About Empyrean Ilynav

Empyrean Ilynav does far less damage than nearly every other meta hero, and she absorbs far more of it than almost all of them do in return. She is picked well above the pool median despite that damage profile, and opponents ban her in-draft somewhat more often than a typical pick once she has made a team. The two damage numbers are what set her card apart, not how often she is picked or how often she wins.

Two damage numbers pulling in opposite directions

Against the other meta heroes her Damage Dealt lands in the bottom third of the field, well under what a typical pick manages. Her Damage Suffered tells the opposite story, ranking 9th of 133 and among the highest figures anywhere on the page. Even with that split, her Total Score still reaches 19th of 133, comfortably clear of the pool median.

One hero decides each end of her card

Aubade Ludwig is by far her hardest matchup, separated from every other hero that gives her trouble on that side of the card. Harsetti sits at the opposite end, the matchup she wins most convincingly and by a comparably wide margin. Both extremes of her matchup list point back to a single hero rather than a spread of several across the rest of the field.
