Your game plan as Holliday
A trick-shooter. Holliday launches you into the air and then shoots you out of it.
Lane
Powder Keg knocks up and burns; shoot it to detonate it early. Crackshot headshots slow.
Mid game
Bounce Pad gives your team rotations and you an explosive landing.
Late game
Spirit Lasso pulls and stuns; Bounce Pad first extends it. Lasso the carry into your team.
How to beat Violet
An ink-painter who controls space: she slows and silences anyone caught in her art and grows stronger with every portrait she finishes.
- 01Break line of sight to stop Still Life before the sketch completes.
- 02Don’t fight inside Abstract Landscape when you have to leave it; walking out is what silences you.
- 03Deny her sketches early; each one she collects is a permanent stat boost.
