How to play
Hyperreal - Fundamentals
Press and hold Basic Attack when the gauge is full to enter Hypermatrix:
Every 3-Ping will deal additional damage and add a Sight Point, up to 4
Blue Orbs will be converted to Red or Yellow Orbs
Basic Attack will consume one stored bullet to generate 3 Orbs of the same color
Hypermatrix ends when the gauge runs out or when pressing Signature Move
Exiting Hypermatrix will trigger a powerful finisher that consumes all Sight Points to deal increased damage
Outside of Hypermatrix:
Each 3-Ping will be generate one bullet and up to three can be stored at once
Using Signature Move will cause Time Lag Calculation and unleash a powerful AOE attack
It's recommended to switch characters while Hypermatrix is in cooldown
Hyperreal - Additional Information
Core Passive details:
Holding Basic Attack during Hypermatrix will consume one Sight Point to increase the duration by 2 seconds
Pressing Basic Attack once will enter a sniping stance during which the duration of Hypermatrix will not decrease
In this stance Hyperreal will automatically dodge any incoming attack
Pressing Basic Attack again will briefly unpause Hypermatrix to shoot
After Hypermatrix ends 3 Orbs of the same color will be generated
Advanced techniques:
It's possible to activate Hypermatrix by holding Basic Attack during a Blue Orb Ping.
Since Hyperreal's swap-in attack is a Blue 3-Ping this can be done immediately after he enters the field
The initial movement of Red or Yellow Orbs counts as a dodge and can avoid enemy attacks to activate Matrix
3-Pings during Hypermatrix generate Sight Points immediately, making it possible to dodge cancel their animations to reach 4 Sight Points faster in time-sensitive gamemodes
Canceling the Hypermatrix version of a Red 3-Ping loses damage, unless done shortly after Lee throws his firearm case at the ground
