Ah heartbreaker, my first ever ultra rare also weirdly enough my first ever dimensional. I remember i got him one month into the game along with bluelien as i got my first season pack and first dreadful at the same time.   


Back then heartbreaker was kinda a polarising figure with some claiming he was insane and some claiming he was awful. His teleport is extremely lethal but his high cost and high cooldown means theres a massive window inbetween his pulls that you can use to reliably bully the hell out of him meaning players who were aggressive by nature absolutely curb stomped this thing and laughed at it, and passive players would get systematically picked off by it. I used to be on the side of it being fairly counterable outside of specifically the once lure which it used to be insanely good on.

 But these days, heartbreaker has fallen off. It hasnt changed at all but theyve printed much better displacement options some of which like le shovell are just too good at bullying heartbreaker even if you manage to get to a slow enough game. Others like doc holiday are just… straight power creep. Seriously, docs just directly better than heartbreaker almost all of the time. And the once lure, the only map that heartbreaker was legitimately great on got straight up banned. It got too many complaints by the player base so the devs just came out and banned the thing, its never coming back into rotation. So heartbreaker now is just kinda forgotten. It can occasionaly counter chuck or win a match in an extremely dead stalemate but thats kinda it, and akira and doc holidae both do its job much better than it so unless your a newer player with a low collection you arent really ever gonna use the thing. 

i dont wanna write it off completely as i do have it and dont have doc, so i wanted to test it out against the new butlers as theyre slow and susceptible to getting picked apart. It may be a useful tech against them and encourage me to actually use my first ever ultra rare instead of just letting it sit on the sidelines.

Heartbreaker got kinda forgotten.
