How The Positions in Vainglory Work

Vainglory, the MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) perfected by touch. In vainglory, there are three main positions for your to choose from. The Captain, the Carry, and the Jungler. Let’s learn more about these three positions. Below are pictures of the Halcyon Fold, Vainglory’s 3v3 map. The sides are the teams’ bases. The top is the lane, which is where the Laner stays and farms by killing the minions. Minions cannot enter the jungle. There are six stone walls and what would look like a pit in the very middle. This is the separation between the lane and the Jungle. Here, the Jungler farms by killing the creatures in the jungle camps. Like the lane minions, the jungle creatures cannot venture into the lane. The first position we have is probably the easiest to use, which is the Jungler.

The Jungler’s job is to farm in the jungle until they are level six, so that they can unlock their ultimate abilities. Since the jungle has lots of gold and xp (experience) points to offer, it’s no wonder the Junglers are often the hardest to deal with in a match. Experience points are what you need to accumulate to get to the next level, either to unlock or upgrade the abilities you can use. There is also no rule against wandering into your enemy’s farm and stealing the xp that their jungle camps have to offer . Junglers are great to use as they have both high attack and defense stats (levels, but different from xp levels). A great example of these heroes would be Koshka, a cat-girl who can pin down enemy heroes with a powerful stun and chase down fleeing enemies with ease, but won’t usually have a chance to escape a faster opponent with more health left than her. Another great example of these heroes is Krul, a cursed hero who seems to be able to survive just about anything. The second and slightly harder role is the Carry, or the laner. Their job is to farm in the lane. The way they do this is by killing the enemy minions and destroying the enemy turrets with the help of their friendly minions. The carry has high attack stats, but has very low defense stats. The best carry players can earn over 2500 gold in the first five minutes, simply from efficiently killing the enemy minions. Usually, these heroes are better with lots of range, so that they won’t take as much damage but can dish it out easily.

A great example of these types of heroes is Celeste, a very fragile but powerful mage who has strong area damage and stuns.. Another great example is Ringo, a gunslinger who can boost his movement and attack speed, shoot from a distance and hurl fireballs that will deal burst damage to whoever or whatever it hits. The third, and probably the hardest position to play with is the Captain. The captain’s role is to support his or her allies. They usually start the match by helping their friendly jungler farm, then coming up to the lane either when their jungler has reached level 4 or when their friendly carry needs help. This position is considered the hardest because there are lots of usable items that you need to buy e.g a captain would buy a crucible (one of the upgrades to the reflex block), which blocks negative effects, but you need to tap it to make it work, whereas a jungler would buy a shatterglass (an item that increases ability crystal power, which , which would do its job without any necessary interaction with it.

These heroes are usually low in terms of offense, but are also usually the meat-shields of their teams as they are packed with some of the best health stats in the game. However there is one exception to this. The hero’s name is Lyra. She has low attack stats, like a regular captain, but abnormally low defense stats, making her more difficult to use. A great example of these types of heroes is Catherine. She can have the most defensive stats in the game, thanks to her ability to pile up on them during a match by stunning enemies. Another example is Grace, a paladin who can shield her allies using her abilities and has a massive heal. In short, you should go for the jungler position if you like to do lots of damage, laner if you want to stay in the back line, or captain if you like to aid your teammates. To give you an idea, I usually stick to Lyra, a healing captain who is literally a tool for her team, or Krul, a powerful jungler who can turn the tide of battle in his favour, even with only a sliver of health left.
