While desecrated is ■■■■■■■■, her damage is VERY low and so is her mobility, most battleborn are able to survive if they dodge the shield
Anyone could lose 1v1 if we assumed they missed their crucial skills…
Pendles.
Not necessarily, like marquis, attikus, orendi (in a way), and shayne and aurox are some that do well
@cadecampbell I was actually being sarcastic lol. I was hoping you guys would catch on >_<
She is in my opinion the strongest dueler in the game. I wipe the floor with just about every 1v1 fight
Also, I think she’s my new favorite
Oh my bad then, off topic question, do you know any pentakill lines
lol no I’ve never gotten one 
Got insanely close last night with galilea though, except that pesky gault dropped a trap at his feet and got away from me -_-
The audacity of that ghalt! XD
Can’t kill the captain eh, you just aren’t rogue enough
A lvl 1, no gear Rath is absolute garbage.
If you can dodge orendi’s shenanigans she would die super fast and you would be no worse for wear. And her big ass head doesn’t exactly help her case.
While Orendi has the best damage in the game, I would consider her far from the best 1v1er. Her potency comes from behind behind minions and teammates so she can blast pillars unsuspectedly
When orendi has someone to peel for her she is a force to be reckoned with but solo she just seems predictable.
I wanted to ask if you were sarcastic, but figured if you were, I’d understand that. Turns out I’m an idiot. ;D
Worst is Pendles by far. His very character is designed to kill someone that is already weakened by someone else. He’s as dependent on his teammates as Reyna but because of how slow he is and that he’s a melee, anyone can off hand melee him and just stay away from any attack he can dish out. He lacks the damage to kill someone at full health before they kill him. Especially considering how low his health is.
Also @legendoflink2288 as a Rath main I assure you that even with out gear Rath is still one good for 1v1. He has CC and good damage on both of his skills from level one and his melee has one of the best hit boxes in the game.
In a 1v1 vacuum pendles isn’t awful. Pendles also just straight kills a Miko at full health if they are competent enough
Miko just needs to push him back and use Biosynthesis to heal up. Miko has one of the fastest off hand melees in the game and slowing Pendles while he’s at distance would ensure that Miko can heal up before Pendles can engage again. Pendles can ambush Miko while it is distracted in a normal game and burst him down but in a 1v1 vacuum Pendles loses the ability to ambush. Free of other distractions anyone can easily spot a cloaked Pendles and be aware of his attacks.
I think people on this thread are really underestimating how useful a reliable self sustain is in a 1 on 1 fight. Characters with life steal or self healing are at a massive advantage over most other characters in 1 on 1. I’m not saying Miko can solo Montana but don’t sell the surviability of Biosynthesis short.
It would be great if they add a “Duel” option to this game, a 1v1 PvP mode, with voting on Level (1, 5 and 10). Even a 2v2 “arena-like” with the same mechanism would be great. I think it will require a lot of skill from the players. What do you guys think? 
Imagine all the possibilities…
Oh I am not. But I think you are underestimating the incredible amount of speed pendles has whilst cloaked to reposition and evade extremely effectively. Pendles in a 1v1 where he doesn’t have to worry about the opponent intervening also gets the ability to smoke bomb out to set up an all in attack with smoke bomb on cooldown. Not to mention that whatever self sustain Miko can get is basically nullified by pendles ultimate
