Your side: Paige in lane

Lane strengths

  • 35 damage per shot on a projectile rifle is high for a support — she can genuinely contest a lane rather than only assist.
  • Bookwyrm Bookwyrm 5s Duration33s Cooldown Paige conjures a dragon that materialises at a chosen spot and then flies forward, damaging enemies along the way and leaving a strip of fire burning behind it. Damage 60 initial damage plus 30 damage per second from the trail (deadlock.one). Defensive The trail is a soft wall; 1 -12s cooldown. 2 +1 charge, +2s trail duration, +1m radius. 5 +12m travel range, +100 damage, +30 DPS. clears the wave and denies the approach lane at the same time, which is unusually efficient in a 2v2.
  • Plot Armor Plot Armor 35m Range5s Duration28s Cooldown Paige grants a chosen ally a barrier, and for as long as that barrier is still standing the ally's weapon damage is increased. Damage No damage. 125 barrier and +25% weapon damage at base (deadlock.one). T2… Mobility None, though it is her main way of keeping a diving ally alive. Defensive Direct barrier on an ally at 35m range (urgametips.com), 28s cooldown. 1 while barriered, +14% fire rate. 2 +100 barrier, +2s duration. 5 affects up to 2 additional allies with increased barrier scaling. on a lane partner turns a losing trade into a winning one and lets an aggressive duo take fights they should not.

Lane weaknesses

  • urgametips.com is explicit: Paige has no personal movement skill in her kit. Any dive that gets to her connects.
  • 680-730 HP with no self-shield means she dies to a single focused burst.
  • Her projectile weapon must be led, so a fast-moving laner is hard for her to punish.

Crowd Control A slow on entry, then an immobilize (root) when the zone detonates. Damage 90 spirit damage (deadlock.one). Defensive Immobilizing a diver is her only real self-peel, since she has no movement… 1 increased cooldown reduction. 2 +2m radius, on hit reduce spirit resist by 18% for 6s, and doubled range. early (laning 0-10min) — Her highest-win-rate opener, present in 64.7% of 11,521 tracked games (deadlocklabs.gg).
