Trying to combine Dream Coil with a fully channeled Illuminate often feels awkward in practice. Enemies can usually move enough inside the coil to dodge the blast, or they might break the leash and get stunned out of the damage path entirely. Beyond that one interaction, both heroes occupy a similar space on the map. They are both squishy, magic-damage casters who want to play from the back lines. While Keeper of the Light can give Puck some extra mana with Chakra Magic, it doesn't solve their shared vulnerability to being jumped on. The lineup can end up lacking a durable front line to create space for them.
