PLAYSTYLE

How Miks works

Keep your smoke timing synchronized with the push while using Harmonize and M-pulse to help teammates win the contact fight.

PRACTICAL GAMEPLAN

What to do during a round

Place Waveform cover for the entry, then choose whether M-pulse is more valuable as healing or a disruption tool in the current situation.

ABILITIES EXPLAINED

Abilities & ultimate

What each ability does and when to use it in a real match.

01Basic

M-pulse

Throw a device with selectable healing or concussive output; choose the effect your team needs.

02Basic

Harmonize

Empower yourself and an ally with a combat boost that rewards a coordinated fight.

03Signature

Waveform

Select locations on the tactical map and deploy vision-blocking smokes.

04Ultimate

Bassquake

Release a sonic shockwave to displace and hamper enemies ahead.

ULTIMATE GUIDE

When to activate the ultimate

Bassquake pushes sound energy forward to disturb opponents. Use it as a signal for a coordinated attack rather than a solo duel.

A common mistake to avoid

Do not treat M-pulse as both healing and crowd control simultaneously; select its mode deliberately and communicate it.
