Warden vs Abrams

Brawler vs Brawler

A brawler mirror is about who commits second. Both of you want close range, so the hero who lands crowd control on the other’s engage wins the trade. Keep stamina for a disengage and fight near your troopers.

Your game plan as Warden

A one-man army who walks into six and dares them to fight.

How to beat Abrams

A bully who wins by refusing to leave. Every fight Abrams takes, he wants to take at shotgun range.

• 01Kite him. Outside of Seismic Impact, Abrams has one gap-closer; once Shoulder Charge is down, walk backwards and shoot.
• 02Never fight near walls; a wall turns Shoulder Charge into a stun.
• 03Buy anti-heal before the second fight. Siphon Life and Infernal Resilience make long trades his.
• 04Bait Seismic Impact with your frontline before your carries commit.

1. 01Warden out-farms Abrams by ~20.3 last hits per match. Contest every orb and punish them for walking up to last-hit.
2. 02Brawler mirror: whoever lands crowd control first wins the trade. Keep stamina for the dash out.
3. 03Abrams has sustain (Siphon Life, Infernal Resilience). Short, sharp trades beat long ones — buy anti-heal early.
4. 04Your own sustain (Last Stand) wins extended lanes — stay longer than they can.
