How Abrams beats Ivy

Your game plan as Abrams

A bully who wins by refusing to leave. Every fight Abrams takes, he wants to take at shotgun range.

Lane
Walk forward whenever Siphon Life is up and trade through the enemy’s pokes; Infernal Resilience pays you back for the damage you take. Hold Shoulder Charge until they’re near a wall.
Mid game
Roam to the lane with the squishiest pair and charge one of them into terrain. You’re the team’s door-opener on Walkers.
Late game
Seismic Impact is a teamfight starter: land on the backline, stun three, Siphon, let your carries follow. Buy anti-CC so you can’t be kited.

How to beat Ivy

  • 01Kill the connected ally first; Ivy loses half her strength.
  • 02Don’t stand in Entangling Thorns.
  • 03Expect Air Drop onto your backline and keep a stun ready.
