Hi everyone! I hardly post but I came up with this and figured why not. I did a bit of googling and couldn’t find a suggestion with similar characteristics. If this has been previously suggested, feel free to remove mine.
I have a suggestion on how to Buff Cypher:
Tripwires Movement:
For his tripwires, we should have it so that he can place the tripwire down, and then select a trajectory on where the Cypher would like to have the trap move towards when activated by a key bind. Some restrictions would apply:
- The travel distance is based on the surface the Tripwire is on; It must be flat, since it cannot skip/bounce/hop onto another surface and continue traveling. In this case, the tripwire would stop at the edge,
- The direction could either be limited to Horizontal and Vertical, but the real fun comes when you’re able to dynamically create your own trajectory, such as a diagonal line.
- Once activated, you cannot return it to the original spot.
- The wires are still invisible while moving, but follow the same rules for visibility: If an enemy is nearby, and the wire is moving towards them, they will begin to see the wire. This can provide some interesting plays depending on height placement, direction, and activation. This would give Cypher a chance for Offensive plays rather than Defensive.
Tripwire Interlink
Another option, or in conjunction with the previous idea, I feel that maybe Cypher’s Tripwires could be interlinked from one end to another if the connection seems proper enough.
- This could be done to where if you’re looking for a spot to place the wire, and another wire is nearby, it could either show green on the disc area so that it tells you that the interlinking will occur.
- It could also be an option to activate it so that you aren’t always stuck with interlinking tripwires, that way you have the option to do Tripwire movement or Tripwire Interlinking.
- Activating Tripwire Interlink can only occur before the round starts.
I wanted to see what others thought about this.
I apologize for any typos in advance and bad visual representations, i am just tired from work and wanted to share this haha.
Best regards,
Syruphs
