How Rem beats Drifter
Your game plan as Rem
A tiny helper whose team never quite dies.
Lane
Pillow Toss knocks back and reduces your other cooldowns. Lil Helpers collect boxes and do Sinner’s Sacrifices.
Mid game
Tag Along hops onto an ally and heals both of you.
Late game
Naptime stops movement abilities in a line through walls — follow it with your team’s burst.
How to beat Drifter
A stalker who marks a target and then makes sure no one can save them.
- 01Stay with your team; Eternal Night isolates people who are already alone.
- 02Cleanse or out-heal Stalker’s Mark bleed rather than running.
- 03Peel for whoever he marks.
