based on 'another alt fire shotgun bruiser'

derby queen

primary - https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Shortstop a fast 'shotgun pistol' that can knock you back at very close range to balance it compared to shiv shotgun

alt fire - shove enemies or push off terrain and zoom outward rather than in

1 - burning backflip - backflip and send a projectile forward, on hit deals spirit damage along the path it traveled and melee damage to the main target. hitting a wall during the backflip causes a second backflip.

2 - reckless lunge - hold down to lunge headlong, pushing enemies away from the first enemy hit then mantle over the target. can target walls to leap onto them then perform the attack across the wall.

3 - rollerblader - gain increased fire rate and reduced reload time while airborne and the momentum of jumps or dashes is maintained briefly after landing.

4 - roller derby - send out a spirit squad that fans out from your position and reconverges around the nearest enemy hero to your crosshairs, can reactivate to manually set a different point. enemies take spirit damage and are pushed out of the way of each spirit squad member.
 
I love the idea of bringing back the hmc momentum as part of a hero's kit :) that's so fun!
yeah this game has so much movement tech i thought it would be fun to have a character that can chain movement techs and get an offensive boost as a reward so the hero can work as a mobile shotgun brawler.

quick image to show the personality off

wip a fate’s tale - the witches of the soho coven use games for magic. some prefer pickup games of bunco over wine, using the results to divine future events or fulfill spells. others prefer things to be much faster paced, and mix some elbows and blood in with the magic. and so, the roller derby scene in new york came to be dominated by the soho smash. the coven’s former leader was so engrossed in the sport that she was ousted by the others, leaving her to fight and reclaim her title.

Princess Junker Queen + Lucio is a vibe: But where’s the punish window (let alone its signal) for opponents? Without those, balancing sands the fun crunchy edges off a hero’s play space

More movement interplay from the kit’s basics with wall sliding as the ult would be, while a lazy fix, an answer to what I’m getting at

the ulti is a very loud punish window, its also designed to be particularly easy to dodge if you can break line of sight.

2 has a cooldown unlike lucio passive, and it is a multi tool where it can be used on floors. if she uses it offensively to chase on the ground she has to wait to use it on a wall. using it on a wall means she has to wait to use it again while potentially out of position.

3 lets her keep the 1 and 2 speed briefly, but that can be punished too with any of the cc the game offers can lock her down hard. slowing hex and chain gang being the most punishing.

A Fate’s Tale - The witches of the SoHo Coven use games for magic. Some prefer pickup games of Bunco over wine, using the results to divine future events or fulfill spells. Others prefer things to be much faster paced, and mix some elbows and blood in with the magic. And so, the roller derby scene in the Cursed Apple came to be dominated by the SoHo Smash. The SoHo Coven’s former Headmistress, Regina Molenzo, was so engrossed in the sport that she was ousted by the others. While she supposes simply beating Bonnie Holly’s face in would restore her as Headmistress, getting the Patron to kill
her outright would be much better.
