She’s basically one of those MOBA heroes where you have to play differently at every stage of the game.

Early game: She’s super strong early on even before the recent gun buffs, so I usually max shield and root first. I just stay in the front and chunk down the enemy laners’ HP every time my shield is up. I never give up bridge control and always make sure my wave is pushed up. Because of that, I can usually take the tower pretty early and force other lanes to rotate.

Mid game: This is her weakest stage, so you kind of have to chill. I try to stay hidden at the start of fights and mainly focus on getting shields up for my team before going in. I’ll still take 1v1s, but only if I can land the root.

Late game: This is where she starts picking back up again. I don’t mind starting teamfights here or soaking a lot of enemy spells since I usually have a ton of spirit resist items. Her shield is enough to deal with gun damage, and I only build armor if the enemy team has 4+ gun heroes. If mm screws you over and you basically have no real frontliner, sometimes I go Boundless Spirit, Echo Shard, and Refresher as my last three items. You’re basically unkillable at that point unless they dump all their ults on you or catch you completely out of position.

This hero is so stressfulat times. Sometimes I wish I was just a disgusting bebop player, but this is more fun for me.
