How Lash beats Kelvin

Your game plan as Lash

A diver who arrives from the sky and leaves with the enemy’s carry.

Lane
Ground Strike from the air for damage. Flog heals you.
Mid game
Grapple resets air jumps and dashes, so use it to reach targets no one else can.
Late game
Death Slam lifts and stuns everyone you connect to, then slams them. Grab as many as you can.

How to beat Kelvin

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

  • 01Bait out Frozen Shelter before you use your big ultimate; the dome blocks line of sight.
  • 02Kill him on the ground; Ice Path is his escape.
  • 03Burst through his heals with anti-heal.
