Lady Deathstrike is a Tech Champion. Being a Tech Champion, she has a Class Bonus against Mutant Champions, but is weak to Cosmic Champions.
Bio[]
Yuriko Oyama, in a desperate attempt to punish Wolverine for stealing her father’s legacy, transformed herself into a cyborg. Now, armed with powerful healing capabilities and deadly adamantium claws, Yuriko has forsaken her humanity and adopted the title of Lady Deathstrike.
Mechanics[]
Lady Deathstrike needs to build Ferocity charges by inflicting Ruptures and launching Special 2 attacks. Once she reaches enough Charges, the Ferocity Passive activates and she becomes deadlier, her Special 1 is more powerful. However, in order to maintain Ferocity active for as long as possible, she must never block an attack. Activating Special 2 while Ferocity is active does allow Lady Deathstrike to block a few hits without losing Ferocity.

Abilities[]
Always Active
- Incoming Bleeds and Poisons potency is reduced by 90%, and the Willpower Mastery potency is reduced by 50%.
- Against Mutants, Lady Deathstrike Ability Accuracy cannot be modified.
- All nail attacks inflict a Rupture Debuff, dealing 75% of Lady Deathstrike’s Armor Rating as Physical Damage over 6 seconds.
Dev Notes: The only attacks that aren’t nail attacks are the last light attack, and the first hit of the Special 1.
Ferocity
- When inflicting Ruptures or when struck, gain a Ferocity Charge plus one per Armor Up Buff.
- At 75 Charges, gain a Ferocity Passive for 3 seconds, or 9 as a Defender, but start paused. Ferocity starts paused until Lady Deathstrike Blocks an attack. While no Armor Up effects are active, Ferocity expires twice as fast.
- While Ferocity is active, gain +X Attack Rating and Special Attacks become Passively Unblockable, but Lady Deathstrike cannot gain new Ferocity Charges.

- When the Opponent activates a Special Attack 1 or 2, 25% chance per Armor Up effect to gain an Unstoppable Passive for the duration of the Special while reducing the Offensive Ability Accuracy of the attack by 15% per Armor Up, to a max of 75%.
Dev Notes: The secret for Lady Deathstrike’s high damage is to never block in order to keep Ferocity active. If you are fighting a Champion with a particularly hard to dex Special Attack, make sure to use the Special 2 to gain a small safety net for Ferocity, allowing you to block a few hits.
Machine Body
- Start each fight with an indefinite Armor Up Buff, increasing Armor Rating by X. If this Buff is removed by any reason, it restores itself after 12 seconds.

- Every 25 hits in the Combo Meter grants an indefinite Armor Up Passive, increasing Armor Rating by X. 20% chance to remove a stack when struck or when Blocking while in Ferocity. Max:3.

- Lady Deathstrike’s Regeneration Rate cannot be modified. True Damage hits remove one Regeneration effect.
- All Heal Block effects on Lady Deathstrike are immediately removed, but her Willpower Mastery is removed for the original duration of the Heal Block.
Dev Notes: Lady Deathstrike Rupture damage scales with Armor Rating, not with Attack Rating, so it is imperative to not lose those Armor Ups in order to deliver high damage.
Nanobots Regenerator
- When struck by a Special Attack 1 or 2, gain a Nanobots Regenerator Passive for the duration of the Special Attack, Passively Regenerating 90% of hit damage taken over 0.5 seconds. While suffering from Bleed or Poison, Nanobots regenerate an additional 20% flat.
- While Deathstrike doesn’t have her personal Armor Up Buff, Nanobots Regenerator is disabled.
- While Nanobots Regenerator is active, Lady Deathstrike becomes immune to Armor Break and Rupture Debuffs.
- When Intercepted, the potency of Nanobots Regenerator is reduced by 10% flat for 15 seconds. Max: 5. When this effect activates it refreshes all existing stacks.
Dev Notes: When fighting against Lady Deathstrike you need to disable her personal Armor Up Buff so you can damage her with Special Attacks, but in order to do that you need to Armor Break her before throwing the Special, because she becomes Armor Break immune during her Opponent’s Special Attacks.
Heal Block – Second Medium Attack
- Inflict a Heal Block Debuff, preventing the Opponent from Healing for 6 seconds, paused during Deathstrike’s Special Attacks. Mutants cannot gain Unstoppable or Unblockable effects while Heal Blocked.
Dev Notes: Lady Deathstrike’s upkeep of her Heal Block can be very high.
Signature Ability[]
Cybernetic Assassin - Passive
- The number of hits in the Combo Meter required to gain an Armor Up Passive is reduced to 15 and max stacks is increased by 4.
- Ferocity also increases the potency of Ruptures by X% per Armor Up.

Dev Notes: Gaining Armor Ups faster will ramp her damage even faster, but the Signature Ability also allows Lady Deathstrike to actively punish Champions with Regeneration rather than just prevent their healing.
Special Attacks[]
Special 1 – Precise Butchery
With machine-like precision, Lady Deathstrike slashes all the Opponent's vital point.
- On activation, inflict a Torment Debuff for the duration of the Special, causing all damaging Debuffs to last 6 seconds longer. All Ruptures are paused during the Special.
- Ferocity: +X Attack Rating and Torment lasts for an additional 8 seconds.

Dev Notes: This Special really shines while Ferocity is active, but while Ferocity is not active you might want to use it to spend some power so your Special 2 aligns with the activation of Ferocity.
Special 2 - Savage Assault
Without any hesitation, Lady Deathstrike attacks her Opponent with inhuman ferocity.
- Gain 25 Ferocity Charges.
- Ferocity: Regain and pause Ferocity with its duration increased by 6 seconds. If this effect unpauses, it pauses again if no attack is blocked for 3 seconds.
Dev Notes: The Special 2 is very useful to gain a lot of Ferocity charges to speed up the activation of Ferocity. Once Ferocity is activated, a player capable of Dexing their Opponent’s Specials might ignore this Special altogether and just loop Special 1 forever. If you are not confident about being able to Dex the Opponent’s Specials, activating Special 2 will allow you to block some attacks, but Dex as many as you can and avoid blocking whenever possible.
Special 3 - Relentless Strikes
Lady Deathstrike overwhelms her Opponent with a series of fast, precise and deadly strikes.
- Gain a non-stacking Relentless Passive, increasing Attack Rating bonuses from Ferocity by 35% and allowing Ruptures to be inflicted through Block for 30 seconds, paused while Ferocity is active.
Dev Notes: In most fights, going first for Special 2 then loop Special 1 will provide the most damage, but longer fights you might benefit from adding Special 3 to your loop.

Strengths and Weaknesses[]
Strengths[]
- Special Tanking
- She can regenerate 90% of Special Attack hits, dramatically reducing the damage she takes from Special Attacks. She does not regenerate damage from Damage Over Time effects or bursts of damage from Specials.
- While in Ferocity, she can go Unstoppable during the Opponent’s Specials, allowing her to more easily avoid damage or to punish the Special.
- Ferocity lasts for a long time
- As long as you don’t block, Ferocity will remain active, increasing her overall damage considerably the longer it remains active.
- Heal Block
- She can maintain an active Heal Block for a long time.
Weaknesses[]
- Armor Break, Nullify
- If her personal Armor Up Buff is removed, she cannot regenerate damage from Specials.
- Her Rupture damage is based on her Armor Rating, if her Armor Rating is reduced her damage is also reduced.
- Low Health
- If you can turn off her defensive abilities, her health is quite low.
- Rupture Immunity
- Most of her damage comes from Ruptures, if the Opponent is Immune she won’t be able to do a lot of damage.
- High Skill Cap
- She is not easy to play.
Recommended Masteries[]
- Coagulate
- This mastery will help her to reach 100% Bleed resistance.
- Inequity
- She applies a high volume of Debuffs on the Opponent, making good use of this mastery.
- Recoil Masteries
- She resists a lot of the damage done by those Masteries plus she can get some extra healing from having Bleeds and Poisons on her. She can potentially ignore the damage done by these Masteries because she gets extra healing from Nanobots Regenerator while suffering from Poisons and Bleeds.
Recommended Relic[]
- Vision
- Lady Deathstrike Heal Block gains extra benefits and her ability to punish Regeneration increases greatly.
