Fortress Fortress's ULT summons wolves that go after you even if you are in stealth.
7
Gwen Gwen is simply powerful with long ranged attacks.
7
Petal Petal's munions can chase after you pretty fast. Petal also can attack you many times in quick succession.
8
Alpha Alpha can chase after you and keep attacking.
8
Idris Idris can throw a chainsaw at you, which can hit you even if you are in stealth.
8
Kestrel Nope. This is not a mistake. Kestrels have low defence and can be very powerful against each other.
8
Ringo Ringo's attack power is high, and his ULT can fire a blast of fire at you that hits you even when you are in stealth.
8
Skaarf Scaarf's ULT can shoot lots of fire you and keep chasing you. A recipe for disaster.
9
Ardan Ardan's ULT can trap you in an enclosed area and then destroy you.
9
Koshka Koshka has both a basic and a ULT ability that allows her to come right up to you even from far away and attack you.
9
Lance Lance has an ability that can stun you. You never want to get stunned as Kestrel
9
Ozo Ozo can dance on your head and bowl you over from a long ways away.
9
Rona Rona is powerful.
9
SAW Saw's basic ability shoots lots of bullets at you that slow you down and deal lots of damage to you. Kestrel's worst nightmare.
9
Skye Skye's basic ability can continuously fire bullets at you, and her other basic ability can make her fly at you and deal more damage.
9
Glaive Glaive can jump at you and push you towards his turrets and/or allies to help him kill you. He also frequently spins his axe in a big circle around him that may reveal of you if you're in stealth and get too close to it.
10
Phinn Phinn can pull you in and keep attacking you.
10
Taka Taka can sneak up on you and slice you in half. And then into quarters. And then into eighths. And then into sixteenths. Do I need to go on?

General Krestrel Top

I find Krestrel best as a jungler. That way, she can earn lots of gold and levels, (hopefully) without interruption. Then, once she is around level nine, and you have shatter glass and clockwork at least, you can continuously go into stealth mode to scout ahead for your team. And then, if you are feeling brave, you can go into stealth mode, and then go into stealth mode again beside an enemy hero, placing a phosphor cloud there. Then you can fire a glimmer shot at the enemy, detonating the phosphor and dealing much more damage than the glimmer shot alone could. Then, hopefully you can finish off the enemy with your remaining three glimmer shots. And, if you are feeling really really brave, when you know the enemy team is trying to take the Kraken, go into stealth and wait until the Kraken is almost taken, and then fire your glimmer shots at it. Then, you can hopefully take the Kraken for your side. And even if it doesn't get that far, at least the other team didn't take it!

Items and Why to Buy Them Top

The very first things you get when you enter the game, are energy battery and hourglass. You get these because you need lots of energy since you are always firing glimmer shots. Also, because they are the first steps to clockwork. Next, as soon as possible, upgrade to a void battery, chronograph, and get sprint boots. Sprint boots are very important because you are always running away from enemies. Next up, get clockwork. What we have all been waiting for. This regenerates your energy faster and decreases the cooldown of abilities. Then, after clockwork, eclipse prism and energy shard. These are also steps towards shatter glass, which increases Crystal power. This is essential as when it's paired with clockwork, it can make your stealth last long enough to reactivate stealth when you are still in stealth. Then, you upgrade to travel boots and you get coat of plates. Coat of plates is important because it is a step towards atlas pauldron. In the late game, you upgrade to shatter glass, also eve of harvest, also halcyon chargers, and Atlas Pauldron. Atlas gets you lots of armor, and shield, which will help you a bit to stay alive. Then, if you really want, you can upgrade your boots to war treads. That's it!
