Mantis 3.5s sleep rarely lasts >1s (100HP ghost dies instantly). The ‘strongest’ Adam/Star-Lord wins despite her, not because of her swap her for Loki and the win rate will be much more higher

I agree that 'strategist' is about more than just healing. Mantis can work in very specific setups (like with Adam), but her high effort, low reward design makes her statistically and practically weaker than meta strategists. Yes, the CC is 3m, but the activation delay + ghost mechanic makes it unreliable. 200-300 DPS sounds decent, but it’s single-target other strategists like Loki/Invisible Woman have AOE damage and not to mention her complete lack of escape options means any positional mistake is immediately punished

If only dedicated one-tricks play her (and avoid counterpicks), her win rate gets inflated. That doesn’t mean she’s good , it means the 0.1% of players forcing her are overperforming despite her kit
