How to Play Emma Frost: Combos and Tactics
Emma Frost’s true power comes from knowing when to stay in Human Form for ranged damage and when to transform into Diamond Form for close-quarters combat. Her versatility makes her a threat in multiple situations, but mastering her requires understanding the strengths and limitations of each form.
Human Form Strategy
In Human Form, Emma is best at mid-range. She can protect teammates and deal more damage the longer she keeps her main attack on an enemy.
- Stand behind your tank but in front of support characters.
- Keep pressure on enemies by holding your Telepathic Pulse (LMB) on key targets as long as you can, to deal more damage.
- Use your shield efficiently by dropping Mind’s Aegis (RMB) in tight spots or to block big enemy moves.
- Help your team get kills by using Psychic Spear (E) on weak enemies to trap them, then attack together.
This form is great when you’re playing as a team and focusing on the main goal. Don’t run off alone. Aim your beam well and follow enemies to do the most damage.
Diamond Form Strategy
The Diamond Form turns Emma into a strong close-range fighter who can take hits and control enemies.
- Switch to Diamond Form when you’re ready to fight up close or need to take less damage.
- Use Carbon Crush (E) to grab weaker enemies in the back.
- Stay near walls or ledges so Crystal Kick (RMB) can do more damage or knock enemies off easily.
- If you’re taking too much damage, switch back to Human Form.
