Now that you know what her abilities are, let’s look at how to use them.

How to Play Miko in Bleeding Edge

The first question you’re going to want to answer before hopping into a match is “which super should I pick for Miko?” While both have their benefits, Stalker is an all-around better choice, as it lets you do more than just heal one ally like Life Force.

When active, Stalker allows Miko to give all her allies stealth and heals them over time. Alongside that, it also gives out the enemy’s location on the map.

Miko also does really well in combat, as her Augmented Staff does big damage and serves as a great method of crowd control. For example, while Maeve is a considerably good character in her own right, the Augmented Staff attack interrupts her combos easily.

Keep in mind that even though she does some solid damage, the South African melee support character still always does better when surrounded by teammates. Staying together provides her the necessary time and space to trade-off between attack and support, giving your team the numbers advantage in the process.

Also, don’t forget to take care of yourself as well when playing Miko by double-tapping the Chain Heal ability when her health is running low.

Follow these steps and you’ll have a well-balanced team in Bleeding Edge in no time. Just remember, practice makes perfect.
