PROS & CONS

Skill 1 now provokes the enemy

Versatile character (Can be damage dealer or bruiser)

AoE defense debuff on enemy team + self attack buff

Has built in vigor at the start of battle

Gets shut down by stuns or sleep (can't counter)

Poor defense for a bruiser

Weak against fixed damage or non crit attacks

Tier List Description

[29/7/2023 Update]: The new ML Ken has provoke on S1 and now gains the vigor buff on his passive.

The new ML Ken is a bit better than the old one. The key is that he gains the vigor buff right from the start for 3 turns, giving him enough time to deal damage as long as he survives. The key is to build him bulky enough to not die from burst damage in 1 hit.

His damage output is now a bit better thanks to the change in passive (provides defense penetration), allowing him to counter attack when an ally also receives a critical hit. His skill 1 now provokes instead, which focuses damage on him when he successfully lands it when an ally is attacked.

His skill 3 remains unchanged and can deal AoE damage and inflict decrease defense while increasing his own attack. It is also important to have a team that can help him mitigate enough damage (Aurius, revive, barrier etc.) to ensure he survives any type of burst damage.

As for stats, you want enough health and defense:

  • 16k+ HP
  • 1500+ Defense
  • 250%+ Crit Damage
  • 150%+ Effect Resistance

Crit rate is not necessary as he will have crit most of the time. However, it doesn’t hurt to have higher crit rate. Effect resistance is also a stat mostly for PvP and a gear check versus your opponents. Speed is also not required. Lifesteal set is also a key component in keeping him alive, as long as he is attacking.

 

RECOMMENDED ARTIFACTS

Lifesteal
Best in slot for additional attack and lifesteal when below 50% Hp.
PvP
Secret OP item for ML Ken. Your enemies will pull their hair trying to debuff your ML Ken. If you can get him to 100%+ effect resistance, he rarely gets debuffed.
