Cyclops (New Xavier School) is a Mutant Champion. Being a Mutant Champion, he has a Class Bonus against Skill Champions, but is weak to Tech Champions.
Bio[]
The ultimate X-Man. The ultimate traitor. As a straight-laced youth, Scott Summers was recruited into the first generation of X-Men by Professor Xavier. Projecting forceful optic blasts from his eyes, he was a formidable defender of mutantkind. But after murdering Xavier under control of the Phoenix Force, Summers has gone from exemplar to pariah, founding his own underground mutant school away from his one-time allies.
Mechanics[]
Cyclops has hard hitting, critical Special Attacks, which are further enhanced through a very strong synergy from Professor X. He has ways to increase his Critical Rating and Critical Damage, as well as Armor Breaking the Opponent on Special Attacks to increase his damage significantly.

Dev Notes: This boost to your Critical Rating gives you a high chance to land Critical Special attacks, increasing your damage!
Special 1 - Optic Blast
Cyclops uses his Ruby-Quartz visor to focus a beam of energy.
- 50% chance to inflict an Armor Break Debuff, removing 1 Armor Up Buff and reducing Armor Rating by X for 5 seconds.

Dev Notes: This Special Attack is the one to try to use as often as possible. When you bring along Professor X, you want to build just under your Special 2, and use your Special 1. Then quickly land a couple hits, and use your other Special 1 to make use of the extra Armor Break Debuffs for even more damage!
Special 2 - Vigilance
Two rage-filled punches and a kick daze the opponent long enough for Cyclops' Optic Blast to teach them a lesson.
- 55% chance to inflict an Armor Break Debuff, removing 1 Armor Up Buff and reducing Armor Rating by X for 5 seconds.

Synergy Bonuses[]
Strengths and Weaknesses[]
Strengths[]
- High Chance to Crit
- Cyclops has many ways to access Critical Hits, even through the opponent’s block.
- High Critical Damage
- Cyclops can increase his Critical Damage on Special Attacks, allowing him to hit harder when paired with certain synergies.
- High Chance to Armor Break
- In Cyclops’ base kit, he has a chance to Armor Break the Opponent, but when paired with Professor X, his armor break chance is 100% on each hit of the Special Attack, allowing him to tear through armor.
Weaknesses[]
- Critical Resistance
- Champions who resist Critical hits reduce a Cyclops’ damage quite a bit, so try to avoid those match-ups.
- Debuff Purification / Armor Break Immune
- Champions who can Purify Cyclops’ Armor Break Debuffs or Champions who are Immune to them also take away a lot of Cyclops’ damage, avoid those matchups if you can!
- Reliance on Synergies
- Cyclops relies on synergies to get a high chance to Armor Break the opponent, which in result increases his damage. In scenarios where you cannot bring his synergy partners, he will not deal the same damage.
Recommended Masteries[]
- Recoil
- A large portion of Cyclops’ damage comes from Special Attacks, so increasing that damage helps a lot.
- Cruelty
- Running Cruelty increases Critical Damage rating, and Cyclops relies on Critical Hits for his damage.
- Precision
- Cyclops already has a high chance to land critical hits, running Precision will increase the chance even more, allowing him to increase his damage.
Trivia[]
- Cyclops (New Xavier School), Cyclops (Blue Team), and Vision (Age of Ultron) are the first Champions to be officially renamed. Before Update 9.0, Cyclops (New Xavier School) was called simply Cyclops.
