Initial Thoughts On Yelena?

NONYABIZZNONYABIZZ Member Posts: 953 ★★★★

I personally am pretty excited for this new titan. I want all the ladies, really don't care about the other 3 guys.

I'd personally be ranking up yelena as a defender and that's perfectly fine if that's all she is. She's seems decent on attack tho.
Thoughts??

    So is Sinister the best counter?

    Was trying to remove a post that I added by mistake here, but since there is no function to remove the post, I wrote "Ignore the post" is a reference to my post here, and NOT to INITIAL THOUGHTS ON YELENA? thread.

    Another defender that has too many bells and whistles unless you bring the right specific counter.

    Sure if you take 1 single ability from each of them and nothing else
  • HarryatomixHarryatomix Member Posts: 559 ★★★
    This means more bleed ability reducing mutants are coming to contest. Will be funny if they go NTW route tho (she has no business reducing bleed ablity accuracy).
  • NONYABIZZNONYABIZZ Member Posts: 953 ★★★★
    A mutant who reduces ability accuracy of reversals will probably be here by 2026.
    They won't need to counter bleed because her bleeds are very much avoidable by dexing.

    They may give them bleed mitigation if they want them to counter bullseye as well since cyclops for some reason has bleed mitigation (even if its impractical).

    She’s literally the three of them. Bullseye’s guaranteed crits and instant bleeds, Valk’s block damage, bleeds and combo manipulation, Patriot’s reversal and combo manipulation

    Quick question, why is she poison immune? Just for the fun of it or is there something about her character's back story that I don't know about?

    I think it's mainly because ibom is getting introduced as 7* and I can't think of any skill champs who resist or immune to poison except moondragon.

    For anyone that got her in a high rarity or and faced her in BG.

    How is she doing as an Attacker and as a Defender?

    I don't have her but I've seen her on some BG streams. Okoye kills her quick; I don't think anyone wants to use her on attack.
    Spider-Woman has been giving people way more trouble, and again I don't have her, but she looks like a better version of piggy for attack too.
    But obviously too early to tell about either champ.

    Hi @TotemCorruption , many thanks for your response.

    That is a similar impression I got, I've seeing her been taken down quite quickly with Attackers still good HP left. Based on DLL Deepdive, I thought she was going to be crazy annoying on Def.

    She's going to be hell on unblockable nodes

    Mole Man, Chee'ilth, Mantis, Zemo and Silver Sable should do absolutely fine against ibom

    Yeah but in any purify punish nodes a skill poison immune champ would help.

    Poison immunity is related to the comics lore around red room training. Widows are trained to purify poisons in their body.
