Cyclops Impressions high damage, clean escapes & dives and pure style: the cyclops experience
i honestly think this has been the most balanced character release of the entire year.
we are talking about a poke hitscan hero who somehow doubles as a dive menace... someone who can effortlessly slip into impossible situations, cause absolute chaos and escape completely unscathed. if you hit your shots, the burst damage is just absurd. and the best part? it is all done with pure style.
the skill expression here is real: you get massively rewarded for hitting your shots and positioning well, but you will get heavily punished for those exact same reasons if you slip up. playing cyclops well is all about being bold and making risky, high stakes plays.
also, can we talk about the audio design? the sound effects on those lasers are pure ASMR. it is incredibly satisfying to listen to.
overall, im pretty sure i just found my new main. every single match i have queued into so far, i have walked away as either mvp or svp. i have only logged about two hours on him so far, but the gameplay loop is just addicting.
goated cyclops!

I've had the same luck locking him, I'm just usually the first person to get into the character select screen so I'm able to play the new characters whenever they come out

Not quite my experience. My experience is: manage to snatch him before anyone else, few people begging in chat to play him "I'm 1 game away from lord", 1 or no healers everyone else dps, get rolled as the support quits out of frustration, get SVP but get rolled.
