Guide

Heartbreaker thrives at long range and should always position herself at a distance where enemies cannot easily close the gap. Key strategies include:

  • Maintain Distance: Always position yourself where you can engage without risking close combat.
  • Team Coordination: Work closely with your duo to ensure they cover your flanks and you provide ranged support.
  • Use Invisibility Wisely: Either to escape, heal, or reposition for a sneaky attack.
  • Smart Sonar Usage: Reveal enemy positions strategically but avoid using sonar recklessly, as it can give away your location.
