How Dynamo beats Kelvin

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.

How to beat Kelvin

A support-tank who keeps his team alive and the enemy team slow.

  • 01Bait out Frozen Shelter before you use your big ultimate; the dome blocks line of sight.
  • 02Kill him on the ground; Ice Path is his escape.
  • 03Burst through his heals with anti-heal.
