How Drifter beats Lady Geist
Assassin vs Mystic
Mystics are often fragile without their spells. Dive them right after they cast.
Your game plan as Drifter
A stalker who marks a target and then makes sure no one can save them.
Lane
Rend in close range for bonus melee damage. Stalker’s Mark bleeds; re-activate it to pounce.
Mid game
Hunt the hero your team can’t reach. Marked targets running away are still in trouble.
Late game
Eternal Night blinds the enemy team to everything around them. Engage the moment it’s up.

- 01Pressure her when she’s low from her own abilities.
- 02Break Life Drain’s line of sight.
- 03Stay healthy near her when Soul Exchange is up; it’s worth less against low-health targets.
