Build philosophy
Haya benefits from On-hit, Penetration — match items and runes to kit scaling.
Passive: Spends moon crystals to use skills. When all moon crystals have been spent, her Skill 1 and Skill 2 will enter their cooldowns, and her next Basic Attack is enhanced, dealing extra damage. Skill 1 and Skill 2 apply a Mark on hit. Hitting marked targets again triggers additional effects.
Arcana: Prioritize runes that boost On-hit, Penetration for this hero's passive and skill scaling.
3 presets — switch by draft, lane, or CN meta. Default matches Mid Lane when available.

Who counters Haya?
Haya is most vulnerable to Li Xin, Kaizer, Dun. Draft peel, respect engage range, and adjust items when the enemy lineup can dive or chain crowd control.
