How to play it

Play just behind your frontline so the gust catches anything that dives past them, and so he is never the first target.

Use it defensively — pushing a diving assassin off your marksman is worth more than pushing a tank you were going to beat anyway.

Common mistakes

  • Pushing enemies back toward their own team and out of danger
  • Saving the gust for a perfect multi-hit while the backline gets dived
  • Playing him at long range where his spread does trivial damage
