Playstyle
Imani is a squishy long-range sniper that deals heavy single target damage from afar.
- She thrives at the very back of her team, usually on a high perch with good sight lines and nearby cover.
- RMB is a scope that lets her fire hitscan sniper shots across the map for tons of damage.
- Her focus is 3 piercing shots fired using the same scope.
- Imani's damage comes entirely from hitting sniper shots, so she is a good choice for players that enjoy sniping in other games.
Great aim, safe positioning, and deadly targeting will make Imani's opponents constantly scramble for cover.

Notes
- There is a bug that sometimes causes Imani to fire an unscoped burst while scoped.
- If you find yourself getting ambushed by a melee assassin, don't panic! Smoke bomb will allow you to hide and weaken the enemy temporarily, and you can sprint to safety once it ends.
- Use your focus right after firing a scoped shot for a quick burst of damage.
- Imani's focus has high base damage and doesn't scale much from focus bars, so use it at 1 bar often.
- Seek out positions that have a wide view of the map that also have terrain nearby to use for cover.
