AMMIT: NEW ROBOT BUILD
It may look clumsy and silly, but this beast is the tankiest of all brawlers. Ammit can protect itself and its teammates by projecting an Absorber Shield that converts incoming damage into Defense Points. Its drone, Scales, can also grant immunity to Defense Mitigation. Ammit is no slouch offensively either: the more damage it withstands, the more its Hippo and Kroko weapons charge up to deliver devastating retaliation. And escape is not an option — the longer Ammit keeps an enemy in its sights, the more Slowdown stacks they receive.
AMMIT
Crocodillo... robotino?
Slowdown Sight (passive):The robot has a continuously operating built-in weapon. In passive mode, the guns on its hull automatically attack enemies in a cone in front of it, applying the Slowdown effect.
Defensive Absorber (active):When the ability is activated, the robot deploys a frontal Absorber shield. All damage absorbed by the shield is converted into additional defense points. The accumulated defense points are preserved until the end of the match.
