First look at Heroes of Newerth’s new ninja-lady hero: Silhouette
Let’s face it: ninjas ought to be a part of our daily lives. With the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fading into nostalgic memory and Ninja Gaiden shunning the PC, gaming could definitely use more of the stealthy spies. MOBA games are no exception, and S2 Games is about to help fill the ninja-void with the latest addition to Heroes of Newerth. Pack your throwing stars, we’ve got the world-first look at this female footsoldier before she’s patched in this Friday.
We’ve only been given a very rough framework of how Silhouette will play, as S2 Games wants to keep you on your toes in anticipation for Friday, Rebecca Black style. That means ability names without descriptions and no in-game screens. But what we have, we share freely with you!
S2 Games describes Silhouette
Role: Silhouette is a ranged Agility hero based around quick, unpredictable movements and attacks. She’s definitely got carry potential, but also houses an array of early game action tools to let her get in the fray early on. Silhouette has the arsenal of any self-respecting ninja: she owns a vast collection of shiny throwing projectiles, and always has her trusty grappling hook with her. Ninjas are tricky, and Silhouette is no exception; even her Shadow is a weapon.
Abilities:
- Death Lotus
- Tree Grapple
- Relentless Salvo
- Shadow
Playstyle: Silhouette’s combat style reflects her creative and resourceful nature. She uses her blades defensively and offensively, at both close quarters and long distance. Her grappling hook is a versatile tool for her to gain combat mobility or take advantage of the power of a nice, strong piece of wood. Silhouette’s Shadow allows her to almost be in two places at once, and she prefers to execute her foes in a quick and painful flurry.
