Beginner Starter Build Skill Level: New to arena PvP

Beginner Starter Build

This pre-configured loadout focuses on forgiving spells, clear visuals, and simple rotations so you can learn ET Group B.V. fundamentals without being punished for every misstep.

  • Core spells: Arcane bolt chain, short-range shockwave, basic shield bubble.
  • Playstyle: Mid-range duelling with enough sustain to survive early mistakes.
  • Movement: Use quick dash charges to escape rather than engage; reset fights often.
  • Win condition: Wear opponents down with safe poke, then close with a shielded burst combo.

Starter tip: Keep one defensive spell off cooldown at all times. Spending everything on damage is the fastest way to get deleted in your first few matches.

Intermediate Versatile Build Skill Level: Comfortable with spell combos

Intermediate Versatile Build

This balanced build lets you pivot between aggression and defence depending on the arena, enemy comps, and round modifiers. Ideal for players climbing through mid-tier ranks.

  • Core spells: Fire/ice alternating blast, directional barrier wall, mobility blink.
  • Playstyle: Swap between zoning enemies with walls and punishing overextensions with burst windows.
  • Movement: Blink diagonally across enemy skillshots to stay in threat range while dodging.
  • Strength: No hard counter; can adapt to most elemental matchups.

To see how this build behaves in different arenas, cross-reference with the matchup advice in Game Overview and Arena Strategies.

Elemental Storm Build Skill Level: High APM spell-slinger

Elemental Storm Build

Specialise in rapid-fire elemental spell sequences that overwhelm opponents before they can stabilise. This build rewards precision targeting and cooldown discipline.

Elemental Storm Build layout for ET Group B.V. showing a neon arena with swirling elemental effects.
Elemental Storm focuses on chaining fire, ice, and arcane procs to lock enemies in a constant barrage.
  • Core spells: Fire lance volley, ice shard fan, arcane discharge.
  • Combo route: Ice slow → fire burst → arcane finisher to capitalise on crowd control windows.
  • Movement: Circle-strafe around targets, forcing them through overlapping elemental zones.
  • Weakness: Limited sustain. If the first two rotations miss, disengage rather than forcing trades.

Advanced warning: This build is mechanically demanding. Practise the full rotation in bot matches before queuing ranked Solo or Team play.

Tank & Sustain Build Role: Front-line control

Tank & Sustain Build

If you prefer to outlast and out-position opponents, this build stacks shields, mitigation, and soft control to anchor your team and frustrate hyper-aggressive assassins.

  • Core spells: Overshield barrier, lingering ward totems, short-radius stun pulse.
  • Playstyle: Hold choke points, absorb initiation, and punish overcommits with stuns and knockbacks.
  • Positioning: Stand slightly ahead of your carries, never behind them. Your health bar is a resource.
  • Synergy: Excels when paired with sustained DPS or delayed-burst mages.

Assassin Quickstrike Build Role: High-mobility burst

Assassin Quickstrike Build

Designed for players who live for outplays and split-second eliminations, this build combines gap-closing, invisibility windows, and devastating single-target damage.

  • Core spells: Shadowstep blink, backstab-enhancing enchant, silence dagger fan.
  • Engage pattern: Approach from fog-of-war angles, silence key targets, then chain displacement to deny counterplay.
  • Defence: Your best defence is line-of-sight and cooldown tracking — avoid straight-front duels.
  • Ideal targets: Glass-cannon storm mages and supports caught away from their tank.

Quickstrike tip: Break line-of-sight immediately after a kill. Reset your cooldowns and pick the next target instead of chasing low-value stragglers.

Late-Game Powerhouse Build Phase: Final survival rounds

Late-Game Powerhouse Build

Optimised for the shrinking arenas and chaos of final survival rounds, this build ramps in power the longer the match goes on, converting every upgrade node into overwhelming pressure.

Late-game powerhouse build for ET Group B.V. showcasing an empowered mage in a closing neon arena.
Late-game builds thrive when the arena closes and escape routes vanish — positioning becomes your strongest weapon.
  • Core spells: Scaling beam channel, area denial sigils, ultimate-tier execute.
  • Economy: Prioritise upgrades that boost cooldown reduction and damage amplification over early-round comfort.
  • Phase strategy: Play safe in early rounds; avoid risky trades until your scaling thresholds are online.
  • Endgame loop: Funnel enemies into overlapping sigils, then beam down the highest threat.

Solo Queue Survival Build Mode: Ranked & matchmaking

Solo Queue Survival Build

Solo queue is unpredictable — this build prioritises self-sufficiency, flexible engage tools, and emergency escapes so you can carry even when your team composition is suboptimal.

  • Core spells: Hybrid poke nuke, on-demand heal, emergency displacement dash.
  • Mindset: Play for incremental advantages: third-party weakened fights and avoid 1v3 scenarios.
  • Positioning: Hold high-vision terrain and use environmental covers to break locks and homing spells.
  • Ranking focus: Surviving to top placements matters more than flashy kill counts.

Ranked tip: Track enemy ultimates. Burning your only escape into a fully-charged finisher is the most common cause of solo queue spirals.

Team Synergy Build Mode: Coordinated squads

Team Synergy Build

Built for coordinated parties, this loadout sacrifices a bit of personal damage in exchange for powerful combo setups, shared buffs, and protective utilities that supercharge your allies.

  • Core spells: Team haste aura, amplifying tether beam, shared barrier dome.
  • Combo play: Time your slows and knockups with your allies' ultimates for devastating wombo combos.
  • Communication: Call your cooldown timers and save key spells for objective fights.
  • Best partners: Elemental Storm or Assassin Quickstrike players who can capitalise on your setup.

Recommended Gear Guide

  • Beginner Starter: Auto-heal trinkets and cooldown forgiveness charms.
  • Solo Queue Survival: Emergency revive tokens, stealth activators, and cleanse totems.
  • Team Synergy: Aura-based artifacts that share haste, shield, or regen with nearby allies.

Enchanted Equipment

Enchants allow micro-tuning. Stack stats that reinforce your primary win condition instead of spreading them thinly across categories.

  • Late-Game Powerhouse: Cooldown reduction, ultimate charge rate, and damage amplification.
  • Intermediate Versatile: Hybrid power/resilience with a splash of movement speed.
  • Tank & Sustain: Max health, shield efficiency, and crowd-control duration.
