Hello Everyone!

I've had a huge itch to play a very specific type of hero, so I decided to spend some time making a concept that fits that exact playstyle. Here is a hero heavily inspired by Devil May Cry, Ninja Gaiden, and over 1,000 hours of playing Genji.

  • Role: Vertical Skirmisher / Assassin
  • Weapon: Suppressed Burst Handgun (Slow fire rate, high damage, flame-empowered burst)

  • For Quick Draw, the idea is that the sword visually glows or changes stance when the 3rd stack is ready, so the empowered parry-slash is telegraphed and obvious for the enemy to play around.
  • The Ultimate (Demon Arts) might seem a bit extreme, but the core idea is that this kind of character can't really start massive team fights. With his ultimate, he can force the enemy team to scatter, creating space for his team and allowing him to isolate targets for much more favorable 1v1 encounters.
  • The Tier 3 Ultimate Upgrade (Apocalypse) is the true centerpiece of the kit. It is designed to reward absolute mastery. The goal is that after playing the hero for a long time and truly learning his limits, this cooldown reset is what allows you to pull off something incredibly special, like a 1v6 clutch.
I am not certain about any of the numbers, this is just a concept. Honestly, I just want to play a cool ninja.
