How I decide
«I use Veil together with other heroes' ready spells.»
Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
- 01 Situation
- The team can commit several abilities simultaneously into a suitable area.
- 02 My decision
- I coordinate the start and apply Spell Weakness before significant shared damage.
- 03 What I avoid
- Activate the effect without regard for allied readiness and lose the needed window.
When I would buy it
For a coordinated combo, with a way to stay in the right area.
