A guide to strikers (Lockdown)

-First post so don't be to critical, although feedback is appreciated

Overview_______________________________________________
Striker is the term for the ability in Lockdown that lets you sprint for 3 seconds and has other bonuses. It is (no bias intended) the favorite of most Tier 3 Lockdown pros. Its speed complements fast swords such as the Final Flourish and slow ones like the Divine Avenger or the Gran Faust.

Abilities________________________________________________
Pros:
- 3 second boost/sprint good for traversing large spaces quickly, escaping, and general combat.
- ASI medium
- DB medium
Cons
- 3pt health reduction
- bomb charge time increase very high

Common Strategy_______________________________________
Strikers are a favorite of swordsmen and some gunners, however bombers can't do much good for their team as it makes your bombs take forever to charge. (If someone could post a gunning guide that'd be nice, as im not a gunner) Swordsmen generally boost off to any CP that needs capturing/defending and then effectively circle their opponents to get around them for an easier pt of atk (this works especially well on Guardians and Recons). For battle with other strikers, the boost can be used to escape the enemy's circle and go in a wide arc around them to atk. It's also effective to use it to deceive or surprise players, as in going away from them and quickly boosting at them (hence Striker) and attacking and then backing out, similar to the fighting style of a wolf (which is ironic because most of these people are wolvers...). Due to the health problem, at least one heart pendant is a wise investment. Also, the sword module series of trinkets can be used along with wolver abilities and striker abilities to have incredible offensive abilities. In tier 3, swords that go well with Strikers are Divine Avengers, Gran Fausts, Flourishes, and things such as that. Gunners also have many options, although the Polaris is a poplar choice do to its devastating shock and wide attack space.
