How Ivy beats Warden
Your game plan as Ivy
The partner. Ivy is twice as strong when she’s attached to the right ally.
Lane
Kudzu Connection with your lane partner gives you both bonuses. Entangling Thorns zones and slows.
Mid game
Air Drop an ally onto the enemy backline for a surprise explosion and a damage buff.
Late game
Stone Form is an emergency button and a stun. Use it when divers commit.
