A modified scrap golem with a big heart and a bigger hook arm, Bebop is a potent threat on the battlefield when supported by his team. Not only can he Hook enemies and pull them into his allies, Bebop can attach sticky bombs to nearby foes and launch them in any direction with a powerful uppercut. For any foes left standing, Bebop's Hyper Beam can cut across the battlefield and finish them off.
5 • On Attach, disarms the target for 3.5 seconds.
Damage gain per hero hit is permanent for the rest of the game.
The percentage damage increase is applied to the total damage of the bomb. Formula: ((Base dmg + Upgrade + Spirit scaling) * stack multiplier).
EX: With the "+80 Damage" upgrade, 6 bomb stacks (+15% damage), and 33 Spirit; Sticky Bomb will deal 264.14 damage (120 [Base] + 80 [Upgrade] + 33*0.9 [Spirit scaling]) * 1.15 [Stack Multiplier]
Can target allies.
Can target self by using alt-cast functionality.
Hook
Launch out a hook that grabs and reels in the first enemy hero it hits, dealing damage. Target will be placed where you are facing.
Range:
25m
Cooldown:
23s
Damage: 40
1 • Bebop deals 30% more bullet damage against hooked enemies for 10s
2 • +30m Cast Range
5 • -11.5s Cooldown
Hook damage is dealt after Bebop finishes reeling in the target.
Hyper Beam
Charge up your laser to unleash a powerful torrent of energy that deals damage and slows enemies' movement and dashes. You have slow movement and turn rate for the duration. If activated in the air you will hover while unleashing the beam.
5 • Hyper Beam heals Bebop for 100% of its damage on heroes. 33% on non-hero
Hyper Beam has 3 damage areas: area near arm, the beam itself (2.9m width), and area around the end of the beam.
Hyper Beam deals damage in an area 5m radius centered around the beam arm, and 4m radius centered around the end of the beam, indicated by purple circles.
Any Hyper Beam damage that occurs within about ~9m radius of the beam arm is reduced by 25%, even main beam and end-of-beam damage.
This reduced damage penalty area scales with cast range bonuses; for example, +35% cast range will increase the penalty area from ~9m to ~12m.

Background
“
Forged by the hands of a widowed junk yard attendant; Bebop was more than just some scrap golem laborer... he was the son she couldn't have. Together they would work in the iron yard during the day, and listen to jazz at night. But now, Bebop's creator has fallen ill and while Miss Shelly wouldn't approve of the activities that Bebop does at night to pay for her medicine, what she doesn't know can't hurt her.
Fixed Sticky Bomb T3 duration ending once the bomb went off rather than the full 5s duration.
Sticky Bomb T3 changed from "On Cast: +5m Move Speed and +20% Fire Rate for 5s" to "On Cast: +5m Move Speed and +25% Debuff Resistance for 6s" (applies retroactively).
He has an ongoing feud with Lash. Several voice lines reference their feud and rivalry in blood sport. They share another connection as the only two heroes that start the game with sprint speed, Bebop and Lash having 3m/s and 1m/s respectively.
Bebop is the only hero that starts with more than 0% bullet resist (10%).
Bebop's current model is likely temporary and is based on a robot model from when the game was still called Neon Prime.
Bebop is voiced by JB Blanc, who is known for voiceworks in many popular videogames (e.g. Diablo in Diablo III, Braum in League of Legends, Saxton Hale in Team Fortress 2, etc.).
