Passive - Fragmented
Fragmented is the hardest part of
Osiris's kit to understand. It gives 2% damage mitigation for every stack, totaling in an insane
16% damage mitigation. Abusing this and spamming as many abilities in a fight will give an amazing amount of protections. Attempt to walk into a team fight with around 6 stacks, so a combo of
Sickle Strike and
Spirit Flail will get you to max. Unless you're just ulting to initiate.
1 - Sickle Strike
This and
Spirit Flail are
Osiris's bread and butter abilities. Comboing them together makes a 40% slow, and if used properly, a
6 second long slow. Properly canceling these abilities is what makes
Osiris an unstoppable boxer. Proper AA cancel chain is:
AA > AA >
Sickle Strike > AA > AA >
Spirit Flail > Loop as necessary
This attack chain makes
Osiris only beatable by few Gods in a 1v1. Use this ability only as poke and boxing, this stops at the first target hit, and the damage scaling is minimal. The main point of
Sickle Strike is control, so use it as a control ability and force people away from you.
2 - Spirit Flail
Besides what's been mentioned above, this is your poke and wave clear. Don't be afraid to use this as poke, as your autos are fantastic clear as well.
3 - Judgement Tether
One of the weirdest abilities in the game,
Judgement Tether is a powerful zoning tool that buffs you and nerfs your opponents. It gives damage and a stun on top of it. It makes anyone tethered to you to run away, allowing you to get extra hits off. Use this to initiate fights as well besides boxing, it makes everyone run in terror.
4 - Lord of the Afterlife
Both your initiation and escape,
Lord of the Afterlife needs to be used properly with forward thinking. If you need to shut down healing, ult on them, if you need a hard initiate, ult, otherwise save it for an escape or securing a kill.
Qin's Sais might not be as effective without penetration but it is still constant damage to all targets, and works very well with your quick attack chain. I would recommend usually if you dont want to build too tanky.
Ichaival is not really a good pick unless you are against hunters in the solo lane, and most of the time people would build Breastplate of Valor to stay in lane more than your opponent. I can see it work if you manage your health pretty well and back off when needed, but definitely a risky pick.
I would say Midgardian Mail is just as situational as Witchblade cause of that passive. Witchblade provides more though in terms of cost and dealing with hunters.
The Playing The Game section is nice and simple although is a little bit of a wall of text.
Nice choice of relics and simple explanations.
Skill order error, ult should be leveled at levels 5 9 13 17 and 20.
I see where the Pestilence note is coming from, but I think it works regardless if they have a group healer or not, because of the stats and cheap price. I did mention that if it isn't in your comfort zone, to get one of the other options. Midgardian Mail is the same thing, but I'll update it for other options as well.
I do agree with the Qin's Sais note and I'll update asap.
Ichaival is a preference item, but I agree.
