Designed for players who want to ambush and surprise opponents, they can turn the tide of battle in an instant.<\/p>\n<p>At the core of its arsenal are two powerful drones:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Pulse Trap Drone<\/strong> \u2014 This drone staggers any enemy who enters its field. The pulse trap drone enters stealth upon deployment, making it a great way to ambush any opponent who falls into the trap. It only triggers when HEL is nearby, so timing and placement must be considered for a precision strike.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Reflector Drone<\/strong> \u2014 This clever device doesn\u2019t just block incoming fire \u2014 it sends it right back to your opponent. Position it strategically to shield yourself and counter enemy attacks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Perhaps its most unique ability is arguably its deception kit, which can fully disguise Hel as an enemy striker. This prevents opponents from being able to target or even attack you as long as you\u2019re locked onto an enemy. This illusion breaks as soon as you attack, making it crucial for you to choose the perfect moment to attack an unsuspecting opponent.<\/p>\n<p>These awesome abilities make HEL a powerful force on the battlefield. With the right strategy and execution, it can act as a silent predator \u2014 once revealed, it may already be too late.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Alphard \u2013 Sending a Shock to the Battlefield<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;uploadedSrc&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\\\/sites\\\/2\\\/2025\\\/09\\\/Alphard_1080_KV1-4df05e0de9af8589414a.jpg&quot;,&quot;figureClassNames&quot;:&quot;wp-block-image size-fullsize&quot;,&quot;figureStyles&quot;:null,&quot;imgClassNames&quot;:&quot;wp-image-211889&quot;,&quot;imgStyles&quot;:null,&quot;targetWidth&quot;:1920,&quot;targetHeight&quot;:1080,&quot;scaleAttr&quot;:false,&quot;ariaLabel&quot;:&quot;Enlarge image: Mecha Break Screenshot&quot;,&quot;alt&quot;:&quot;Mecha Break Screenshot&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" class=\"wp-block-image size-fullsize wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1900\" height=\"1080\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2025\/09\/Alphard_1080_KV1-4df05e0de9af8589414a-1900x1080.jpg\" alt=\"Mecha Break Screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-211889\"\/><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-label=\"Enlarge image: Mecha Break Screenshot\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"context.imageButtonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"context.imageButtonTop\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"\/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg><br \/>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<p>While Hel rewards deception and precision strikes, Alphard can shake up a match with devastating, team-wide attacks. As a fellow medium attacker, it utilizes long-range assault capabilities and powerful attacks to pierce through enemy lines.<\/p>\n<p>What really sets them apart from other strikers is its Rapid Assault Mode. This high-speed charge breaks enemy lock-ons and makes foes vulnerable to powerful follow-up attacks.<\/p>\n<p>Once rapid assault mode is activated, Alphard can unleash its signature move:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Electro-Tail<\/strong> \u2013 Deploys an explosive wire that can devastate any enemy in its path, bypassing fluid armor, dealing physical damage, and staggering nearby enemies. On top of this, electro-tail also emits a dangerous smoke that inflicts interference on enemy strikers and can even destroy nearby drones.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These compounding factors make it necessary to use great caution the moment an opposing Alphard enters its rapid assault mode.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New Strikers.
