Is Rhino good?
Rhino's kit is built around dashing in and out: he builds Fury on the way in, inflicts Debuffs to gain Physical Resistance, and deals big Trauma Debuff damage the more aggressively he plays. Despair and Resonate both pair well with him since he piles on a ton of Debuffs, and Resonate specifically helps ramp his Physical Resistance even faster.
He's a high-speed, high-commitment champion without much room for error, which is part of why he's D.
Strengths
- Builds Physical Resistance by inflicting Debuffs on the dash in
- Deals significant damage through Trauma Debuffs
- Piles on enough Debuffs to get real value from Despair and Resonate
Weaknesses
- Demands an aggressive, high-commitment playstyle with little room for mistakes
- Playing him passively wastes most of what his kit offers

Physical Resistance
PassiveWhen Rhino inflicts a Debuff, is struck, or Blocks a hit, he gains a 57.69 Physical Resistance Passive for 15 seconds, refreshed when he gains a new one. Multiple Physical Resistances cannot be gained from a single trigger. If struck while under the effect of a personal Unstoppable, consume 5 personal Physical Resistances to reduce the hit damage by 60%. This does not trigger against Special Attack 3. As a Defender, when the Opponent Dodges back, remove 1 personal Physical Resistance. Cooldown: 2.5 seconds.

Max stacks: 5.10+ Physical Resistance: When starting a Dash or Medium Attack, gain an Unstoppable Passive for 1.5 seconds. If struck while this Unstoppable is active, it goes on cooldown for 5 seconds. 15+ Physical Resistance: Rhino becomes Stun Immune while Unstoppable.
Charge!
PassiveWhen Rhino Dashes forwards, he inflicts a non-stacking 5% Taunt Debuff for 5 seconds. As a Defender, he instead inflicts a Breach Debuff for 2 seconds. This Breach will not trigger while already active. Performing a first Medium Attack grants Rhino 1 Fury Passive, and he gains up to 6 more while Dashing forward based on the distance travelled. Each Fury grants 300.3 Attack Rating, and lasts 2. These Furies are refreshed when Rhino starts a Dash, Intercepts the Opponent, or Punishes their Heavy or Special Attacks. These Furies are paused while Rhino is Dashing, and during the Opponent’s Special Attacks. If Rhino starts a Dash while at max Furies, pause them for 2 seconds after the Dash, and inflict a Breach Debuff for 2 seconds. This Breach will not trigger while already active.
