Natan is a marksman built around light-themed abilities and unusually strong mobility for the role, giving him a playstyle that feels more active and aggressive than the typical carry. Where many marksmen are defined by how well they kite and hold their ground, Natan is defined by how often he can reposition, close gaps, and dictate where a fight happens rather than reacting to it — a natural pick for players who want a carry that plays more like a duelist.
Role and playstyle
Natan farms the gold lane like any marksman, building up his damage and item power through the early game before becoming a core source of damage in fights. His kit revolves around light-based projectiles and dash-style mobility skills that let him weave in and out of combat range far more freely than most carries can manage. This gives him more agency in fights: rather than relying entirely on his team to create openings and peel for him, he can create some of that space himself by repositioning aggressively, closing distance on a vulnerable target, or escaping a bad situation under his own power.
Strengths
Natan’s standout strength is self-sufficiency. His mobility lets him find good angles and disengage from danger without leaning as heavily on teammates as a more stationary marksman would, which makes him more resilient against dive compositions and less reliant on perfect peel. That same mobility also lets him chase down retreating targets that a slower marksman would simply lose, adding a layer of kill pressure most carries don’t have.
Weaknesses
The tradeoff is that Natan’s mobility tools consume resources and cooldowns that a more traditional marksman would spend purely on damage, meaning his raw output can lag behind a pure damage-focused carry in a straightforward, uninterrupted fight. His aggressive positioning style, if misjudged, can also put him in more danger than a marksman who plays more conservatively from range — the same mobility that lets him make plays can lead him into overextending if not used carefully.
Build direction
Natan’s itemization follows standard marksman fundamentals: early attack speed and sustain to farm efficiently, transitioning into physical damage, attack speed, and critical strike items as the game progresses. Because his kit already supplies mobility, his build doesn’t need to compensate with additional movement items — the priority is converting his repositioning advantage into damage, so items that boost overall attack output tend to pay off more than heavily situational picks. Defensive items are worth adapting in based on whichever enemy threats are punishing his aggressive positioning most in a given match.
