How Mina beats Calico
Mystic vs Assassin
Keep your CC for their dive. One stun on an assassin is usually a kill for your team.
Your game plan as Mina
A harasser who bites you to death with spirit damage you never quite dodge.
Lane
Every bullet adds spirit damage; abilities build up Love Bites. Harass constantly.
Mid game
Sanguine Retreat makes you untargetable and moves you, so it works as both your escape and your engage.
Late game
Nox Nostra seeks targets and silences them. Cast it into a grouped team before they can use abilities.
How to beat Calico
A shadow-hunter who appears, bursts and vanishes before anyone can turn around.
- 01Move in pairs once she leaves lane; Calico hunts solo targets.
- 02Make her use Return to Shadows before you spend your big cooldown.
- 03Spread out against Gloom Bombs. Extra bomb hits deal reduced damage, but a full cluster still hurts.
