Tejo's Abilities

The hero, like all characters in the game, has 4 abilities. His signature ability has a cooldown of 40 seconds, allowing it to be used multiple times per round. Here’s a breakdown of Tejo’s abilities, showcasing his potential to shake up the battlefield:

  • Guided Salvo (Signature Ability):Tejo can select up to two points on the map to launch rockets, dealing damage with multiple pulses. It functions similarly to K.O.’s grenade, but with multiple impacts, giving it both offensive and area-control potential.
  • Stealth Drone (C Ability):This invisible drone moves around the map, revealing enemy positions within its range. Once it reaches its destination, it activates suppression and reveals the enemies, offering valuable intel to the team.
  • Special Delivery (C Ability):Tejo can deploy a sticky grenade that explodes, disabling enemies within its blast radius. The right-click functionality allows players to bounce the grenade off surfaces for improved tactical gameplay.
  • Armageddon (Ultimate Ability):Tejo’s Ultimate lets him choose a point on the map to call in an airstrike. This ability delivers massive damage in a large area, clearing out the zone and forcing enemies to retreat, giving your team the upper hand.
