The Lich is the Hollow Court’s controller — a zone-caster who shapes the battlefield and denies the ground you need. The preserved, the patient, the cold. Once the most learned kingdom the world ever produced.
How the Lich plays
As a controller, the Lich runs on ESSENCE (a finite resource that drains as you act). Movement is decoupled from aim — strafe with WASD while you aim with the mouse — and crits are earned by striking stunned targets, so the Lich rewards reading the fight over button-mashing.
