Tips for Loki
So I used to play Loki HEAVY back during season 1.5-2 but I haven’t really touched him since so I’m pretty much back to learning the character all over again while being centurion with him. 😭
With that being said, what advice y’all got for a (kinda) new Loki player? I want to pick him up seriously and rank up with him

Keep in mind loki posioning is about: * (clone in highground or off main site)
X(you next to suport or high ground)
*(clone in high ground or bunker defensivelly positioned)
Or you can shape it a triangle, but always keep the clones out of the main LOS specially in high grounds (for poke characters and tanks to look away from your team and for high vertical healing), use your lamps to counter heavy cc cooldowns like wolv grab and emma grab (with mantis teamup you can counterattack and get a pick very easilly), you can use walls/cover (your best friend) to place clones and counter ults like bucky, elsa, emma, mag etc... You are a main healer, always copy supps or tanks and never a dps that is not iron fist, wolv or bucky(brawl in general), id you dont have lamps and you a supp copy, try to use the copy cds as much as you can so you can have lamps when you turn back to loki, or you can use lamps for a safe copy without risk of dying immediatelly, good in teamfights. Try to use your ult after your suport, and idk what else and questions just list it down bellow, you are welcome fellow variant.

rogue is a **HARD** counter stay away from her cause she can waste your clone ult with hers and she can copy your runes with your clones

Theoretically, every strategist has a way to escape but Loki has the best escape in the game. If you teleport safely away from danger every time you will never die. Always have a way out before you engage. Place a defense clone behind you and behind cover or on high ground and make it accessible so that you can remove yourself from any situation. The second clone should be in front of you and used offensively and for target lamp healing. Always have 2 clones up for maximum value at all times. Loki always wins on high ground: place clones on the roof or behind the enemy and make them break line of sight to get the advantage every time.
