Celeste vs Holliday

Mystic vs Marksman

Use spells to force them out of position; marksmen hate being moved.

Your game plan as Celeste

A showman. Celeste’s damage only comes out if you attack her — or stand in the light.

How to beat Holliday

A trick-shooter. Holliday launches you into the air and then shoots you out of it.

• 01Don’t stand near Powder Keg — she can detonate it whenever she wants.
• 02Respect her headshots; she out-duels most heroes who stand still.
• 03Spread so Lasso only takes one.

1. 01Celeste out-farms Holliday by ~13.1 last hits per match. Contest every orb and punish them for walking up to last-hit.
2. 02Holliday out-ranges most heroes. Fight around corners and troopers; step in when they reload or spend their mobility.
3. 03Your own sustain (Light Eater) wins extended lanes — stay longer than they can.
