Pathojen’s Abilities

  • (Q) Emotional Rescue – Throws a healing circle on the ground that restores HP to teammates.

  • (E) Shroom Wall – Creates a destructible wall that can block doorways or enemy movement.

  • (T) Killer Queen – Places a poison trap that deals damage over time when triggered.

  • (Passive) Chemical Romance – Immune to poison damage, making her resistant to certain enemy attacks.

How to Play Pathojen

  • Keep your team alive

    • Use Emotional Rescue in safe areas so teammates can heal without getting shot.

    • Time your heals wisely—you don’t want to heal when an enemy is about to wipe your team.

  • Control the battlefield

    • Block key chokepoints with Shroom Wall to cut off enemy advances or protect teammates.

    • Place Killer Queen traps in high-traffic areas to punish aggressive enemies.

  • Positioning is key

    • Stay behind teammates—you’re not built for frontline fights.

    • Use cover while healing so you don’t get targeted first.

Final Blurb

Pathojen might not deal big damage, but her ability to heal, block paths, and set traps makes her a huge asset to any team. Play smart, keep teammates alive, and lock down key areas for maximum impact!
