She does this in the most interesting way possible.
Frost will throw a small orb toward the opponent and freeze them in place.
You might also miss a subtle low-feeze strike alongside it.

Sareena

To make the most of the ring, you could corner your opponent and throw the ring at them.
Sly, but effective.
Alternatively, Sareena can throw lightning-fast projectiles that restart a combo.
Thats all it takes to win.
Its the perfect way to wrap up the gap between yourself and your opponent.
Sektor
Sektor is exceptional for tipping the scale in your favor, even at the last minute.
He uses a flamethrower to execute devastating and longer combos.
It works by creating bursts of flame that let out aektor fire that burns your opponent to crisp.
Furthermore, Sektor has a missile and his classic teleport ability.
The missiles, in particular, are a spectacle.
They fly upwards before aiming for the opponent.
Kung Lao
Kung Laos weaponized hat comes in handy for last-minute finishes.
Additionally, he uses his teleporting to help you evade attacks.
Kung Lao will grab you and teleport you directly behind your opponent.
So, if they launch a missile at you, the missile will head for them instead.
Pretty cool, huh?
Teleporting isnt restricted to surprise attacks, though.

However, hes an easy kameo to practice with, especially for beginners.
And Kung Laos attacks are reliable for coming out of high-stakes scenarios unscathed.
Darrius

If it sounds like a lot for an assist, dont worry.
Darrius spends a generous amount of screen time fighting alongside you.
You dont always need to call Darrius out to take action.
Instead, he takes charge on screen.
However, Darrius does tend to use up his meter quickly.
