'Overwatch' Character Lucio Arrives at 'Heroes of the Storm'

Rommel

"Overwatch" characters are iconic and one of those who made a mark is Lucio, who is set to come to 'Heroes of the Storm.' He is the third Overwatch character to do so. Before he was Zarya and Tracer.

"Overwatch" character Lucio has for his ability "Wall Ride". Through this, it allows him to slide along impenetrable terrain and pass by other units speedily. Soundwave deals provide damage and retreat enemies back. Crossfade, on the other hand, allows him to switch his healing and speed boosts and level it up to improve the efficacy of the two boosts.

On matters relating to heroic abilities, players have the option to choose from Sound Barrier or Reverse Amp. Sound Barrier operates in the same manner as in Overwatch. It provides a shield to approximate allies and protects them from enemy attack. Reverse Amp, on the other hand, causes the healing boost to provide further damages to foes and speed boost to approximate enemies. It comes with the incidental benefit of increasing the duration of 'Amp It Up.'

While an official release date has not been disclosed for Lucio, Blizzard has, nevertheless, announced that he is set for arrival at the public test realm soon. Both 'Heroes of the Storm' and 'Overwatch' have ongoing events. The former has a lunar festival that will continue to run until February 14. On the other hand, the latter offers its players a CTF mode in order to earn new items until February 13. As for Lucio, the following are some of his traits and abilities.

Wall Ride (D). This allows Lucio to walk through other units when moving alongside an impassable terrain. Doing so increases his movement speed by 20%. Furthermore, this effect adds to other movement speed bonuses. Soundwave (Q). This allows Lucio to inflict damage to enemies in a cone-shaped area and push them aback. Crossfade (W). Players can play one of the two tracks that indirectly provide allied heroes with a 'Speed Boost' or a 'Healing Boost' in a large radius around him/her. In doing so, players can activate 'Crossfade' in order to swap tracks.

Healing boost has for its function the restoration of a small amount of health every second to Lucio and approximate allied heroes. On the other hand, Speed boost has for its function the increase of the movement speed of Lucio as well as nearby allied heroes by 15%. Amp It Up (E). This feature allows Lucio to raise his Crossfade track volume in about three seconds, thus amping speed boost to 45% increase in movement speed and significantly adding the healing rate of healing boost. Sound Barrier (R). This feature allows Lucio and nearby allied heroes to gain a strong and massive shield that speedily decays within the next six seconds.

Reverse Amp (R). This feature allows Lucio's Crossfade track to blast at enemy heroes for four seconds. This causes healing boost to inflict damage for every second of its use and thus allows speed boost to slow movement speed by 45%.
