The upside

Where Cordelius shines

  • His Super isolates a target from the wider fight
  • Close pressure can threaten selected opponents
The trade-off

Know your limits

  • The isolated duel still depends on positioning
  • Using isolation can leave teammates without support
Take it into the match

One habit to practice

Choose a target you can handle and consider what the remaining players will do while you are away.
