Tips and Tricks
PLAYSTYLE AND STRENGTHS
Self-Boost: Her F (Natural Anger) gives her a 12% damage boost, letting her chip in with some damage when needed.
Damage Buffs: Her E (Allied Inspiration) boosts an ally’s damage by 12%, perfect for helping your Duelists shred through enemies.
Crowd Control: Her L-Shift (Spore Slumber) puts enemies to sleep for 3.5 seconds, giving your team time to focus them down or escape.
Healing Powerhouse: Her right-click (Healing Flower) heals allies instantly and over time, making her a must-have for keeping the team alive during fights.
Ultimate Game-Changer: Her Q (Soul Resurgence) heals everyone around her, gives them a speed boost, and even converts extra healing into bonus health. It’s clutch for turning fights around.
WEAKNESSES
Squishy: With only 250 health, she can get taken out fast if caught out of position.
Low Mobility: Mantis has no movement abilities, so she’s an easy target for flankers like Spider-Man or Star-Lord.
Skill-Dependent: Her L-Shift (Spore Slumber) requires good aim and timing to be effective, and missing it can leave her vulnerable.
No Burst Healing: Her healing is gradual, so she struggles to save allies from sudden bursts of damage.
Life Orb Management: Her abilities rely on Life Orbs, which have a cooldown. If you run out, you’re stuck waiting to heal or buff.
