Background

“

A FATE'S TALE:

A loyal member of "The Baxter Society", an international order of monster hunters, Shiv travels across North America looking to put down creatures that prey on the living.

While his less polished nature and criminal past make some of the more traditional members of the Society wary, no one can deny his effectiveness.

Playstyle

Shiv's Serrated Knives are one of the best early-game pokes, due to their large hitbox, long range, and Bleed ability. He is often able to hold a lane solo with these alone, especially when combined with his healing ability negating the need for a support-focused character. Mid- and late-game, Slice and Dice allows for an aggressive, up-close playstyle, especially when combined with high Rage.
