Summary & Playstyle

Scarlet Witch is a devastating duelist who relies on raw magical power and crowd control to dominate fights. Her chaotic abilities can dismantle teams, making her one of the most feared damage dealers in the game. She thrives in midline fights where she can unleash her spells safely. The key to her playstyle is patience and timing. Scarlet Witch should wait for vanguards to engage before following up with high-impact spells, overwhelming enemies caught in the frontline. Her crowd control and burst potential allow her to swing the outcome of fights almost single-handedly. Her weaknesses are fragility and reliance on positioning. Mobile duelists and ranged strategists can pressure her before she casts, while coordinated focus fire can quickly eliminate her. Still, when protected and timed well, Scarlet Witch is one of the most powerful duelists in Season 3.5.
