Gameplay[]
In-Game Information[]
A former street racer, he savors the rush experienced when he turns on his AC's overboost function. Rarely stationary at any point during combat, he constantly jets to and fro around the Arena. He is quick to abandon battles where he feels outmatched.
Strategy[]
Cascade will often start off by Overboosting from his starting position, and continuing to do so until he needs to recover energy. In between his Overboost intervals, this is where he will shoot you with his rifle or rockets. Though not exactly threatening, his weapons' fast fire rate may make it cumbersome to dodge the shots. Thankfully, Cascade isn't competent enough to accurately gauge opportune moments to strike, so take advantage of this.
Due to his penchant for Overboosting, more often than not he will run himself out of energy, or end up overheating himself. Take advantage of this and lay into with attacks of your own when he becomes vulnerable - he should go down quickly if done well.
