Playstyle
Tyto the Swift is an extremely fast, slightly squishy melee assassin that uses hit and run tactics to inflict bleeds and drain health pools before executing low health targets.
- Tyto often lurks on the sides of the battlefield, waiting for an opportunity to harass squishy enemy backliners.
- Tyto's dodge attack, RMB, and Q all have great mobility, and are just as useful when chasing down enemies as when escaping.
- A lot of Tyto's damage ignores armor, making them great at dealing with heroes that can buff their own armor, or the armor of their teammates.
- Tyto's speed is a great defensive asset, and moving quickly and unpredictably is key to avoiding damage from enemies.
Deadly pressure and clean movement are key skills that make a Tyto player shine.
Skills
Upgrades
LMB - Talon / Jump Talon / Dodge Talon
Unlocks an improved dodge attack with an 8s cooldown.
When on cooldown, the regular dodge attack is used instead.
Hidden Talon
- On hit, Blade Dance cooldown recovers by 2s.
RMB - Swoop
Swoop
- On use, resets the cooldown of Blade Dance.
Q - Blade Dance
Blade Dance
Cooldown increases from 5-12s the longer the attack lasts.
- Cooldown increases from 6-12s by +0.35s each hit.
Hitting additional targets with each hit does not increase cooldown further.
E - Fang
Fang
- For 5s after hit, can press E again to use Unity.
F - Blur / Passive
Passive
- When regenerating stamina in combat, gain
+20+25 per second. 7s5s combat timer.
The in-game tooltip incorrectly states a value of +20 stamina regen, when it is actually +25.
The in-game tooltip states only that health regeneration begins 2s earlier, but the actual effect reduces the combat timer, meaning that sprinting and jumping will also cost no stamina 2s earlier.
Passive
- On dodge, +15% damage with basic attacks for 3s.
- The above damage buff is always active for backstab damage, even without dodging.
This affects regular attacks, jump attacks, and dodge attacks, but does not affect the LMB R - Hidden Talon upgrade.
The in-game tooltip incorrectly states that the 3s buff is also gained on backstab hit, but it is not.
Talents
Swoop
- When below 50% health, reduce cooldown by 3s (
12s9s).- When below 50% health, reduce cooldown by 3s (
If RMB R - Swoop de Loop is taken, the cooldown when below 50% health is reduced from 9s to 6s.
Notes
- Dodge attack's forward movement is great for chasing enemies or for escaping on hit and runs.
- Dodge attack, then immediately jump and Blade Dance to send yourself flying! Try using it off a high ledge.
- Be careful not to overshoot with Swoop. It is usually better to undershoot your target and let the landing attack carry you through them.
- If the enemy team starts defending against you consistently, try approaching from a different part of the map - unpredictability is key, especially since you don't have stealth.
