How Wraith beats Kelvin

Your game plan as Wraith

A duellist who isolates targets and teleports out before anyone can respond.

Lane
Card Trick builds cards with weapon damage; throw them for bonus effects.
Mid game
Project Mind is a teleport. Use it to flank, or to escape.
Late game
Telekinesis lifts a hero and slams them where you want — pull the carry into your team.

How to beat Kelvin

A support-tank who keeps his team alive and the enemy team slow.

  • 01Bait out Frozen Shelter before you use your big ultimate; the dome blocks line of sight.
  • 02Kill him on the ground; Ice Path is his escape.
  • 03Burst through his heals with anti-heal.
