RMB Mind Link(Team-Up Ability) Emma Frost can form a mental link with Magneto and Psylocke, calling on her to create illusory projections.

Q Emma Frost's kit is versatile, formed around her having two different sets of abilities in default form or Diamond Form. When she switches to Diamond Form, she not only gets damage reduction and can't be crowd-controlled, but she gets three completely different abilities. In her normal form, Emma's Telepathic Pulse deals increased damage the longer you hit an opponent, and Mind's Aegis is a projected ice shield that she can place to block off incoming fire. With Psychic Spear, she can create an extra method of pain to enemies by creating a psychic crystal she can deal damage to. Diamond Form is where she gets pretty fun, as her kit changes to be more melee-focused. She can get up close and personal with Carbon Crush, which is a lunge that ends in a command grab attack where she grabs the enemy by the throat and slams them. Faceted Fury is a replacement of her main attack with basic punches, while Crystal Kick can launch enemies into a wall for big damage. Consider using Magneto or Psylocke to team-up with Emma for their Mind Link team-up ability, which allows the other two mutants to create psychic projection doubles. These doubles will replicate the hero's abilities as they are used, such as Magneto's shields or bubbles and Psylocke's damaging crossbow projectiles.

This forward-facing cone-like projectile deals damage, but the longer it stays on an enemy, it will take over their mind and force them to walk forward towards Emma and into her path of damage.
