How to Play Popol and Kupa

To assist friends in taking down turrets, Popol and Kupa will push lanes and gank opponents. He can hide his traps in bushes to avoid opponents ambushing him. With the appropriate strategy, this combination can defeat any single hero in a fight.

Tactics

Early game (Level 1-7):

• Interfere with your opponent’s lane with your long-range advantage. Do damage from a safe distance without taking any damage. Try to push the turret and use traps around the bushes to get sight when there are no enemies nearby.

Mid game (Level 8-12):

• Popol and Kupa’s gameplay can do quite a bit of damage in the mid-game. Plan a trap in the side lane or mid to get vision around the area. Join team fights with tanks and fighters in front and deal damage from a distance.

Late game (Level 13+):

• Popol and Kupa are great marksmen to fight 1 on 1 in the late game. Keep a good position during team fights; Popol and Kupa’s gameplay can take Lord very quickly.
