The upside

Where Rosa shines

  • Can contest space at close range
  • Shielding helps during a committed push
The trade-off

Know your limits

  • Struggles to engage across open lanes
  • Control effects can interrupt her approach
Take it into the match

Build pressure through cover, then use your shield when opponents are actually able to hit you.
