Abrams vs Mirage

Brawler vs Assassin

You have the health; they have the burst. Make them fight you long — every second past their first combo is in your favour. Buy defensive items early and stay near allies.

Your game plan as Abrams

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

How to beat Mirage

A traveller who keeps fights alive with scarabs and arrives where you least expect.

• 01Interrupt Traveler with damage; it cancels.
• 02Watch for Mirage arriving from nowhere.
• 03Anti-heal against scarab lifesteal.

1. 01Mirage wins the farm by ~8.4 last hits per match. Prioritise safe last hits and denies over trades, and let your lane partner zone.
2. 02Mirage looks for burst windows. Don’t sit in lane at low health, and ping the moment they disappear — they’re hunting.
3. 03Your own sustain (Siphon Life, Infernal Resilience) wins extended lanes — stay longer than they can.
