#tacticals

snap draggin

bites enemies for 10-15 dmg to health, and pings for Cas9 on map

or

pulls multiple enemies to a center point (like ash's snare) for 5-10 dmg, immediate release

take stalk

attaches to first enemy to come by, alerts Cas9 pins outline to them for 5 seconds, can plant multiple stalks

(kind of like Hound, but is triggered rather than instant and can only attach to one player at a time)

(...so sort of like ash’s passive but better)

branch out

creates a small platform to walk across, up to 6(stealing Catalyst's concept tact because I’m still bitter)

thorn down

thorny patch that deals damage and slows because Alec was right when thinking of it first

(fucking catalyst)

aloe there

pulls players within range to 1-2M away, causes 5-10 dmg to enemies(after typing it out, i thought “oh fuck that's just Roadhog's hook”)(or path’s zipline if you attach it to an enemy)

at bay / bushed away / bush back

pushes enemies back a small distance (like 2-5M) for a small amount of damage, pretty much a punch at a distance(might rework this because the image of it funny as hell to me)

patched up

something something health

power plant

something something shields

names without abilities

bark's bite

rough patch

plot twist 

thyme crunch

party thyme

hem locked

feeling vine

log in/out

I’m already dead set on his passive being called “Upsy Daisy” which, revives allies in a quicker time and gives them a small bonus of health

He was supposed to be named Catalyst because his ult relied on vials of catalyzing agents (technically they can also be called an enzyme). He holds out his bowl and you can choose to heal or harm and throw a distance (either the L or R button). Sort of like Moira? Only it doesn’t bounce around and is grounded, lasting for... 8-10 seconds? Not sure if that is a fair amount of time.

I remember when the dev’s were testing out abilities with the Dummy’s Day Out event. They had an ability that allowed an immediate heal for a certain radius. Problem with that included you being the center of the heal, and it also healing enemies (from this event, they fixed Mirage’s ult into ‘dance party’. remember seeing 6 mirages standing in a field? good times).

If you think it takes too much time, think of Newcastle’s, Path’s or Ash’s ults. You need to aim those strategically and can’t immediately spam throw them down without tact like you can with Lifeline’s, Caustic’s or Horizon’s. I mean you can, but it might not be as accurate if you want to plan things out.
