How Kelvin beats Wraith

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.

How to beat Wraith

A duellist who isolates targets and teleports out before anyone can respond.

Laning

Win the lane: Kelvin into Wraith

  1. 01Wraith wins the farm by ~41.5 last hits per match. Prioritise safe last hits and denies over trades, and let your lane partner zone.
  2. 02Wraith denies ~1.3 more orbs per match — secure your orbs before they can.
  3. 03Wraith out-ranges most heroes. Fight around corners and troopers; step in when they reload or spend their mobility.
  4. 04Your own sustain (Frost Grenade, Frozen Shelter) wins extended lanes — stay longer than they can.
