Supernova: BRO Announced

Bandai Namco's Sci-Fi MOBA/RTS Hybrid, Supernova, has revealed a new commander that will be joining the roster. B.R.O, also known as the "Battle Robot Operations" Model, is a melee bruiser that isn't tied to energy usage. He uses his arm blade to normally make melee attacks, but also utilizes it for some of his abilities:

  • (Q) Whiplash:  Hits enemies in a line and pulls himself towards them, rooting them in the process.
  • (W) Pump It Up:  Two passive enhancements.  Increases basic attack power and knocks enemies into the air every 3rd autoattack with a 5 second cooldown on the same target.
  • (E) Bring It!:  Passively blocks incoming basic attacks every few seconds.  Cooldown is decreased with every autoattack.  Active grants armor that decays over 5 seconds.
  • (R) Droid Rage:  Deals instant weapon damage and slows all nearby enemies for 5 seconds.  Increases the range of his arm blade and Whiplash and increases attack speed.  Has a very low cooldown.

Supernova is currently in Alpha 6, and you can sign up for the alpha by checking out the official website here.
