Each time Carmilla deals damage to an enemy hero, she steals 6-13 Physical & Magic Defense (scales with level) from them. The stolen Physical & Magic Defense can stack up to 5 times and lasts 5s. However, Carmilla can only steal defense from the same enemy hero once every 3s.
Gameplay guide
Carmilla is a roam tank-support who steals both defenses, heals through three orbiting flowers, and links grouped enemies so half of damage and the full duration of control applied to one is copied to the others. Her success depends on landing Curse of Blood while allies are ready to follow immediately.
Charge Bloodbath in a bush, release its longer stun on a meaningful target, and activate Crimson Flower while close enough for repeated healing and defense steals. Do not pursue beyond allied damage just to keep flowers touching.
Arrive early to Turtle and wait until enemies group in a choke. Cast Curse of Blood, then use the charged Bloodbath stun on one linked target so every link receives the full control duration while allied damage is copied at 50%.
Stay patient around Lord and preserve the link for a coordinated engage. Carmilla is most valuable with teammates in range; if enemies spread immediately, peel with Bloodbath and flowers rather than becoming isolated.
Wait for enemies to stand close before Curse of Blood; linking one isolated tank provides little value to the team.
Touch several enemy heroes before the main exchange so Vampire Pact steals defenses from more than the front target.
Cast Curse of Blood when enemies are already close together or forced through a choke, ensuring shared control and damage reach multiple targets.
Allied burst and controlThe linked targets copy the full stun duration and half of all damage, while close-range flowers sustain Carmilla and steal defenses from multiple heroes.
