How Kelvin beats Rem

Your game plan as Kelvin

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

Lane
Frost Grenade trades and heals your partner at once. Arctic Beam slows and reduces fire rate.
Mid game
Ice Path is the best rotation tool in the game. Use it to carry your team to objectives.
Late game
Frozen Shelter blocks everything: dome your carry, or dome a fight to split it.

  • 01Kill the hero Rem is attached to first.
  • 02Stay out of Naptime’s gaze; it goes through walls.
  • 03Dive Rem when Tag Along is down.
