How Deadman Danny beats Celeste
Marksman vs Mystic
Out-range their spells and poke between casts.
Your game plan as Deadman Danny
A jetpack daredevil who flies over the fight, lands on top of it and takes one enemy for a ride they won’t walk away from.
Lane
Lay Strix Salvo along the lane: the missiles explode when an enemy comes near and mark them, and a charged shot on a marked target deals bonus damage and slows.
Mid game
Chimera Mk1 is your mobility and your engage. Fly in, and when it overheats, dive into enemies to launch them. Miss every hero and you stun yourself.
Late game
Close The Deal grabs one enemy and carries them into the air for heavy damage that is stronger under 50% health. Save it for a carry who is already hurt.
How to beat Celeste
A showman. Celeste’s damage only comes out if you attack her — or stand in the light.
- 01Don’t break Dazzling Trick’s barrier at close range; it silences on break.
- 02Step out of Radiant Daggers’ beam before it forms.
- 03Spread to limit Shining Wonder’s bounces.
