high damage potenial she doesn't have any mobility abilites like a dash or a leap. Her only escape is using her one which does make you invisible and boosts your movement speed, but also makes you easy to track.

Because of the lack of movement mentioned earlier, Nu Wa benifits greatly from buying and placing wards down allowing you to not get suprised by the enemy jungler. These wards will not just benifit you but also maybe your Jungler or ADC as for example you placing wards might enable your Neith player to have line of sight on a low HP target.
