Tips and Tricks
PLAYSTYLE AND STRENGTHS
Self-Revive: When he dies, his passive (Regenerative Cocoon) lets him respawn wherever he wants, giving him a second chance to jump back into the fight.
Team Synergy: He works great with heroes like Mantis and Star-Lord, thanks to his team-up ability that lets them revive themselves too.
Damage Sharing: His L-Shift (Soul Bond) links allies, spreading damage across the team and giving everyone a bit of healing over time. It’s perfect for surviving big enemy attacks.
Healing and Reviving: His E (Avatar Life Stream) heals allies and himself, bouncing between targets for big heals. Plus, his Q (Karmic Revival) can bring dead teammates back to life, which is a game-changer in clutch moments.
WEAKNESSES
Squishy: With only 250 health, he’s easy to take down if he’s caught out of position.
No Mobility: Adam has no way to escape or move quickly, so if enemies dive him, he’s pretty much stuck.
Cooldown Reliant: His E and L-Shift have long cooldowns, so you need to use them wisely. If you waste them, your team might be out of luck.
Ultimate Vulnerability: His Q (Karmic Revival) locks him in place while casting, making him an easy target for enemies.
