The new sun-fuelled, star-powered fighter makes a blinding entrance in Lucid Games’ vehicle combat MOBA.

Press release:
LIVERPOOL, UK – APRIL 25, 2019 – Lucid Games’ futuristic 5v5 vehicle action MOBA, “Switchblade“, welcomes a new sci-fi vehicle to their fighter class today. Sundog is the latest addition to Switchblade’s now 18 strong vehicle roster and is set to be one of the most powerful vehicles in the battle arena.

After scientists at the Super-Cern high energy physics laboratory successfully led their fighter design to victory in the 3153AD amateur Switchblade leagues, they decided to turn pro and bring their sun-fuelled little scrapper to the professional Switchblade circuit.

Harnessing the power of its self-contained star, the Sundog’s kit offers a wide-range of utility and good old fashioned damage, making this Fighter Class a formidable adversary in both PvP and laning.

See Sundog’s abilities below:

1. Main Weapon – Phase Array – A solid mid-range hitscan with a high Attack Speed.
2. Primary Ability – Fusion Core – The Sundog gathers matter from its micro-star and launches it in a straight line; all enemies in range of Core’s AoE take damage.
3. Secondary Ability – Nano Banner – The Sundog drives a syringe into the ground, releasing a swarm of nanobots that heal all allies in range.
4. Super Weapon – Solar Flare – This channels the micro-star’s energy into a single concentrated beam that deals damage and knocks enemy vehicles back.
