How Seven beats Graves
Mystic vs Mystic
Spell duels are cooldown trades. Use yours after theirs.
Your game plan as Seven
A storm that rolls in once the fight is already messy.
Lane
Lightning Ball pushes and pokes; Power Surge bounces shock damage between troopers and heroes.
Mid game
Static Charge stuns everyone around the target — throw it on a hero standing in a group.
Late game
Storm Cloud grows and damages everything in line of sight. Channel it from cover where enemies can’t reach you.

- 01Don’t take long trades; Essence Theft steals your stats over time.
