Abilities
Star Power
Extra Toxic
Poisoned enemies deal less damage while the poison is on them, which blunts whatever brawler he has just dived.
Star Power
Carrion Crow
Both his daggers and his Super hit harder against any target already at or below half health.
Gadget
Instapoison
20s cooldownCashes in every outstanding poison tick at once and converts the total into a shield worth more than the damage dealt.
Gadget
Slowing Toxin
17s cooldownThrows a single kunai that damages, poisons and slows the first enemy it hits for a couple of seconds.
Hypercharge
Utility Knives
+55% stats while activeHis Super throws daggers on takeoff as well as on landing, so the escape does damage at both ends.

reviewed 19 Jul 2026A fragile assassin who poisons everything he hits and whose Super is a leap in and out rather than a commitment.
Early game
Throw daggers at anything within range to keep poison ticking; the chip damage is free and it charges the Super without him committing.
Positioning
Hover at the edge of his dagger range, close enough to poison and far enough that his twenty-eight hundred health is never tested.
Using your Super
His Super is a round trip: use it to jump in on a poisoned target and immediately jump back out, not as a one-way engage.
Common mistakes
- Jumping onto a full-health target instead of waiting for the poison to soften them
- Treating him as a frontline assassin when he is one of the squishiest brawlers in the game
- Spending the Super to escape a fight he should never have entered
- Against healer cores, where his poison cuts their sustain
- Showdown, where poking every player and finishing the weakest is a whole strategy
- Against tanks, since his poison does not care how much health they have
By mode
Solo Showdown
Poison every player you pass and take only the finishing fight.
Bounty
Poison forces enemies to retreat, which is a free star without a real fight.
