SKILL EXPLANATION & HOW TO PLAY JOKER


PASSIVE: PUNCH LINE

After a brief moment outside of combat The Joker loads a bullet into his pistol. His next basic attack deals more damage and slows for 90%. Use this to finish the low health enemies or keep them from running away. This is also a core part of your burst damage combo.


SKILL 1: THE KILLING JOKE

This is a long range skill shot that deals a lot of damage. It can be used to poke down the enemies to get them low or use it to finish of low health enemies that are trying to escape. This is the ability you use at the end of your combo.


SKILL 2: PICK A CARD, ANY CARD

This ability removes all slow effects and makes you immune to them for the duration of the ability and gives him a speed boost. It also makes him immune to physical damage which helps him escape or tank any high damage ability that deals physical damage.


SKILL 3: CANNED LAUGHTER

This ability makes you dash to the target and stun the enemy, then dash back to your original location. This is the ability that you start off your combo with.


HOW TO PLAY JOKER:

 

In the early game you should poke the enemy while also clearing the minion wave with you first skill. When you reach level 4 you could go for a kill on a squishy or low health enemy. Your main damage combo is Skill 3, basic attack, skill 1. This combo will kill most enemies or deal a significant amount of damage. You can then keep using basic attacks and your abilities to keep dishing out damage.You should always try to save your second ability to be able to avoid damage. So you can either evade, escape or tank damage. You can also use the second ability to chase the enemy or roam the map even faster.
