Guide

Snorlax is tanky. Really tanky. Your job for all the game is to defend your point, and offer kill opportunity to your team mate. You have a lot of option to do that, with a lot of Control.

First in your early game, remember you are really tanky and deal a very good amount of damage thanks to Tackle and Rest. Disclaimer, do not overestimate yourself against some long range character or some mobility. Your dash have a very low range during the first level. Do not hesitate to use your Eject Button in offensive way in order to take an advantage. Snorlax is really great to snowball when well played.

TIPS : Tackle can hit multiple minions and heroes at the same time, do not hesitate to train a bit in order to make your first clear faster.

On level 6, you gain Heavy Slam. This is where Snorlax start to be really powerful. You now have a long range AOE Dash and Stun. Take care or character like Ninetales or Mr. Mime which can disturb your dash with their own skills. At this point of the game, nobody should be able to score if you defend a point. You can also start diving under tower if you have a numeric superiority.

On level 8, you unlock Yawn or Block. I personaly prefer Yawn for its ability so take down enemy easier than with Block. However, against multiple diving assassin (like a Zeraora / Gengar duo), you can use Block in order to Control them easily. Yawn is also way better when diving under tower, but both those spells are really strong in my opinion.

Level 10 is where you start being able to take huge damage in fights, while forcing focus upon yourself. Power Nap will heal you up to your max hp while taking damage while dealing a bit of damage in the area. It also Bump your enemies on activation so its really great to use in order to protect your carries. Since you are playing Buddy Barrier, the shield it offer to you and your team mate can really matter in fights.

In mid / late game, your job is basicly to tank, Control priority target that annoy your carry (assassin or hyper carries) and take down over positioned enemies.

For my item setup, in prefer using a full tank build. You already have a great amount of base damage, being even tankier is just profitable for your own confort. Rocky Helmet can be swapped for
Focus Band if you wish a bit more healing in your kit. Can be useful against some huge dps dealer like Cinderace or Gardevoir in order to survive during your Unite Ability.
