When to Pick Marksman Emblem
Decision cues for when this emblem beats the alternatives.
Default for every crit-scaling ADC: Claude, Moskov, Wanwan, Beatrix, Granger, Melissa, Clint. The emblem is tuned around steady auto-attack DPS, so any marksman who lives in basic-attack range wants this.
Consider Assassin Emblem instead on true-damage marksmen (Karrie) where penetration matters more than attack speed, or burst marksmen (Brody, Irithel) who don't rely on crit scaling.
