Pokemon Unite Build Guide: Mr. Mime

thegamer.com:

Let’s get one thing straight — Mr. Mime is nowhere near as terrifying in Pokemon Unite as he is in that movie, unless of course you’re the enemy team trying to get past him. A dependable Supporter, it lives up to its description as a barrier between your foes and your carries.

Mr. Mime is relatively easy to play, but you’ll need to learn to position yourself well in order to be effective in protecting your allies. While Mime can deal damage, you’ll ideally want to focus on supporting your allies and taking advantage of Mime’s abilities.

Mr. Mime is an ideal choice when your team needs a disruptor, one with good survivability and can prevent your enemies from locking onto your backline carries. With them shielded, they’ll be free to deal the kind of damage you’ll need to push lanes.

However, while Mime himself isn’t that difficult to play, he does rely on having teammates that are on the same page. Your lane partner can’t be too aggressive or reckless, as Mime won’t be able to protect them well. It’s a pick best reserved for when you know who you’re playing alongside, more than whom you’re playing against.

This build is all about doing what Mr. Mime does best — blocking the enemy. You’re not here for glory or for goals, but to facilitate your allies carrying you to victory. You’ll deal a nice bit of damage, but your timing is going to be key.

You have flexibility to pick Psychic for the debuff, or Confusion for the knockback.
