Kelvin can apply tremendous map presence as well as being very good at bailing out teammates, his healing power is unmatched.

Early Game

  • Extra Regen is very nice to have and can be purchased early; you will eventually upgrade it into Healing Booster and Healing Tempo.
  • Healing Rite allows you to collect boxes and stay healthy in lane, and can later be upgraded into Healing Nova.
  • Extra Charge provides stronger lane presence, letting you use Frost Grenade either offensively or defensively.
  • Apply a triple imbue to Frozen Shelter with Compress Cooldown, Mystic Expansion, and Duration Extender.
  • Headshot Booster and Close Quarters are viable lane options if you believe you can win the matchup.
  • Heroic Aura is a solid choice if your team has multiple heroes who benefit from increased fire rate and the enemy team deals heavy weapon damage.
