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 Lash
A diver who arrives from the sky and leaves with the enemy’s carry.
- 01Stay under overhead cover; Lash needs a clear line to grapple.
- 02Break line of sight during the Death Slam channel to avoid being connected.
- 03Stun him mid-air; he has few escapes once committed.
Head-to-head
Win the lane: Celeste into Lash
- 01Celeste out-farms Lash by ~19.2 last hits per match. Contest every orb and punish them for walking up to last-hit.
- 02Lash looks for burst windows. Don’t sit in lane at low health, and ping the moment they disappear — they’re hunting.

- 04Your own sustain (Light Eater) wins extended lanes — stay longer than they can.
