How Infernus beats Silver

Mystic vs Brawler

Kite and zone. Your spells punish brawlers who walk straight at you.

Your game plan as Infernus

A pyromaniac who wins by keeping everyone burning for just a bit too long.

Lane
Every bullet stacks Afterburn. Open trades with Napalm; it amplifies your damage on whoever it hits.
Mid game
Flame Dash through fights and leave fire behind you. Long, messy skirmishes are where you win.
Late game
Concussive Combustion can’t be interrupted once you start it. Flame Dash into the middle of their team and blow up.
