Vivi, a rock star with exceptional talent and widespread fame in the music industry, bought her way into Rogue Company by providing them with valuable intel on a Jackal infiltrator. Her proactive, impulsive, and adrenaline-fueled personality is infectious and inspires her Rogue Company teammates to push beyond their limits and achieve victory.
ViVi is a rockstar rogue that’s ready to shake up the scene by rallying her team during engagements and then sliding through the frontline and shredding with her Dual Boyar SMGs. Stage Presence allows ViVi to boost her allies’ health and movement before breaching a position to give her team the edge, or while breaching to help give those allies some breathing room. Smooth Moves will help her slice and dice the combat field and quickly make her presence felt during a team fight!
- Ability: Stage Presence
Stage Presence is an area-of-effect buff for teammates within 20 meters of ViVi. - The effects of the ability are as follows:
- The range of the ability is 20 meters.
- Stage Presence heals and/or overheals affected allies (depending on their current health) for 30hp, with the overheal decaying at 5hp/second.
- Grants affected allies 10% movement speed for 10 seconds.
Smooth Moves is a modifier to her dodge roll. While sprinting, ViVi can activate dodge roll to enter a powerslide that allows her to hip fire while sliding. Enemy rogues will need to adjust their positioning in the presence of ViVi to account for her ability to slide around corners and pressure sensitive angles for her team.

The Dual Boyar SMGs are equipped with an extraordinarily high rate-of-fire and a dual function to assist them in mid-range engagements. While hip-firing at close ranges they should shred opponents in a storm of bullets. The Boyars also feature a dual functionality where they fire at 75% of their rate of fire while aiming over shoulder in exchange for incredible accuracy. This should put them in a strong position for dueling assault rifles and longer range SMGs in the mid-range.

New LTM: Signature Perks
Currently, all perks are character-neutral. We want to test out how character-specific perks will feel! Gl1tch, Dima, ViVi, Fixer, and Scorch are featured in this Rooftops-only King of the Hill mode, and include two perks that juice up their active or passive abilities, or encourage a new play-style.
Balance Changes
Rogues
- Fixer
As a design rule, we are evaluating mechanics that allow Rogues to straight up ignore mechanics of other Rogues *COUGH COUGH LOOKING AT YOU RONIN* . We don’t believe this is making the game more fun and interactive for players who get counter-picked. While this change should barely be noticed against rare armor foes, it gives opponents with epic and legendary armor a moment more breathing room in engagements versus Fixer. Below is an illustration of how we thought about the effects of this change. - Full Metal Jacket (passive): Armor ignore 100% → 70%.
- Dima
Given his kit synergy with explosives, we want to test the effect of an impact grenade on his ability to clear space for his team. - EMP Grenade replaced with Impact Grenade
