When I first played Novaria it took me a while to notice the stacks because I would focus more on my target but when I saw the stacks and experimented a little I understood how it worked and when I go into a direction I'd use Astral Sphere (2nd) at the opposite so far the max stacks I've gotten is 7
ive recently discovered a bug/effect in where if u use the battle spell sprint while shooting ur seconds skill ur stack is able to exceed that and is able to get 8-9 stack
A beginner's tip from fellow beginner: You can also use the skill 2, to go to designated area of the map from the base OR escape approaching enemy and hide/go through the walls to avoid getting caught
Thank you, i’ve noticed this trick when i first read her skill description. You’re the first content creator who actually mentioned it. But, you shouldn’t ALWAYS use it for damage, since it’s also useful to check bushes and to escape
I don't read description TvT people say those who don't read are stupidly playing the hero. And I'm not proud to say, I am that stupid lmao. I also just learned recently that Cecilion also get stack when hitting enemy hero, I've been playing him for almost a hundred times now.
I honestly never knew about this till someone pointed out, I thought it really was just when you throw it, great to know this now I know why I tickle them when i call for the ball as I walk towards it xD
Novaria is probably one of the rarest heroes that aren't stupidly broken on release but also not trash. She's very rewarding once you get the gist of her imo and hecking fun to play (especially if your build is oriented on cdr).
actually she's a kinda trash hero, she's useful if your allies have high mobility to response to her ulti that's all, but in crucial moments or clash she's pretty useless, why? she can't do a thing aside from giving a view of the enemies positions and slowing them down unless you have high mobility allies then she's not much help in clash, why? she doesn't have much dmg + she can't stun your enemies compared to other mages and if you have her beside you during clash then you'll definently die in that clash, I don't ban her in rank but I'm afraid if my teammates pick her because its auto lose well the user gets high score because of ks kills and she just floats around you during clash, she's not annoying as your enemy she's more annoying as your allies.
@@noacier3028 lol, that dmg that I can brush off or dodge easily? she's useless during clash all she's doing is steal the kill or watch till you died in clash she's pretty useless especially in late game.
@@lwoklidfr lol did u play her I don t think so In late game she is a monster I can barely one shoot with her And in clash first skill deal lots of damage second skill can be play to if u not bad If u do 0 damage in clash u just bad
@@lwoklidfr also u have to be good for touch enemies and being far from enemies and in this way u can touch enemies Her ult also is very useful in team fight for use the secon skill on 2 or 3 hero at the same time
I already tried her on practice and its true, her limit is 10 but its very hard to do if you more away from it and my only problem is that her hitbox is small even if you used your ult its still the same hitbox as franco like her hitbox as more area on the left than the right side
Simple tip about hit boxes and getting stacks Hit box is centered around a unit's foot That's the reason why you're more likely to hit the enemy on their right side than the left Due to the camera angle, it tricks us to aim for the body For better understanding, try to aim at their foot's shadow And about getting more stacks, try to move inside obstacles as you move away because it gives more movement speed when you're inside an obstacle, that way you can move further before the sphere catches up to you, getting you more stacks
A beginner's tip from fellow beginner: You can also use the skill 2, to go to designated area of the map from the base OR escape approaching enemy and hide/go through the walls to avoid getting caught
just keep using your ultimate. You may not him them but it will still help your allies land their skills. Plus the slow which is really nice for chasing enemies and saving your team.
Well some things I tried on my own while playing with novaria, hope it helps others: Early game: I'd buy the basic boots then go with elegant gem for the Regen when lvl up, after that mana boots. In the early game I hardly return to base thanks to element gem and mana boots. Use first and 2nd skill to clear minion waves and immediately roam to the side lanes. It's good if you are able to assist or get a kill, but the main Objective is to assist and gain more golds from the side lanes by sharing their minion waves. U will realise that back and forth, ur gold will be the top of the team. Besides that, once u have cleared the minion wave, u can utilize ur 2nd skill and check the enemy buff for vision and if u spot the enemy jungle doing their buff, u can cast ur 1st skill to haress them and even use ur skills and see if u can ks their buff. Even if u fail to steal their buff, haressing them to low HP is alr very good so that they cannot gank the lanes or take any objectives Mid game: after getting clock of destiny, I will continue to bug another elegant gem because the way I use novaria, she will gain lots of exp and gold. Her damage will spike once clock of density and lightning is done. Elgin mentioned about buying holy crystal, but personally I will buy genius wand because it goes well with the first skill. Upon casting second skill, don't release it just yet. Utilize the wall phasing advantage, use it to close up to the enemy and cast ur 1st skill to wear them down and if u bought genius, it helps to lower their magic def as well. It helps to maximize ur 2nd skill damage as well Late game: well just repeat the same things as mid game, once u have gotten genius and divine, ur damage is basically disgusting, so just keep using 1st and 2nd skill to bush check and keep poking enemies from a safe distance. Don't hesitate to use ur ult to check for enemy when they are not around the mini map. Always remember to utilize ur 2nd skill wall phasing ability, use it to get close enough to cast ur first skill on the enemy, then 2nd phase 2nd skill to maximize damage. Do this, and u can solo any squishy heroes. It also helps to escape ambush by delaying ur 2nd skill cast. Always prioritize on hitting the backline because even if u didn't manage to kill, lowering their hp will help to make them retreat so that in the teamfight ur enemies will have 1 less teammates. That's it for my own experience with the hero novaria, I hope it helps anyone who plays her My build through out the game: basic boots > elegant gem > mana boots > clock of destiny > elegant gem > lightning > genius wand > divine or bloodwing based on enemy composition > once reach lvl 15 sell the extra elegant gem and get the last item
i think they should optimize the ult like when the 2skill is on cooldown then she ults it resets the seconds skill cd but only ones so that novaria can one shot maybe two shots 😅
She is decent and balanced in my opinion, I hope they don't nerf her or never experiment on her from now. Basically moonton should not touch her and do add less in changes as she is perfectly fine character

It's ridiculously hard to get a kill using Novaria. But it is what it is. She's suits better as a support mage than she is a pure mage, great for poking enemies from afar.
In my opinion, Novarnia is the new best hero they brought into the game for a very long while. I didn't get too much experience with her, but from what I had: She's very fun to play, isn't oppressive or frustrating to face, has a high skill ceiling, and seems balanced as of right now. My rank is Mythic, by the way, but that's just my own experience and opinion about her. I don't think she should be adjusted quite yet, but if they end up buffing her the one thing that I think will be fitting is increasing her 2nd skill base damage and reducing its magic power scaling so she would be more free to take more defensive options without sacrificing damage. But I don't think they should buff her yet, I think she's very good right now, that's just what buff I would like to see if they end up doing so. I wouldn't want them buffing her magic scaling so she could oneshot more easily, that would just ruin her.
Yes, she is useless without a team in front of her, u do zero impact in the game. U just snipe ks the 10hp someone else left like that. Her minion clear is worst than yve and can't even 1 v 1 in a lane. Late game everyone has lifesteal and the 2k u did to them is just a scratch they can recover in 2 secs
@@lenaotaku5905 Still, especially when having a good team, she is probably One of the strong mages, but the fact that she's more dependent on her team than other mages makes her a less ideal pick in solo queue. But I really like playing her nonetheless.
@@lenaotaku5905 I tried Selena lately, and I've gotta disagree with you. Selena's playstyle relies getting a connection with abyssal arrow (enhanced by the 1st skill) and then killing the stunned target. That makes her much stronger in terms of who can score more kills, especially if the target is isolated or a squishy hero. Her strengths are the stun, more damage, and a more flexibility with her combo, which allows her to guarantee the target you hit with your 2nd skill dies. In that aspect, landing her 2nd skill is more rewarding than getting a snipe with novarnia, due to the fact that usually you would be able to kill the target. But Selena has the disadvantage of having a worse projectile - abyssal arrow is much slower than Novarnia's skill 2, and especially in higher ranks it gives the enemies more time and opportunity to react. Another disadvantage is that Selena needs to get closer to the enemy in order to actually finish them off, which can be dangerous and might lead to situations in which you aren't able to reach the maximum damage you can deal with your combo. Moreover, to to this and the fact that her skills are mainly single target focused, Selena struggles in teamfights. Finally, Selena is actually a hero that has a very hard time farming, which is probably a reason she is a very popular roamer, but nonetheless that's a disadvantage compared to Novarnia. As for Novarnia, since I already touched her weaknesses and strengths, I'll just sum them up shortly: Disadvantages over Selena: lower burst damage potential, dependant on teammates (only 2 main ones, but those are very big) Advantages: easier to snipe, doesn't need to get close to the enemy, less situational and quite strong in teamfights. As for mobility, I'm not sure which one is superior? Although they use them differently, since Novarnia mainly uses her mobility to keep distance and protect herself from enemies, and Selena uses her mobility to get close to the target in order to finish off her combo
@@alonkob2127 Bro novaria can't secure her target. She hits with her 1st skill to poke them and then do 2k with her snipe and the enemy either escapes or someone from the team hunts them down. She can't 1 v 1 more than half of the mid laners right now. Her snipe only ks. She is a moving flameshot. Everyone can equip flameshot and with practice if someone runs away u can aim and kill him. Aka novaria ability useless. With almost any other mage u can have better aoe, stun and burst dmg. Why pick novaria? Vision? Thats the tanks job not urs.
I thought novaria was weak and useless but i carry the game with novaria..... she's very powerful with dire hit and can one shot marksman late game 🔥🔥🔥
I feel if you like playing high risk high reward prediction heroes you’ll like her a lot. Eg franco, Selena, Beatrix If you can really predict enemy movements, she’s going to help you rank up a lot easier. Just make sure the enemy doesn’t have any dive in junglers like ling haya bene or lance or else you’ll struggle w finding the perfect positions in teamfights
I honestly think her ult needs a buff. I know vision is a game changer but looking at the current meta, a lot of heroes already offer that utility (yss, aldous, etc). The best buff for her I think is an "empowered" state of her skills upon the activation of her ult, kinda like xavier. Empowered 1st skill could be an increase in circumference or maybe a faster burst. Her empowered 2nd could be an increase in travelling distance of her sphere or maybe an instant 10 stacks. The main problem is her ult. It's just, meh. They definitely need to add something to it, 75% slow, damage, just something.
Fun fact: When she was in advance server. When you casted her ult her 2nd skill will reset it's cooldown and when you got a kill her 2nd skill wpuld reset aswell. It's a shame they took it away
She's fun to play for me bcs i like playing annoying heroes. She can steal buff and creeps from the enemy jungler in a safe distance. When aldog is ulting u, just pass true the end of the map. She's a flying ward. SHE'S A FLYING FLAMESHOT and great at securing OUR KILLS
Thank you for this Elgin. I get mvp when playing novaria. i am just confused sometimes because the target is far but the damage is less. I always summon the sphere in front of me. 🤣🤣🤣
@@markmercado5077 this true, she dies to joy so easily tis just sad, shes fun tho but if enemy has a ling or fanny that knows who to aim novaria is just food
@@atokaswu7911 positioning is one thing. but if the skill cap of a hero is very low, you cant do anything. if you compare pharsa and novaria pharsa is gold tier and novaria is bronze. its okay if you miss pharsas skills because of the low cooldown, but if you miss novarias skills you have to wait for a long time to deal damage. also the summoning animation of the sphere is way too slow, they should increase that a little
I feel like she still doesn't have alot of damage her main damage is her second skill yet it has a cd of 5 second and if you build cd items 45% its on 4 not really good for damaging tbh specially her utl i wish when enemies get hit by her ult they get a debuff like take 15% more damage from novaria or something
its funny cuz i tried the same rapid boots and 5 windtalkers when testing novaria, basically if you wanna get ur 2nd fast just walk towards it as the downtime wont be as long ie trying to hit someone that is recalling but in general use ur 2nd away from the place you're trying to go to to maximize ur dmg. Regardless though this hero may seem op anyone who played novaria against a semi decent ling or joy would understand why this hero isnt super op in rank
She's stronger than we think she can give visions and at the same deal a huge damage plus you can use your ultimate to help your team mates when they're chasing an enemy b'coz of slow effect and increase the hit box of an enemy hero.
Although my first experience with her is that she's on the enemy side and it's bothering especially when we try to gank someone and she uses her ultimate and our plan will fail but other than that she's alright as a support for vision and a damage dealer.
The stack can actually gain stack even after firing... it'll increase while summoning and until it hits enemy... i noticed that first time i played her in training mode
Yep I've already figured this out and thus i have incorporated blood wings, ice queen wand and genius wand in my build to increases movement speed along eith holy crystal and divine glaive for extra damage
Even at 10 stacks, her damage is still pretty underwhelming. Even in the late game, when enemy has built magic defense items her damage is a small poke.
It is much Better if she will Have a 2 2nd Skill when using Ultimate for her to deal a massive Dmg like For exampe every Time she cast ult her 2nd skill will be having a Stack of 2 for her to throw 2 Meteorites ♥︎
@@4EverAfter4 Thats the thing, her only ability is to snipe people from afar. And she is not even good at that, pharsa does way more damage and has cc while novaria only has movement and vad poke damage.
@@nt0027 bro her ultimate is also broken if built with cdr items. I think novaria is more of a utility/supp with poke rather than a burst mage like pharsa
@@4EverAfter4 yea she is more of a support then a mage. Her ult is probably her most powerful ability as it can give alot of vision and is very useful in the higher ranks.
I my opinion, she is more fit to be a roamer like Selena, her ult can do the job of a tank (giving vision) and she can finish the low hp ennemy with his high range, also the scaling of the magic power is pretty bad, most of the damage is from the basic damage or her skill and passive so Novaria don't really need to get her item fast, btw you can also replace the holy cristal by the floating time for giving more vision to your team mate and spam your spell a little more.
People always argue that she can just use her 2nd skill but what they don't notice is that her 2nd skill is used offensively as well. So once she used that offensively, that's the time to close in to her and kill her. Maybe burn a flicker but that doesn't matter, she can't engage on a 1v1.
@@n317 exactly super easy to kill and I just use ice retri on her to slow her she’s a sitting duck. In my opinion using her is actually throwing the game unless you are in a 5q and can utilise her properly with the right team comp.
It's better if you build atleast 2 Wand items for movement speed, and moving inside obstacles for more movement speed I abuse that mechanic by moving through the corner of the map
Whenever she says "Come to me" I felt that

When I first played Novaria it took me a while to notice the stacks because I would focus more on my target but when I saw the stacks and experimented a little I understood how it worked and when I go into a direction I'd use Astral Sphere (2nd) at the opposite so far the max stacks I've gotten is 7
And is this video I learned that moving through walls or shooting inside walls increase the stacks
If u run her with lou yi u able to have 10 stack. My max stack is 9 and idk how I did it cause I wasn't paying attention at all
Max ive done was 9
i noticed it in advance server and did what elgin did ever since
ive recently discovered a bug/effect in where if u use the battle spell sprint while shooting ur seconds skill ur stack is able to exceed that and is able to get 8-9 stack
Novaria is an excellent mage with roam potential especially with dire hit
Its like mage built diggy only with long range sniping ability
and it's so easy to harass enemy marksman when passing through walls
Bad thing is if your team don't have tanky hero it be hard late game

Salamat sa tip bro fav hero ko ngayon to hahaha ang saya mang bira sa malayo
I honestly think her ult needs a buff. I know vision is a game changer but looking at the current meta, a lot of heroes already offer that utility (yss, aldous, etc). The best buff for her I think is an "empowered" state of her skills upon the activation of her ult, kinda like xavier. Empowered 1st skill could be an increase in circumference or maybe a faster burst. Her empowered 2nd could be an increase in travelling distance of her sphere or maybe an instant 10 stacks. The main problem is her ult. It's just, meh. They definitely need to add something to it, 75% slow, damage, just something.
Fun fact: When she was in advance server. When you casted her ult her 2nd skill will reset it's cooldown and when you got a kill her 2nd skill wpuld reset aswell. It's a shame they took it away
Buy ice queen. Ult will be super annoying then for enemies who aren't so mobile
Flameshot: *YOU TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME*
Novaria: *who are you?*
the only problem with her is the very slow camera turn back after the zoom out effect
Developer now he's know this meta belongs to long range 👍
Ok... But why is my novaria skill effect are so different from you guys??? Like wth it's not on low graphics it's just different effects???!
it took me long enough until i notice about the stacks on her 2nd skill
Nays❤❤
My god.. i played her 4 times already and didn't notice that buff icon 😶
That was actually so helpfull and really well represented. Thank you
It was really helpful thnq ❤
Its so satisfying when skill B hits the target lol!
Oh so that's why her magic scaling is so little, because she has her way to increase her damage.
Novaria has the best walking and running animation. Hi Valentina keep up lmao
Now I know. Great tips. Thanks
I used her as a roamer (yes, I'm a human ward) and yet my teammates laugh at me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Her ultimate is a very roamer friendly, it provides vision especially enemies hiding in the bushes
Novaria : Come to me!!
That's what she said
Thanks for the info Elgin😊👍🙏
So, basically she's amazing with balls. Nice
playing noveria is lowkey ASMR tho
Thank you brother for the explanation
She's fun to play for me bcs i like playing annoying heroes. She can steal buff and creeps from the enemy jungler in a safe distance. When aldog is ulting u, just pass true the end of the map. She's a flying ward. SHE'S A FLYING FLAMESHOT and great at securing OUR KILLS
So it's basically Zoe Q. Thanks for the tip
Another hero to feed Harley 🔥
so this is what you feel when you use "selena map larger Cheat thingy"
its so wide open
Thank you so much elgin❤️
Thank you for this Elgin. I get mvp when playing novaria. i am just confused sometimes because the target is far but the damage is less. I always summon the sphere in front of me. 🤣🤣🤣
I hoped to see the first novaria.
They changed the skill where it would stick to an enemy hero and reveal them.
But still this one's very op too
lmao she is not op. you can play her in lower ranks as a mage but if you use her as a mage in higher ranks she is close to being useless
@@markmercado5077 all about positioning when you're playing squishy heros.
@@markmercado5077 this true, she dies to joy so easily tis just sad, shes fun tho but if enemy has a ling or fanny that knows who to aim novaria is just food
@@atokaswu7911 positioning is one thing. but if the skill cap of a hero is very low, you cant do anything. if you compare pharsa and novaria pharsa is gold tier and novaria is bronze. its okay if you miss pharsas skills because of the low cooldown, but if you miss novarias skills you have to wait for a long time to deal damage. also the summoning animation of the sphere is way too slow, they should increase that a little
@@atokaswu7911 positioning is useless against ling, joy, lancelot, natalia, and all heroes who can instantly attack the backline
its my new main in mythic no one can counter me ,they can't find me ... wall pass give it a great advantage
Tq for the tip Elgin because I say novaria was weak and also feeling like I was support
Novaria is being used as a mage but her ultimate is like for a roamer.
I mean to be fair a certain other hero Luo Yi also has a weird ultimate so eh, pretty okay I guess
She should be a support/mage because everytime i use i have like 20 assist per game
0:25 turn on cc it's hilarious😂😂😂
Every 5 second novaria:
Come to me..
Shine for me..
Pov:a sniper mage is going to tease everyone because of her 2nd skill
She seems like a good support mage
💯
Novaria's 2nd skill reminds me, one of Zoe's skill.
Ikr no surprised
Same lol
Hmm, i like that flame shot to slow them down then 2nd skill.👍
I have 13matches in ranked. This guide really helped me
I feel like she still doesn't have alot of damage her main damage is her second skill yet it has a cd of 5 second and if you build cd items 45% its on 4 not really good for damaging tbh specially her utl i wish when enemies get hit by her ult they get a debuff like take 15% more damage from novaria or something
Novaria: Come to me.
Me: Ambatukam.
its funny cuz i tried the same rapid boots and 5 windtalkers when testing novaria, basically if you wanna get ur 2nd fast just walk towards it as the downtime wont be as long ie trying to hit someone that is recalling but in general use ur 2nd away from the place you're trying to go to to maximize ur dmg. Regardless though this hero may seem op anyone who played novaria against a semi decent ling or joy would understand why this hero isnt super op in rank
I did notice the stack when I aim the orb behind her and so I keep doing it to deal more damage.
The most fun mage to use my opinion when she hit s2 and kill the enemy damn satisfied
When Novaria say "Come to me", my mind plays dirty 🤫🤭😒🙄😩😈
thank u now I understood her skill
novaria is the best for KS 🥰🥰
KS = Kill Securing
She's stronger than we think she can give visions and at the same deal a huge damage plus you can use your ultimate to help your team mates when they're chasing an enemy b'coz of slow effect and increase the hit box of an enemy hero.
Shes not that strong but her utility is great... Just that you have to waste your shoots for vision and her ult range isnt as long as I would like
Although my first experience with her is that she's on the enemy side and it's bothering especially when we try to gank someone and she uses her ultimate and our plan will fail but other than that she's alright as a support for vision and a damage dealer.
The stack can actually gain stack even after firing... it'll increase while summoning and until it hits enemy... i noticed that first time i played her in training mode
Elgin already explained it. Watch it again
Example in mid lane if she use her ulti then hit mid torret to the bushes near blue buff if an enemy is hiding they will get hit by the torret..
lol what you saying bruh. your words are jumbled up
Thanks s video. May ntutunan ako.
Yep I've already figured this out and thus i have incorporated blood wings, ice queen wand and genius wand in my build to increases movement speed along eith holy crystal and divine glaive for extra damage
Did they nerf her? Coz I can’t get the vision of enemy if they’re far even if they’re within reach of my 2nd skill
Even at 10 stacks, her damage is still pretty underwhelming. Even in the late game, when enemy has built magic defense items her damage is a small poke.
It is much Better if she will Have a 2 2nd Skill when using Ultimate for her to deal a massive Dmg like For exampe every Time she cast ult her 2nd skill will be having a Stack of 2 for her to throw 2 Meteorites ♥︎
Her sniping capability is already op. She would be broken if her dmg is increased
@@4EverAfter4 Thats the thing, her only ability is to snipe people from afar. And she is not even good at that, pharsa does way more damage and has cc while novaria only has movement and vad poke damage.
@@nt0027 bro her ultimate is also broken if built with cdr items. I think novaria is more of a utility/supp with poke rather than a burst mage like pharsa
@@4EverAfter4 yea she is more of a support then a mage. Her ult is probably her most powerful ability as it can give alot of vision and is very useful in the higher ranks.
Thank you for information 🤠
Novaria: "Come to me!"
Me: wtf
Meanwhile Mobacry started crying meta where he cries Moonton to change the rules for him.
Oooh so that's why I get different stack. I notice it's always four but got no stack sometimes lol
HAAAAAA!?
DAYUM....
All I know is unga bunga pew pew pew.
Hehe Bwoi
Thanks for the info
Wish ulti has damage too so i can use ice wand 😆
to get max stack is easy, just recall and use home base mov. speed boost to go to the middle and attack the enemy mage in the middle..
I my opinion, she is more fit to be a roamer like Selena, her ult can do the job of a tank (giving vision) and she can finish the low hp ennemy with his high range, also the scaling of the magic power is pretty bad, most of the damage is from the basic damage or her skill and passive so Novaria don't really need to get her item fast, btw you can also replace the holy cristal by the floating time for giving more vision to your team mate and spam your spell a little more.
I haven’t lost a single ranked game vs her. She’s so tasty and easy to kill.
People always argue that she can just use her 2nd skill but what they don't notice is that her 2nd skill is used offensively as well. So once she used that offensively, that's the time to close in to her and kill her. Maybe burn a flicker but that doesn't matter, she can't engage on a 1v1.
@@n317 exactly super easy to kill and I just use ice retri on her to slow her she’s a sitting duck. In my opinion using her is actually throwing the game unless you are in a 5q and can utilise her properly with the right team comp.
Novaria : "come to me"
This guin : " Yes mom"
I think 1st and 2nd skills are okay, but her ulti maybe need to add something, either to add damage or change slow to knockout effect.
❤❤❤❤❤thanks youuu mannn
Omg didn't even knw this😅
I guess now i can increase my damge now😂
I hope she won't get nerfed like Pharsa.
First🔥
I discover a trick for her if she hit thier team torret with her ultimate the torret range will expand.
The last dialogue tho, is another version of telling him he is stupid😂
It's better if you build atleast 2 Wand items for movement speed, and moving inside obstacles for more movement speed
I abuse that mechanic by moving through the corner of the map
I screwed because u released this video...im about to get one shot.
