Is Agudo good in Honor of Kings?

Current HOKMeta data lists Agudo as Tier B, with 52.2% win rate and 0.4% pick rate. Agudo is worth playing if your team needs reliable Jungling pressure, but you should avoid blind-picking into Ata, Han Xin without peel or defensive item planning.

How do you play Agudo in teamfights?

In teamfights, Agudo should respect enemy engage range first, then play around the hero's Marksman job: dealing damage, protecting carries, or entering after key control is used. When behind, clear waves and preserve cooldowns instead of face-checking fog.

Current patch decision guide

How to decide if Agudo is the right pick

Pick Agudo if

Pick Agudo when your team needs a Tier B Jungling option and the draft gives this hero enough space to play around core cooldowns.

Avoid Agudo if

Avoid Agudo when the enemy composition directly attacks the hero's main weakness or your team cannot support the Jungling game plan.

Power spikes

First completed core item: check whether the hero can now contest lane or jungle tempo.
Two to three item point: decide whether to group for objectives or keep farming toward the late-game plan.
Final defensive or damage item: adapt to the enemy threat instead of following the build blindly.

Build decision

Start from the recommended build, then adjust based on whether the enemy is forcing burst survival, anti-tank damage, anti-heal, or safer positioning.

Matchup logic

Use the counter page and build compare tool together: first identify the threat, then test whether damage, defense, or utility gives the better answer.

Common mistakes

Following the build without checking the enemy draft.

Taking fights before the first meaningful item spike.

Ignoring wave state and vision before rotating.
