Abrams is a close-range juggernaut who wins by walking into the enemy team and refusing to die. Siphon Life drains the enemies around him and heals him for a portion of the damage, so standing in the middle of a fight literally keeps him topped up. Shoulder Charge is his initiate — slam a target into a wall to stun them and pull them out of position. Infernal Resilience turns every hit he takes into stored regeneration, so the enemy's chip damage feeds him instead of killing him. Play him as the tip of the spear: start the fight, isolate one hero, and let his team clean up.
Strong vs: Abrams feasts on fragile backline heroes he can reach and pin down. Shoulder Charge pulls enemies in and a wall hit stuns them, which is exactly how he isolates a squishy carry from the rest of their team. Once he's on top of a target, Siphon Life keeps draining them while Case Closed finishes at point-blank. Enemies with no answer for being dragged into melee, like ranged damage dealers caught in bad positions, are his best prey.
Weak vs: Anything that keeps Abrams at arm's length or shuts down his engage gives him a hard time. His weapon falls off hard past 17m, so ranged heroes can whittle him down while he closes the distance. Shoulder Charge can be dispelled, and both it and Seismic Impact are disabled by Slowing Hex, so slows and dispels blunt his initiation. His engage cooldowns are long — 33s for Shoulder Charge and 215s for Seismic Impact — so baiting the charge and stepping away leaves him exposed. Infernal Resilience only stores healing over time; it doesn't stop a coordinated burst from killing him outright.
Pocket is a close-range burst trickster who wins by closing the gap with Flying Cloak and unloading The Black Sheep's seven-pellet shotgun spread at point-blank. Their kit punishes clumps: Barrage launches slowing projectiles that build a stacking damage amp on Pocket, and Affliction drains nearby enemies' health over time. Enchanter's Satchel is both escape and threat — disappear to dodge return fire, then pop out for the spirit damage. Because they fight up close, stay unpredictable and treat every cooldown as a resource. They are squishy (780 base health and -15% spirit resist), so commit only when you have a way out.
Strong vs: Pocket is strong against clumped-up enemies, since Barrage's projectiles and Affliction both hit everyone nearby. They punish squishy backliners who can't escape a Flying Cloak teleport into a point-blank shotgun spread. Enemies that rely on healing suffer once Affliction is fully upgraded, because it prevents all healing. Isolated targets with no mobility are the easiest kills — cloak in, burst, satchel out.
Weak vs: Long-range pokers outrange The Black Sheep's close-range shotgun and can chip Pocket while they struggle to close safely. Heavy burst kills them fast given only 780 base health and -15% spirit resist. Enemies with reliable hard CC can lock Pocket down before they can Satchel or Cloak away. Anything with Debuff Resist shortens the Barrage slow and Affliction's drain, and dispels can strip Pocket's slows outright.
Abrams has the larger base health pool at 800, compared to 780 for Pocket.
Pocket has the higher weapon DPS at 57.068, versus 51.429 for Abrams.
Neither hero is strictly better — they fit different roles. Abrams is a Brawler and Pocket is an Assassin, so the right pick depends on your team composition, the enemy draft, and which playstyle you are comfortable with. Check the win rates on our tier list for the current patch.
