Needle Man

A machine-gun rushdown type class, though not as braindead as he may seem at first. You'll want to conserve your ammo to make use of his altfire, which can either kill or cripple opponents caught by it if followed up by a mainfire barrage. The key to Needle Man is to keep up the pressure, without blowing all your ammo.

Health: Semi-High

Speed: Normal

Jump Height: High

Ult Charge: Medium-Short

Mainfire: Needle Cannon
Fires several needles in a burst-fire machinegun fashion. Semi-accurate, low damage but fast RoF. While firing in the air, Needle Man's descent is slowed.

Altfire: Needle Hammer/Needle Tether
Launches the needles on his head on a tether. When used by tapping altfire or with low ammo, Needle Hammer will simply deal damage without the tether effect. But when ammo is high enough and altfire is pressed, Needle Man will stun a single target hit by the attack, and pull them towards him. After an enemy is reeled in, they are locked in a stun state for a brief moment and Needle Man is free to attack. This can also be used in a manner similar to the Wire Adaptor, allowing for mobility, but preventing ammo regeneration until the ground is touched again. When reeling in, Needle Man has a hitbox on his body that can deal rapid contact damage. Can be cancelled by pressing the jump button. This technique comes from SAR.

Ultimate: Hyper Needle Mode
Enters a powered-up state, where Needle Man's body glows rapidly. Mainfire's RoF decreases, but fires spinning needle missiles from SAR that explode on contact and deal heavy damage. Altfire has the range and reel-in effect of the held version. As Needle Man walks, he spawns the large Needle Pokers from his stage behind, which pop out of the floor in his path. These needles do absurd damage to anyone they touch.

Enemy Assist: Hari Harry
Throws an Enemy Assist capsule, which spawns a Hari Harry. This mechanical hedgehog first sprays its needles in every direction, dealing average bullet damage per each. Does this 3 times, before curling into a ball and starting to aimlessly roll around. Deals moderate contact damage and bounces off walls. A great area control helper. This assist has no limit to how many you can spawn, but only when one summoned starts rolling.
