Overall
Gavus enforces three battlefield rules — his entrance can’t be interrupted, allies can’t be hit by non-adjacent enemies freely, and enemy deaths must follow a specific order. Enemies who violate these rules feed him energy. His normals adapt to the flow of battle: when allies are dealing more damage, he focuses attacks on the highest-damage enemy; when allies are losing, he heals and shields the weakest ally instead. He marks the highest-damage enemy as “first,” forcing them to absorb a share of all damage allies take and increasing their damage received. During his entrance, he shields allies based on health deficits and punishes the top-damage enemy with health loss proportional to what they dealt. With his awakening skill active, rule violations grant Gavus magic pierce, and killing the marked enemy triggers a full team-wide heal while refilling his energy for an immediate ultimate.
