How Dynamo beats Drifter
Your game plan as Dynamo
The fight-warper. Dynamo’s whole game is the one Singularity that wins the match.
Lane
Kinetic Pulse knocks up and trades well; Quantum Entanglement escapes and restores stamina.
Mid game
Heal with Rejuvenating Aurora between fights. Join every objective — you’re the team’s reset button.
Late game
Singularity into a grouped team is the best ultimate in the game when it lands. Teleport in with Quantum Entanglement, pop it, let allies follow.

- 01Stay with your team; Eternal Night isolates people who are already alone.
- 02Cleanse or out-heal Stalker’s Mark bleed rather than running.
