- Slicer uses the Supernova Blade for melee burst DPS.
- The documented seed loadout pairs Devastator Blaster with Plasma Sword.
- The core loop is: dash in, blade combo a priority target, dash out, then finish with explosive pistol burst.
- Best documented team support is Guardian cover and Spotter debuffs.

Synergies and playstyle tips
- Use the Supernova Blade to burst a priority target, then disengage before ranged enemies pin you down.
- Keep the Devastator Blaster ready for self-defense when the target is outside safe melee range.
- Pair with a Guardian so the barrier can cover your retreat window.
- Pair with a Spotter so debuffs land before the Slicer commits to the dive.
Counters and struggles
- Ranged-heavy waves are the documented counter, especially when there is no flanking cover.
- If the arena does not give you safe entry and exit paths, treat every melee dive as temporary.
