Tips and Tricks To Play Storm
Storm can buff all her allies, making her an essential part of the team. Her abilities are easy to understand, but thedifficulty comes from when to switch between her Thunder mode and Tornado mode.
Storm’s Wind Blade can pierce, allowing it to hit multiple enemies if they are lined up and close to each other. Don’t be afraid to use it frequently, as the Wind Blade does a lot of damage.
The most essential part about Storm is thatyou’ll never go aggressively onto the enemy. You’ll have to stay alive as long as possible, which means you should stay close to all your teammates.
Once you are confident about your positioning, you’ll have to decide whether you want to use the Tornado mode or the Thunder mode.
When To Use Tornado Mode And Thunder Mode
Ideally, theTornado mode should be used while your team is chasing the enemy. This will allow you toclose the gap easily while using Goddess Boost to slow down anyonewho is trying to run away.
Thunder mode should be used when your team is directly fighting the enemyor someone is using their Ultimate. The damage boost from Storm is quite substantial and it’s better to keep an eye on your allies or communicate with them so that your Thunder mode doesn’t get wasted.
Storm always floats in the air, and she can go pretty high up. However, avoid flying too high or staying too still while in the air, or you’ll get shot down by enemies pretty easily.
It’s also important to mention that you canchange between the different weather modes at any time. However, theGoddess Boost has a pretty long cooldown, and you should use it only when your team is committedto a move, whether chasing enemies, running away, or attacking them.
Tips For Her Ultimate
As for Storm’s Ultimate,Omega Hurricane, don’t waste it on one single enemy. You should beusing it when multiple enemies are grouped up in a single location.
Since the Ultimate ability offers amazing crowd control,you can also use it to throw away enemies from objectives.
