Duelist

Reyna becomes more dangerous when she wins direct fights. She has little value from wasted abilities if she never secures an opening.

PLAYSTYLE

How Reyna works

Pick duels with an escape route in mind and let teammates support the first contact.

PRACTICAL GAMEPLAN

What to do during a round

Use Leer to contest an angle, take a committed fight and decide whether healing or disengaging is best after a successful takedown.

ABILITIES EXPLAINED

Abilities & ultimate

What each ability does and when to use it in a real match.

01Basic

Leer

Create a destructible vision-disrupting eye to contest a line of sight.

02Basic

Devour

Convert a qualifying soul orb into health recovery.

03Signature

Dismiss

Use a qualifying soul orb to reposition in an intangible state.

04Ultimate

Empress

Enter an empowered combat state that rewards continued wins in duels.

Passive / unique resource

Soul Harvest creates soul orbs from qualifying takedowns that fuel Devour and Dismiss.

ULTIMATE GUIDE

When to activate the ultimate

Empress amplifies her offensive pressure; use it when there are multiple fights to take, not merely to contest one unsafe peek.

A common mistake to avoid

Without team support, repeated solo peeks can turn a strong aim character into a liability.
