Introduction

Hello, I am ThanatosGaming.
This is my Ao Kuang Guide + Build
Ao Kuang is a mage, but most of the people see him as an Assassin, because he can stealth.
Ao Kuang is also a basic attack based god, and he wields a sword... But don't worry, you got stealth, it won't be hard to approach the enemy.

Early Game (Level 1-9)

Here you start out, you should quit contact with enemy gods. Focus on clearing minions. Ao Kuang has a weak early game, which means trying to kill a god will result surely on your death. Well, if your team manages to get someone at under 30% of his HP, if you're level 5 or higher, you should kill him. Stealth, then execute him.
Don't try to kill someone with landing, it will surely be a death for you. Land next to your tower.

Mid Game (Level 10-15)

At this point all 3 rings should be online, meaning you hit very fast.
Try to secure any kill possible, but don't tower dive.
As Loki does, Ao Kuang lacks team fight skills, which means you're good for solo.
Spear of Desolation's Penetration should help a lot against a tank.

Late Game (Level 16-20)

At this point your build should be complete, if you find any enemy alone, you should be able to defeat him. Just watch your back if he calls reinforcements.
If you're questioning yourself if you can solo Bull Demon King, go ahead. I tried it and I got it with over 50% HP left.

Pros/Cons

Pros
Good Damage Late Game
Can Solo BDK
Can solo squishy enemies
Got a stealth
Good Burst
Execution
A MIGHTY SWORD!!!


Cons
Very Weak Early Game
Ultimate can get blocked
Lacks Teamfight Skills
Lacks Minion Clear Skills

The End
