Lore & Story
Skills
Wings of Lightning
Kaja's skill damage applies the Paralysis effect to enemy units, briefly slowing heroes or summoned units and reducing their damage by 8% for 5s.
Ring of Order
CD: 5.5Kaja summons a ring of Primal Lightning that expands and returns to him. Enemies hit take 160 (+70% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage and recover 78 HP to Kaja. Healing from subsequent hits is reduced to 33%.
Soaring Wings
CD: 14Kaja dashes to the target area, gaining Control Immunity during the dash. On arrival, he deals 250 (+120% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage, knocking back and stunning nearby enemies for 0.5s, then enters the Soaring state. The Soaring state lasts 6.6s. During this time, he ignores obstacles and gains 15% Movement Speed, but his turn radius is restricted. He can use Basic Attacks while moving, dealing 100 (+25% Total Magic Power) (+ 2% target's Max HP) Magic Damage to surrounding enemies. Upon entering the Soaring state, the cooldown of Soaring Wings is reduced to 4s (unaffected by Cooldown Reduction). Hitting a hero or creep extends the Soaring state by 2.6s.
Divine Binding
CD: 60Kaja hurls a Primal Lightning Lasso at the target area. After a 0.5s delay, all enemy heroes remaining in the area take 360 (+80% Total Magic Power) Magic Damage and are trapped for 2.5s. While active, Kaja can drag the lasso, shrinking its radius and pulling enemies at the boundary along with him (does not interrupt their skills).
Combo Guides
TEAMFIGHT COMBOS
For initiating teamfights, use Kaja's 2nd Skill to soar, use the terrain to reposition. Follow up with his 1st Skill to slow and reduce their damage, then immediately cast his Ultimate and let the team clean up.
LANING COMBOS
In the laning phase, use Kaja's 1st Skill to poke and recover HP. If the enemy engages, use his 2nd Skill to take off, then kite with his aerial Basic Attacks. Kite when attacked, attack when they're out of steam.
Official Counter Analysis
Counters
Kaja does well against carries with no mobility skills, such as Layla, Ixia, and Vexana. Once he flies in and lassoes them, there's no hope of escape.
Countered By
Now, if you're up against Kaja, remember that while his Ultimate can't be Purified, heroes with mobility like Kagura, Yi Sun-shin, and Suyou can still dodge it with a dash.
Good Teammates
He also pairs well with allies with AoE, like Odette, Pharsa, and Ixia. Kaja can hold enemies in place while they pile on the damage. The perfect set!
Matchup Analysis

Kaja is countered by Marksmen or Mages with long range like Layla and Pharsa because the short range of his Ultimate will put him at the mercy of their attacks.

Initiator heroes with crowd control form great synergy with Kaja.
The short costing time of Kajaâs ultimate can stop fast-moving enemies in their tracks.
Kajaâs ultimate will more than likely hit Sunâs doppelganger, rather than sun himself. Martis and Johnson are also not easily controlled, making Kajaâs ultimate rather useless against these heroes.
