Ivy is a fun hero to play in Deadlock, and it packs a very strong fire rate. It’s crazy how fast she shoots and how strong it can turn out to be with the right item build. I know that her role is mainly to support, but if you want to just play it as a DPS carry, then you can do so with the right items.
Ivy is especially strong because she can disengage dangerous fights, or ditch the ones the team is about to lose.
