"Not much is known about this mysterious pile of clothes, other than the fact it has some cool sunglasses. Discovered by Gus, Shade was given a name and now the two spooky Brawlers haunt the Ghost Station together."
Shade Portrait

Shade is an Epic Brawler who has moderate health, a variable damage output, and immense utility with its Super. Its Traits allow Shade to passively charge its Super if an enemy Brawler is within a radius of it, and move over water. Shade attacks by hugging in a wide and close-ranged arc, that deals double damage in the center. For its Super, it dashes forward and momentarily passes through obstacles. Its first Gadget, Longarms, increases the range of its next attack. Its second Gadget, Jump Scare, temporarily slows enemies down in small radius around Shade. Its first Star Power, Spooky Speedster, temporarily increases Shade's movement when it hits an enemies in the center of its attacks. Its second Star Power, Hardened Hoodie, reduces incoming damage for the duration of its Super.

Traits

Radius

"This Brawler charges Super from staying close to opposing enemies."
Trait-Radius

Shade's first Trait is a 6-tile circle around it. Similar to Buzz, all enemy Brawlers within this circle charge Shade's Super by 6.75% per second each or over 15 seconds for one enemy. It also charges Shade's Super faster if there are multiple enemies inside the radius. Its Super still charges even with invisible or bush-camping enemies. Ally Shades will have their Trait radius shown, while enemy Shades will have their Trait radius hidden.

Water

"This Brawler can move over water."
Trait-Water

Shade's second Trait allows it to be able to move on water.

Attack: Haunted Hug

"Shade hugs its opponents with a wide embrace, accidentally dealing damage, and doing more damage to those caught in the center of the hug. It can also hug enemies through walls!"

Shade swings its arms, hugging enemies in a wide, 150 degree arc, including enemies behind walls. The attack, much like Frank's and Ash's, takes time to wind up, at 0.35 seconds. However, Shade isn't immobile while attacking and there isn't any travel time, so the attack instantly takes effect after the delay. In addition, if enemies are in the center of Shade's attacks, it doubles the damage.

Super: Incorporeal Form

"Shade leaves the physical world and can move directly through the environment. It also gains a movement speed boost."

Shade's Super is a short dash, which then allows it to pass through enemies and obstacles for 6 seconds. In addition, it gets a 30% movement speed boost for the duration of the Super. After 6 seconds, Shade transforms back into its normal form. If Shade uses another Super during its alternate form, the duration of the Super will refresh and the speed buff will stack.

Gadgets

Longarms

"The next main attack has 50% longer range."
GD-Shade1

Upon activation, Shade's next attack range is increased by 1.67 tiles. A Gadget symbol will glow above Shade's head signaling this Gadget's activation, as well as a glowing attack joystick. This Gadget's cooldown begins after the attack is used.

Jump Scare

"Shade spooks nearby enemies, slowing them for 4 seconds."
GD-Shade2

Shade creates a 3.33-tile radius of ghosts around it that slows enemies by 20% for 4 seconds.

Star Powers

Spooky Speedster

"Hitting opponents with the center of Shade's main attack gives a short movement speed."
SP-Shade1

When Shade hits an enemy in the center of its hugs, it gains a 15% movement speed buff for 1 second. However, the speed buff stacks if Shade hits more enemies in the center.

Hardened Hoodie

"Shade gets 30% damage reduction while in its Incorporeal Form."
SP-Shade2

Shade gains a shield that reduces all damage it takes by 30% for the duration of its Super.
