Matchmaking requires picking three heroes you're willing to play. Who have you landed on, and why?

Tell us a bit about how you like to play your three, so the rest of us might get an idea of which other heroes we might like to try, too.

Ah, I suppose it's just my play style. I ALWAYS fully upgrade stamina and walking speed so I can zip around and dodge. I guess I have to focus more an health and resist late game when 1v1 is much more common.

More dashing makes sense. Less sure she gets much use out of additional walking speed, as she simply isn't for ganking.

Her kit is king for holding your ground. So while dashing to dodge things is great, you should try to pick a spot and stick to it, using the wall to force your opponent to do the same.

Do it right, and you can be firing at full speed, have two or three turrets doing the same, your AOE heal keeping you AND the turrets alive, and a wall between your opponent and their escape route. They will MELT.

I found that setting up some turrets in a corner in advance, the retreating to that corner to pull enemies into their line of fire, worked great.
