SEASON 41 PROFILE

Buoyant Performer

Cici

Cici deals continuous damage through Yo-Yo Blitz while moving and gains two jumps from Buoyant Bounce. Curtain Call links two enemies, allowing her to wear down tanks, avoid zones and complicate fights where targets remain close.

HOW TO PLAY

Cici guide for Season 41

DAMAGE: Physical
ATTACK: Melee
SPECIALTY: Damage / Regen
MAIN POSITIONS: EXP Lane
IN THE GAME SINCE: 27 December 2023

01EARLY GAME
Activate Yo-Yo Blitz from a distance that lets Cici keep circling the target. Buoyant Bounce should cross an ability or create an exit rather than adding one unnecessary hit.
02MID GAME
Around Turtle, link two enemies who want to separate with Curtain Call and keep the yo-yo on the more durable target. Cici can continue dealing damage while avoiding the centre.
03LATE GAME
Late in the game, do not jump into Aamon or X.Borg without a second surface for leaving. Vengeance helps against focus but cannot fix a closed route.

IF / LOADOUT LAB

Three builds. One draft.
