Deadlock has welcomed its newest hero, Mirage, adding an exciting twist to the game’s mystique. Unveiled in the patch notes on September 26, 2024, Mirage is the 22nd hero introduced and is set to enchant players with his unique abilities that include tornadoes, scarabs, and a formidable rifle.
Who is Mirage?
Mirage stands out with his dapper appearance—a fine coat, slicked-back hair, and a facial hair style reminiscent of Doctor Strange. With a mysterious contraption on his chest, it seems he might be harnessing the powers of a Djinn. Here’s how the game describes him:
“Mirage can envelop himself in a violent tornado to catch up to enemies and lift them up. His scarabs help him sustain against multiple enemies, and he’s always ready to help an ally or punish an enemy anywhere.”
Mirage’s Abilities
Mirage is equipped with four abilities, showcasing his potential as a damage dealer with mobility. Here’s a breakdown of each ability:
- Tornado: Transform into a tornado that travels forward, damaging and lifting enemies into the air. After emerging, Mirage gains bullet evasion for a brief period.
- Fire Scarabs: Launch fire scarabs that steal max health from enemies and reduce their bullet resistance. Each scarab can target only one enemy, but hits against heroes are three times more effective.
- Djinn’s Mark: This passive ability applies an increasing damage multiplier on targets. When the multiplier expires, it deals Spirit Damage and briefly reveals the target on the map. The final damage is calculated as the base damage multiplied by the active multiplier.
- Traveler: This channeled ability allows Mirage to teleport to an ally or enemy hero visible on the minimap. Following the teleport, he gains increased movement speed and fire rate until his next reload.
Mirage’s skill set makes him a formidable opponent in combat, emphasizing quick movements and strategic engagements.
Conclusion
With Mirage’s arrival, Deadlock expands its roster with an intriguing hero capable of high damage output and mobility. His unique abilities offer players the chance to explore new strategies and tactics, enhancing the overall gameplay experience.
Prepare for encounters with Mirage—those who master his skills are sure to become formidable contenders in the game.
