Your game plan as Ivy

The partner. Ivy is twice as strong when she’s attached to the right ally.

How to beat Billy

A punk with a bat who turns every melee hit into ammo and every fight into a brawl.

• 01Keep him off you; Billy wants melee range for everything.
• 02Don’t pull against Chain Gang; straining the chain slows you hard.
• 03Bait Rising Ram, then fight while it’s on full cooldown.

1. 01Ivy out-farms Billy by ~20.3 last hits per match. Contest every orb and punish them for walking up to last-hit.
2. 02Billy wants close range. Keep troopers between you, save stamina for a dash out, and punish them when they over-commit.
3. 03Your own sustain (Kudzu Connection, Stone Form) wins extended lanes — stay longer than they can.
