Your side: Mo & Krill in lane

Lane strengths

  • 930 base health is one of the largest pools in the game and makes them extremely hard to push out of lane.
  • Scorn clears troopers and heals off them simultaneously, so they sustain and farm from the same button — the top opener is Scorn, Scorn, Sand Blast at 66.9% WR (deadlocklabs.gg).
  • 8 m/s base move speed is unusually high for a hero this durable; they contest orbs and punish overextension on foot.

Lane weaknesses

  • Zero ranged presence — 2.8 damage per pellet means they contribute essentially nothing outside a few metres.
  • Every one of their damage tools requires being close, so a mid- or long-range laning duo can simply refuse to engage.
  • deadlocklabs.gg lists Shiv (-1.8%), Vindicta (-1.7%) and Silver (-1.5%) as their worst matchups — heroes who out-range or out-kite them.
