How Lady Geist beats Baba

Mystic vs Mystic

Spell duels are cooldown trades. Use yours after theirs.

Your game plan as Lady Geist

A blood-mage who spends her own health to take yours.

Lane
Essence Bomb and Malice cost health. Trade with them aggressively, then Life Drain to refill.
Mid game
Malice stacks slow and amplifies damage. Chain it with your team’s burst.
Late game
Soul Exchange swaps health with an enemy: dive in low, swap with a healthy carry, and walk out.

  • 02Track Brew’s cycle. Don’t fight inside the puddle when it’s about to silence.
  • 03Pressure Baba early, before Threadsap snowballs her Spirit.
