Gameplay Style: Hazard’s gameplay is a momentum-based blend between dive and brawl playstyles that will leave opponents running for cover. His overall kit is powered by abilities that empower his mobility, Jagged Wall and Violent Leap. You’ll dive into the backline to attack low-health heroes but can easily shift back to the front line to keep the opposing tank in check.

Weapon

  • Bonesepur – Fire a burst of spikes

Ultimate

  • Downpour – Rain down a torrent of spikes, immobilizing enemies

Passive

  • Vault – Scale short walls and grab ledges

Abilities

  • Jagged Wall – Launch a spiked wall that damages and knocks back nearby enemies
  • Spike Guard – Protect yourself, firing homing spikes at nearby enemies. While active, reduce damage taken and regenerate ammo
  • Violent Leap – Lunge forward. Activate again to slash at enemies, knocking them back

Hazard will be available for a limited time starting today at 6 am PST until November 25. Hazard will officially launch this December 10, when Season 14 kicks off.
