According to him, the main problem that players face when learning the hero is their perceived notion that you have to be fast all the time.

He advises players to prioritize practicality over flashiness, emphasizing the need to land skills effectively rather than mindlessly rushing just to get a kill.

Hoon also underscored the significance of recognizing the hero’s weak early game, cautioning against going for kills before reaching level four.

“You gotta understand, before level four, Gusion is like worse than Nana. So you have to be really, really careful,” he added.

Additionally, he highlighted the strategic use of Gusion’s ultimate ability, Iridescence, in team fights. He suggests that players shouldn’t use it on one enemy, as this could lead to losing the fight.

“Sometimes all you gotta do is use Swordspike and Shadow Slaughter and then the enemy backline will die,” he said.
