Wraith King 7.41e Guide
Without current win rate data available, Wraith King remains a reliable mid-game carry with consistent viability across pub and competitive play. His passive Reincarnation mechanic provides unmatched survivability and reduces the cost of mistakes, making him forgiving for learners while still scaling meaningfully into late game through right-click damage.
Building Wraith King centers on acquiring early mana sustain and armor, typically through items like Soul Ring and armor pieces, which let him farm aggressively and participate in fights without resource management stress. Following this foundation, you'll want to prioritize attack speed and damage through standard carry items while maintaining the mana pool that fuels both his farming and his ability to leverage Reincarnation by having the gold to buyback frequently into the mid-game phase.
Wraith King struggles against heavy magic damage teams and kite-heavy compositions that can exhaust his buyback gold before fights end, particularly in games where the enemy team pressures objectives relentlessly and doesn't allow him to secure farm. Additionally, his weakness to silences and disables that prevent him from casting Reincarnation, combined with his vulnerability before obtaining key items, makes early game pressure and ganks his primary weakness, especially from mobile spell-casters.

Position 1 carries are the primary damage dealers who farm efficiently and scale into late-game threats. They rely on farm priority in the safe lane and protection from supports to come online. See the Fundamentals page for the full position breakdown.
Full position breakdown → FundamentalsWraith King should focus on securing last-hits (killing minions for gold) and denying the enemy offlaner in the safe lane while taking minimal risk. The data shows Armlet is purchased around 15 minutes with a 51.3% win rate, so prioritize efficient farming patterns and positioning to avoid unnecessary trades. Avoid extended fights early—Wraith King needs items to be effective, and early deaths waste his resurrection passive.
Armlet completion (15 min) and Relic (17 min, 54.4% win rate) define the first power spike. Once these items are complete, winning Wraith King players tend to rotate into smoke ganks (ambushing enemies with a smoke of deceit consumable) or group for objective pushes rather than continuing to farm passively. The data shows a significant win rate jump at 20–25 minutes (47.1%), indicating this hero thrives when he transitions from farm to teamfight presence with some items completed.
Wraith King's win condition shifts dramatically after 25 minutes, where win rate climbs to 51.7% through the 30–35 min window. In late-game teamfights, he should frontline and initiate with items like Blink Dagger (21 min, 53.5% win rate), using his high armor and health pool to absorb damage while dealing consistent physical damage. The data shows a slight decline after 40 minutes, so closing out games before ultra-late scenarios (60+ minutes) is critical—his win rate drops sharply in 65–70 min games (44.6%).
