We grew up fearing Quicksand. Pycko was born to wield it!

[p]
Pycko and its evolution Drakash are crashing into Temtem: Swarm with fire in their paws and earth under their claws. These two aren’t here to play nice: they’re here to blaze trails, shake the ground, and make sure no swarm survives unscathed. Their scrappy hit-and-run energy and new Earth techniques are built to bury the competition.[/p][p][/p][h2]Pycko 101[/h2][p][/p][p]Pycko is all about balancing reckless flames with clever positioning. Every time it makes physical contact, it leaves enemies burning and gains a quick burst of speed to slither out of trouble. This fiery hit-and-run identity makes Pycko feel like a burning bowling ball bouncing across the battlefield. Hard to pin (get it?) down, even harder to ignore.[/p][p][/p][h2]Let's Talk Techs[/h2][p]Right out of the gate, Pycko comes with Earth Drill, its signature starting move. Two earthen drills sprout on either side of Pycko, chewing through enemies and dealing steady damage as you come in contact with the swarm. It’s a perfect tool for carving out space when the swarm closes in.[/p][p]Don’t worry though, Pycko hasn’t forgotten its Fire roots. It can tap into the full arsenal of Fire techniques as well, giving it the flexibility to scorch wide groups or snipe key threats as needed.[/p][p][/p][h3]New Earth Techniques[/h3][p]Sludge Gift: A nasty surprise that tunnels underground before erupting in an area-wide blast. Enemies think they’re safe until it pops up beneath their feet. Boom! Taste sludge, punk![/p][p]Quicksand: A control tool that leaves a sticky pit, pulling enemies toward the center while slowing them down. Great for setting up combos with teammates or keeping threats off your back.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][h2]What about that Ultimate?[/h2][p]When Pycko really gets cooking, it unleashes its Hot Sand Bath ultimate. Pycko glows from a sudden increase in temperature, raising its defense significantly while punishing anyone who dares get close. Every contact deals damage in addition to getting burned by Pycko’s trait. It’s like standing too close to a furnace that just came to life and the perfect moment where Pycko goes from prey to predator.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]Shattered Eclipse patch drops on September 22nd!
