Where El Primo shines
- A jump can start or disrupt a fight
- Close-range durability helps occupy space
Know your limits
- Needs a way to reach opponents
- Landing without team support is risky
One habit to practice
Plan the landing and the follow-up. Jumping at low health without an exit rarely creates useful pressure.
