How to beat Wendy
- Destroy the turbine first. Once it is gone, her team loses its damage reduction.
- Burst her when her own shield is down. She has low health without it.
- Fight away from water. She can walk over it to escape where you cannot follow.
Common mistake: Using the blast only on enemies. Shielding teammates is what makes Wendy valuable.
Best Wendy Build
Star Powers
More health for the turbine, so it keeps absorbing damage for longer in big team fights.
Gadgets
Slows enemies and stops them from healing for a few seconds. Strong against healers and brawlers that heal on hit.
Recommended Gears

Game plan
Wendy is a Mythic support who spawns with her own shield and can move over water. Her blast damages enemies and shields herself, or gives a teammate a bigger shield when it hits an ally. Her Super places a wind turbine that absorbs part of the damage she and nearby teammates take, and damage to her shield charges her Super.
- Shoot teammates who are about to take damage. The shield you give an ally is much bigger than the one you give yourself.
- Place the turbine where your team will fight, not behind it. It only protects brawlers in its range.
- Let your shield soak hits. Damage to your shield charges your Super, so early trades are fine.
Drafting Wendy
- When to pick
- Pick Wendy for team fights where all three brawlers stay close and can stand inside her turbine.
- Who to pair with
- Pair her with tanks and short-range fighters who take a lot of damage and benefit most from her shields.
- Ban or not
- Rarely worth a ban. Focus the turbine and she loses most of her value.
