Lukas vs Chou: Head-to-Head Analysis (No Items)

Let’s analyze the battle scenario between Lukas and Chou, focusing on their skills, damage outputs, and survivability without using any items.

1. Skill Damage Computation

Lukas’ Skills Recap (from previous analysis):

1. Flash Step → Flash Strike (Enhanced)

   • Damage: $$60 + (125\% \text{ of } 250) = 372.5 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     

2. Flash Combo with 2 Vigor Stacks (Pulverize + Spins)

   • Pulverize Damage: $$300 + (120\% \text{ of } 250) = 600 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     
   • Spin Damage (3 hits): $$3 \times (100 + 50\% \text{ of } 250) = 675 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     
   • Total for Flash Combo: $$600 + 675 = 1,275 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     

3. Shockwave Blast (Initial Blast + 3 Aftershocks)

   • Initial Blast: $$300 + (100\% \text{ of } 250) = 550 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     
   • Aftershocks: $$3 \times [80 + (25\% \text{ of } 250)] = 427.5 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
     
   • Total for Shockwave Blast: $$550 + 427.5 = 977.5 \text{ Physical Damage}$$

Total Potential Damage Output for Lukas:

1. Flash Strike: 372.5
2. Flash Combo: 1,275
3. Shockwave Blast: 977.5

Total Damage:

$$372.5 + 1,275 + 977.5 = 2,625 \text{ Physical Damage}$$

---

Chou’s Skills Recap:

1. Passive Skill: Only Fast

   • After traveling 8 units, Chou's next basic attack deals 180% damage and briefly slows the target by 80%, reducing their physical defense by 10 + 1 * Hero Level for 3 seconds (up to 2 stacks).
   • Assuming Chou is Level 1 for initial calculations: $$10 + 1 \times 1 = 11 \text{ Defense Reduction}$$
     

2. First Skill: Jeet Kune Do

   • Damage: $$\text{Average Damage} = \frac{180 + 280}{2} + (70\% \text{ of } 250) = 230 + 175 = 405 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
   • Can be cast 3 times, with the 3rd cast knocking enemies airborne.

3. Second Skill: Shunpo

   • Damage (Shield):
   $$\text{Damage on Shield} = 200 + (200\% \text{ of } 250) = 200 + 500 = 700 \text{ (Shield, no damage)}$$
   

4. Ultimate: The Way of Dragon

   • First Hit Damage:
   $$400 + (200\% \text{ of } 250) = 400 + 500 = 900 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
   
   • Second Hit Damage:
   $$480 + (220\% \text{ of } 250) = 480 + 550 = 1,030 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
   
   • Total Ultimate Damage:
   $$900 + 1,030 = 1,930 \text{ Physical Damage}$$
   

---

Total Potential Damage Output for Chou:

1. Jeet Kune Do (3 hits): 405 \times 3 = 1,215
2. The Way of Dragon: 1,930

Total Damage:

$$1,215 + 1,930 = 3,145 \text{ Physical Damage}$$

---

2. Survivability Comparison

• Lukas:
  • Gains Resolve and can heal while in Beast Form. His Shockwave Blast offers good burst damage.
• Chou:
  • Gains a shield from Shunpo that absorbs damage and has the potential to reduce Lukas's physical defense significantly.

3. Skill Utility and Crowd Control (CC)

• Lukas:

  • Strong burst damage with crowd control through Flash Combo and Shockwave Blast.

• Chou:

  • Can knock Lukas airborne with his Jeet Kune Do and control the battlefield with his ultimate.

4. Battle Simulation and Outcome Prediction

1. Engage:

   • Chou starts with his Passive and hits Lukas with a basic attack for 180% damage (assumed around 450 damage considering scaling).
   • Lukas responds with Flash Step → Flash Strike, dealing 372.5 Physical Damage.

2. Damage Exchange:

   • Chou follows up with Jeet Kune Do (first cast), dealing 405 Physical Damage.
   • Lukas uses Flash Combo, dealing 1,275 Physical Damage.

3. Chou’s Defense Reduction:

   • Assume Chou's passive applies reducing Lukas’s defense by 11 (considering he has 2 stacks).
   • Lukas's effective damage reduces due to defense, increasing Chou's damage efficiency.

4. Final Attack:

   • Chou executes The Way of Dragon, dealing 1,930 Physical Damage.
   • Lukas then activates Shockwave Blast for 977.5 Physical Damage.

---

Final Health Status

• Chou Total Damage Taken:

$$372.5 + 1,275 + 977.5 = 2,625 \text{ Total Damage}$$

• Lukas Total Damage Taken:

$$450 + 405 + 1,930 = 2,785 \text{ Total Damage}$$

Conclusion: Who Prevails?

• Chou has strong mobility and can effectively reduce Lukas's damage through his passive.
• However, Lukas has a significant burst potential and control skills, making him a formidable opponent.

Overall Outcome:

• Chou's ability to sustain himself with shields and control effects provides an edge in prolonged encounters.
• Conversely, Lukas's burst potential could overwhelm Chou if executed correctly.

In conclusion, this matchup could swing either way, depending on the execution of their skills and timing. Lukas may have a slight edge in burst damage, while Chou has the potential for better control and sustainability.
