Breach: abilities and tips

Key CBasic

Aftershock

200 credits · 1 charge

You send a charge through a wall or an obstacle. It explodes in two beats after a short delay and deals heavy damage in a small area. Enemies are forced to move or die, and you can use it to dislodge a defender behind a wall.

• Throw it into an angle where you know an opponent is hiding, then let a teammate finish the enemy who moves.
• Use it after Fault Line: the stun slows enemies, who then have a harder time leaving the blast zone.

Key QBasic

Flashpoint

250 credits · 2 charges

You fire a charge through a wall that explodes quickly and blinds players who look at it. Since defenders have little time to react, your team can enter without being seen. Your allies are blinded too if they look at the explosion, so warn them.

• Call out "flash" out loud before throwing, otherwise your teammates lose sight along with the enemies.
• Place it through a wall so it explodes at head height just as your Duelist leaves their angle.

Key ESignature

Fault Line

1 free charge per round · 1 charge · Cooldown: 50 s

You charge a wave that passes through walls in a straight line. It concusses the enemies it hits, who are slowed and disoriented. It is free, so it also serves on an eco round to set up an entry or block a push.

• Throw it at the Spike zone just before entering so the defenders are concussed when your team arrives.
• On defense, fire it into a choke point as soon as you hear footsteps: slowed attackers are easier to hit.

Key XUltimate

Rolling Thunder

8 ultimate points

You trigger a quake that moves forward through walls in a wide band. The enemies it hits are thrown into the air, stunned and vulnerable. Your team can then take a site without facing a fair duel. It is best used when everyone is ready to enter.

• Call out the ultimate and wait for your team: the stun lasts 4 s, not enough to go around the map.
• Combine it with a teammate's ultimate if possible: enemies that are knocked up and stunned are very exposed for 4 s.
