Clint Guide: Best Build, Emblem, Skills, Combos and Counters

Clint is a burst Marksman who turns every skill into a piercing, extra-long-range Basic Attack. He wins Gold Lane by controlling spacing: cast one skill, consume Double Shot, then reset before the enemy can reach him. The current top-five Pro Setup sample supports two real routes—ability burst with penetration and a crit-and-range alternative—so the best six items depend on whether Clint is punishing squishy targets or firing through a protected front line.

Clint Skills: Mechanics and Decisions

Double Shot

After every skill, Clint's next Basic Attack within four seconds pierces a line and can critically strike through its Physical Attack scaling.

Use it when

you have just cast a skill and can shoot through the front target toward a carry

Why it works

the empowered shot converts every skill into long-range lane pressure and makes deliberate skill-to-shot weaving Clint's core rhythm

Do not

Do not cast another skill before consuming Double Shot unless moving immediately is safer

Quick Draw

Clint fires five bullets in a fan. Multiple bullets can hit one nearby target, with reduced damage after the first bullet.

Use it when

a target is close enough to take several bullets or a wave and hero line up in the fan

Why it works

close-range overlap gives Clint his strongest repeatable burst and immediately prepares Double Shot

Do not

Do not walk into melee range solely to land all five bullets when enemy control is ready

Trapping Recoil

Clint shoots a net, jumps backward, damages and immobilizes the first enemy hit for 1.2 seconds; a hit cuts its cooldown by 40%.

Use it when

a diver enters your space or one backward hop creates a safe firing lane

Why it works

the immobilize interrupts pursuit while the recoil and follow-up Double Shot restore spacing

Do not

Do not spend it for casual poke when the enemy's main gap closer is still available

Grenade Bombardment

Clint launches a grenade that damages and briefly slows the first enemy hit. He stores up to three charges, gaining one every ten seconds.

Use it when

you can soften a target from range, trigger Double Shot, or keep a chase target slowed

Why it works

stored charges let Clint repeat the grenade-to-empowered-shot pattern without committing Trapping Recoil

Do not

Do not empty all charges before an objective or siege window unless the target is secured

Clint Skill Priority and Combos

Teamfight combo

Grenade Bombardment→Basic Attack→Quick Draw→Basic Attack→Trapping Recoil→Basic Attack

Order: Grenade Bombardment → Basic Attack → Quick Draw → Basic Attack → Trapping Recoil → Basic Attack. Why: grenades soften from distance, Double Shot keeps damage outside normal range, Quick Draw finishes a weakened line, and recoil resets space. Do not: force the recoil step if holding it is the only answer to enemy dive.

Laning combo

Quick Draw→Basic Attack→Trapping Recoil→Basic Attack

Order: Quick Draw → Basic Attack → Trapping Recoil → Basic Attack. Quick Draw starts the burst, the first Double Shot extends the trade, and the recoil both immobilizes and moves Clint away. Do not: step into minion and enemy focus just to overlap every Quick Draw bullet.

How to Play Clint by Game Phase

Five Clint Mistakes That Lose Fights

1. Casting two skills before Double Shot. This discards the passive shot that gives Clint his range and damage identity.
2. Using Trapping Recoil as routine poke. The backward jump and immobilize are often the only answer to a diver.
3. Walking too close for all five Quick Draw bullets. The extra overlap does not justify entering a lethal control radius.
4. Copying Sky Piercer while repeatedly dying. Its execute threshold rewards preserved stacks, not a losing tempo gamble.
5. Emptying every grenade before an objective. Stored charges are Clint's safest way to poke and refresh Double Shot during the real fight.

Current Clint Pro Setups

The five observed in-game builds do not form one mandatory order. Ranks 1, 2, and 4 favor ability burst, penetration, Endless Battle, and a heavy Blade of Despair finish. Rank 3 uses Berserker's Fury, Malefic Gun, and Great Dragon Spear for crit, range, and post-Ultimate movement. Rank 5 mixes early Ambush burst, Rapid Boots, Sky Piercer, and Malefic Gun for rotation and picks. Copy the job of each slot, not only the screenshot order.

Item	Role	Ranks	Buy when	Do not
Blade of the Heptaseas	Physical Attack, HP, penetration, and an Ambush-enhanced Basic Attack after staying out of combat.	1, 5	you can open a pick from fog or long range	Do not buy when constant chip damage prevents Ambush from becoming ready.
Rose Gold Meteor	Attack, attack speed, lifesteal, scaling Hybrid Defense, and a low-HP shield with movement.	1, 2	magic burst threatens to erase Clint before he can recoil	Do not buy when physical penetration is the only urgent problem.
Malefic Roar	Physical Attack with high and defense-scaling Physical Penetration.	1, 2, 4	frontliners or protected carries have meaningful armor	Do not buy when the enemy remains extremely squishy and a faster raw-damage spike is better.
Endless Battle	Attack, HP, cooldown reduction, movement, mana regeneration, and a True Damage Basic Attack after skills.	1, 2, 3, 4, 5	you reliably weave one Basic Attack after every skill	Do not buy when you cannot safely reach a target for the empowered shot.
Blade of Despair	Very high Physical Attack and extra pressure against enemies below half HP.	1, 2, 3, 4	your penetration and safety needs are already covered	Do not buy when survival is required before more damage.
Hunter Strike	Attack, cooldown reduction, penetration, and movement after repeated hits.	1, 4, 5	you need burst plus repositioning in extended trades	Do not buy when fights end before its hit sequence matters.
Tough Boots	Movement, Magic Defense, and reduced crowd-control and slow duration.	2	magic damage or control threatens the lane	Do not buy when physical Basic Attacks are the only real pressure.
Sky Piercer	Adaptive Attack, movement, and a stacking low-HP execute that loses progress on death.	2, 4, 5	your team can build an early kill lead and protect the stacks	Do not buy when the game is even, you are dying, or guaranteed damage is safer.
Warrior Boots	Movement, Physical Defense, and extra defense after taking Physical Damage.	3, 4	the lane and enemy dive are physical	Do not buy when magic crowd control is the larger threat.
Berserker's Fury	Physical Attack, Critical Chance, Critical Damage, and bonus True Damage on Basic Attack crits.	3	you are committing to the crit route and can keep firing	Do not buy when ability burst and penetration are needed earlier.
Malefic Gun	Physical Attack, attack speed, penetration, longer Basic Attack range, and short movement on hit.	3, 5	front-to-back fights reward safer repeated shots	Do not buy when a single ability burst must decide the fight before sustained attacks.
Great Dragon Spear	Physical Attack, cooldown reduction, crit chance, and movement after the Ultimate.	3	Grenade Bombardment will start a chase or repositioning window	Do not buy when you are not building enough crit or cannot use the movement window.
Rapid Boots	High movement, slow reduction, and HP regeneration.	5	rotations and resisting slows matter more than defenses	Do not buy when burst or hard control requires defensive boots.

Clint Counters and Team Synergy

Shorter-range targets Clint can pressure

Moskov and Miya must normally step closer to trade, giving Clint room to trigger Double Shot from outside their comfortable range. Lolita's shield matchup still requires patience: attack from a side angle or wait out the block. Do not turn a range advantage into a close Basic Attack duel.

Burst and dive to respect

Melissa can deny close space, Karrie can pressure through front-line protection, and Fanny can cross Clint's preferred range instantly. Hold Trapping Recoil for the committed entry and change Flicker to Purify only when removable control—not raw mobility—is the decisive threat.

Mobility and protection partners

Rafaela and Angela improve Clint's kiting through speed, healing, shields, and control. Harith draws attention in the same firing area and creates repeated openings. Follow their control from range; do not stand beside them where one area skill hits both damage dealers.

Clint Story

Clint served as sheriff of a quiet Moniyan frontier town and built his reputation on an unmatched quick draw and a strict belief in justice. When Blandy and gunmen tied to Waldo Kane attacked, Clint refused to trade justice for safety. The frightened townspeople removed him and released Blandy, but Clint returned when the gang betrayed them and set the town ablaze. After saving the survivors, he left quietly for the City of Sin, knowing Kane would either be found or come looking for him.

Verdict: Is Clint Worth Learning?

Yes, if you enjoy a Marksman who wins through spacing and deliberate burst rather than holding the attack button. Clint rewards one repeatable rule: every safe skill should create one safe Double Shot. Preserve Trapping Recoil, choose penetration or crit based on the fight shape, and make the enemy cross your firing line before you cross theirs.
