What are the defining traits of a 'peel' composition, and how should it be drafted?



The defining traits of a 'peel' composition are a strong emphasis on protecting a primary damage dealer (typically a marksman or mage) from enemy assassins and divers, relying on crowd control, mobility, and sustain to keep them alive and allow them to deal consistent damage. The core strategy revolves around enabling the carry to deal sustained damage while mitigating the risk of being quickly eliminated. A peel composition is characterized by several key hero archetypes: a durable tank or fighter with strong crowd control abilities, such as stuns, slows, or knock-ups, to disrupt enemy engages; support heroes with healing, shielding, or crowd control abilities to protect the carry and provide sustain; and a mobile marksman or mage capable of dealing consistent damage from a safe distance. When drafting a peel composition, the first priority is to select a reliable carry hero with high damage potential and good mobility. Next, prioritize drafting a tank or fighter with strong engage and peel potential. Finally, select support heroes that synergize well with the carry and tank, providing additional protection and utility. The draft should also consider the enemy team's composition and aim to counter their engage potential. This may involve banning heroes with strong initiation abilities or drafting heroes with crowd control immunity. The overall goal is to create a balanced team composition that can effectively protect the carry while still dealing sufficient damage to win team fights.
