One of the many murderers you can play as.


8.  Nyx


I doubt that hair is very useful for subterfuge.

Nyx is the obligatory invisible character that most class-based shooters seem to have some interpretation of.  She Is a light champion who relies on her ability to stay alive, which makes her both invisible and invincible for a short time, while also making her unable to deal any damage for its duration.  Her passive allows her to jump off walls, which is useful for changing her position even after being bumped into the air by a rocket.

Unfortunately, Nyx’s playstyle is centered around her ability, which means that she has few ways of controlling a fight once it’s used up and she is being pursued.  She is very squishy and has no special movement tricks on the ground, so if she can’t go invisible, she can’t easily gain an advantage.  The element of surprise is no small thing, though, so if Nyx gets the jump on you she can quickly get the kill before you even know where she is coming from.

Champion Power Rating:  83/100
