How Rem beats Graves
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.

- 01Don’t take long trades; Essence Theft steals your stats over time.
- 02Burst her before the Jar fills.
