  • Base: Fires 8 waves of bullets at enemy clusters
  • Kingpin: Adds 3 extra waves of bullets

Optimal Strategy:

  • Focus on rerolling low-cost carries (Shaco or TF)
  • Aim for 5 or 7 Syndicate for maximum impact
  • Consider Dynamo units (especially Aurora) for late-game scaling
  • Prioritize early 2-star Shaco with items to stack AD
  • Pair with Vanguards for frontline stability

The trait excels in reroll strategies, with flexibility in choosing which units to enhance through Kingpin hats.
