How Rat King beats Haze

Brawler vs Assassin

You have the health; they have the burst. Make them fight you long — every second past their first combo is in your favour. Buy defensive items early and stay near allies.

Your game plan as Rat King

A scrappy frontliner who makes your bullets work against you.

Lane
Rat Swarm lowers Bullet Resist with every bite. Royal Pestments deflects bullets back.
Mid game
Scrap Grenade slows, and you can melee it to redirect it.
Late game
Rule, Ratannia! makes your team slow-immune and tankier. Plant it before the engage.
