PRO TIPS

Controller Game Plan
Amber is strongest when played like a controller: choose fights around Hot Zone, hold useful angles, and avoid forcing low-value duels before the objective is ready.
PRIORITY
Draft Around Counters
Watch for Piper or Nani. If those brawlers appear, play slower, use cover more carefully, and let teammates create the first opening.
MATCHUP
