How To Play
Althea can hit hard from a distance and has decent tricks up her sleeve with her gadgets.
​
Her basic ranged attacks deal significant damage and extra damage with her passive. Precision Shot is great for Towers, Mobius, Dwellers or that last guaranteed hit to secure a kill. Her Protection Gadget is another way to cause flak damage but also provides defense (even pre-emptively) if in a sticky situation. Althea's Dead Decoy Gadget is a way of feigning death if you are in fear of an ultimate targeting you - just watch for when you next HAVE to activate. Her ultimate again is a high precision shot dealing flak damage, beware positioning as it can effect your ally's.
Althea works well alone but having a support that can reduce her cooldowns.
