Riot Games introduces Gekko, a new Los Angeles-based Agent for its shooter Brave. Gekko is the 22nd playable agent. He has the ability to summon hordes of malevolent creatures that will hunt down enemies. Gekko’s look is heavily inspired by skater/punk culture, as seen in the trailer, with his skateboard and clothing style. The minions he can summon can also look like graffiti, to give his character a more East L.A. look to reflect his background.
Gekko has a variety of abilities that the player can use, such as Dizzy. Gekko will fire Dizzy into the air, and while it’s there, it will shoot any enemies in its line of sight, temporarily blinding them. He has another minister wingman. When this ability is activated, he will shoot the Wingman towards enemies, and it will fire a fiery explosion at the first enemy it sees. This ability can also be used to defuse or plant spikes.
His other abilities include the Mosh Pit, which allows him to throw a Mosh like a grenade, and when it lands, the Mosh will mimic and then explode across the area. Gekko’s ultimate ability, Thrash, lets him link fire to Thrash’s mind, and when activated, it will lunge forward and explode, stun any enemies within its radius.
Gekko’s Agent contract is available now and will unlock a variety of cosmetics to match the new character. Everything included in Gekko’s agent contract is listed below:
- 3 sprays
- 2 player card
- 1 gun buddy
- 2 titles
- 1 shorty skin gecko
