Infernus is a fire-wielding Ixian who wins by keeping a burn alive, not by landing one big hit. His weapon, Incendiary Remarks, builds up Afterburn with every shot, so rapid-fire hits keep spirit damage ticking on a target even after he stops shooting. Napalm coats enemies, slows them, and makes them take more damage, which is your setup for everything else. Flame Dash is the engage and escape tool: he dashes forward with slow resistance while leaving a flaming trail that burns anyone chasing or fleeing through it. Concussive Combustion turns him into a living bomb, dealing spirit damage and stunning everything nearby after a short delay, and once cast it cannot be interrupted. You play him by constantly refreshing Afterburn, keeping targets coated in napalm, and timing the bomb for clumped fights or dives.
Strong vs: Infernus punishes slow or clustered targets, because anyone who cannot escape a Napalm coat simply keeps burning. He is strong against enemy comps that want to dive and stand on him: when they commit, Concussive Combustion stuns everything nearby. Afterburn's sustained spirit damage grinds down heroes who rely on health and regen rather than burst, since the burn keeps ticking after a fight looks lost. Coating a whole group with Napalm raises the damage they take, so your team's follow-up lands harder too.
Weak vs: Infernus struggles against anything that removes or resists his debuffs, since both Napalm's effect and Afterburn can be dispelled and Debuff Resist cuts Afterburn's base and maximum burn duration (though not its build-up). Long-range poke and burst heroes can kill him before Afterburn ever stacks, because his burn needs time to pay off. Flame Dash can be interrupted by Majestic Leap, Ethereal Shift, or Refresher, and being slowed or disabled keeps him from closing the distance. Caught without Concussive Combustion ready, he has little instant threat and can be run over.
Ivy is a team-up support with a surprising amount of disruption. Her whole kit amplifies an ally: Kudzu Connection tethers her to a teammate so that both gain fire rate, bullet lifesteal, and replicated healing — every heal Ivy receives, her tethered ally gets a share of too. She stops enemy pushes with Entangling Thorns, and when a fight turns she can Stone Form to stun a clump of enemies and heal herself, or grab a teammate and Air Drop them into or out of a fight. Ivy is one of the most mobile heroes in the game — her innate reduces her gravity, and Air Drop is a flying repositioning tool — which means she can be wherever her team needs her. Play her as a second support who sets up plays, not as a frontline.
Strong vs: Ivy punishes grouped-up enemies and any team that wins by sustained pressure rather than burst. Entangling Thorns and Air Drop both scale with how many enemies are caught, so death-ball compositions walk into her best tools. She is also strong against dive compositions, because Air Drop can simply remove the target the dive was built around, and Stone Form drags airborne heroes back to the ground. Her replicated healing out-sustains poke-heavy lanes and makes a farmed carry extremely hard to finish.
Weak vs: Ivy's weakness is that her value depends on her teammates being alive and worth supporting. If her carry is dead or behind, Kudzu Connection has no good target and her damage alone cannot win a fight. Long-range burst that kills her tethered ally before she can react gives her trouble, and any silence or stun that lands on Ivy herself can stop her from Air Dropping out. Slowing Hex disables Air Drop outright, so heroes who build it can shut down her most important ability.
Infernus has the larger base health pool at 830, compared to 755 for Ivy.
Ivy has the higher weapon DPS at 60.542, versus 52.381 for Infernus.
Neither hero is strictly better — they fit different roles. Infernus is a Marksman and Ivy is a Marksman, 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.
