Mainly against people who thought he should get a tutu. after a tragic “accident” stole his legs, experimental metal grafting was used to give him metal legs.

However, this particular operation was sponsored by the military, so these legs came with a few… Extras. Most notably, the rocket powered roller blades. Or C.A.M.E.S. (Combustion Assisted Movement Enhancement System) to give it its proper name.
After swiftly escaping his government, he found his way to London, where he fights for money, and protection.

Heat feet useful for if Blades wants to give, but someone else is attacking. With this, he can take care of both simultaneously.

Cames is useful to quickly get up close to enemies, or retreat fast, or even quickly rush from spawn.

How to counter:
Not the strongest merc, and is quite slow without ability. Keep at medium range and attack after he’s used his ability.

If he’s gibbing with his feet, attack. He may try to engage you head on while trying to gib too. Use you movement advantage against him.
