Return to full health behind cover between trades to replenish the extra protection.

Gear

The upside

Where Emz shines

  • Lingering spray punishes enemies who remain in its area
  • Her Super helps control nearby space
The trade-off

Know your limits

  • Enemies directly on top of her are harder to handle
  • Longer-range opponents can stay outside her pressure
Take it into the match

One habit to practice

Maintain the distance where your spray lingers over opponents. Retreat while attacking instead of letting them walk through your range.
