Your side: Holliday in lane

Lane strengths

  • Powder Keg Powder Keg 28s Cooldown Throws a barrel that detonates after a short delay for spirit damage, applies a burn, and launches anyone caught in the blast into the air. Crowd Control knockup on detonation — hard CC that removes the target's ability to strafe Damage about 80 spirit at base plus burn damage over time; Mobility self-launch: detonating it under her own feet is her primary traversal tool 1 +40 impact damage, about +13.3 burn damage per second, roughly -5s charge time and… clears the wave quickly and pokes the enemy laner in the same cast
  • Crackshot Crackshot 20s Cooldown Her headshots deal bonus damage and apply a fading movement speed penalty. Crowd Control a fading movement speed penalty; Damage about 55 bonus damage at base; Defensive the slow is a kiting tool against a chasing bruiser 1 about -20% additional fading move speed penalty 2 about +49.5 damage and -6% Bullet Resist on the target for 5 seconds 5 about -6s cooldown on hero headshots and -3s on NPC headshots ignores falloff, so she can harass from ranges where her opponent cannot answer
  • Bounce Pad Bounce Pad 22s Duration41s Cooldown Drops a pad that launches any hero who touches it high into the air. Crowd Control tier 3 adds about +0.7s stun to the landing stomp Damage about 60 stomp damage on landing (deadlock.one) Mobility very large vertical launch for Holliday and all allies who step on it 1 about -10s cooldown 2 she and allies gain roughly +4 m/s movement speed for 4 seconds on landing 5 about +0.7s stun on the landing stomp gives her a lane escape most laners simply cannot follow

Lane weaknesses

  • 10-round magazine at roughly 2.1 shots per second means whiffed shots are very expensive
  • No self-heal or sustain of any kind — chip damage accumulates on her with nothing to offset it
  • Her damage is heavily gated behind landing headshots, so she loses lane to anyone whose damage is not aim-gated

Power spikes

  • Spirit Lasso Spirit Lasso 20m Range2.3s Duration130s Cooldown Throws a lasso that deals spirit damage, pulls the target toward her, and stuns them. Crowd Control pull (displacement) plus stun (hard CC) Damage about 80 spirit at base (deadlock.one) Mobility she can relocate while lassoing, dragging the victim with her 1 Bounce Pad interaction extends lasso duration; unlock — Gives her a guaranteed pick and the ability to remove one enemy from a fight entirely
  • Bounce Pad Bounce Pad 22s Duration41s Cooldown Drops a pad that launches any hero who touches it high into the air. Crowd Control tier 3 adds about +0.7s stun to the landing stomp Damage about 60 stomp damage on landing (deadlock.one) Mobility very large vertical launch for Holliday and all allies who step on it 1 about -10s cooldown 2 she and allies gain roughly +4 m/s movement speed for 4 seconds on landing 5 about +0.7s stun on the landing stomp tier 3 — The roughly +0.7s landing Stun turns her mobility tool into a genuine engage
  • Crackshot Crackshot 20s Cooldown Her headshots deal bonus damage and apply a fading movement speed penalty. Crowd Control a fading movement speed penalty; Damage about 55 bonus damage at base; Defensive the slow is a kiting tool against a chasing bruiser 1 about -20% additional fading move speed penalty 2 about +49.5 damage and -6% Bullet Resist on the target for 5 seconds 5 about -6s cooldown on hero headshots and -3s on NPC headshots tier 2 — About +49.5 damage plus a bullet-resist shred makes each headshot a real burst window
