| [[File:Modifier cadence crescendo.png|20px|link=]] <code>modifier_cadence_crescendo</code>.
| | {{WeaponCard|key=hero_cadence}} |
| | |
| === Grand Finale (cut) ===
| |
| An unbound fifth ability, <code>ability</code> key <code>cadence_ability_grandfinale</code>,
| |
| remains in the game files. It is not bound in Cadence's <code>m_mapBoundAbilities</code>,
| |
| and Crescendo appears to have replaced it as her Ultimate: the two share an icon
| |
| (<code>cadence_ability_4.psd</code>) and an identical 95s cooldown.
| |
| | |
| The ability was developed further than data alone suggests. Cadence's only shipped
| |
| model is a prop built for it:
| |
| | |
| models/heroes_staging/cadence/cadence_grandfinale_stage_piece.vmdl_c
| |
| | |
| This matches the ability's stage-summoning parameters below.
| |
| | |
| Cooldown: 95s · Stage Radius: 15m · Stage Duration: 12s · Radius: 12m ·
| |
| Explosive Damage: 120 · Build-Up Max Damage: 150 (300 vs non-heroes) ·
| |
| Build-Up Duration: 10s · Fire Rate Bonus: 30%

| * Cadence's model was a modified version of [[Neon Prime|''Neon Prime's'']] '''Sumo''', a predecessor of {{HeroIcon|Dynamo}}, wearing a viking helmet, likely based on the [[wikipedia:It_ain't_over_till_the_fat_lady_sings|"fat lady"]] opera singer stereotype. | | * Cadence currently uses the generic Target Dummy model. Her previous model, a modified version of [[Neon Prime|''Neon Prime's'']] '''Sumo''' wearing a viking helmet (likely based on the [[wikipedia:It_ain't_over_till_the_fat_lady_sings|"fat lady"]] opera singer stereotype), was removed from the game at some point. |
| ** The viking helmet's model appears to be a combination of the meshes for the ''Team Fortress 2'' items [https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Tyrant%27s_Helm Tyrant's Helm] and [https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Viking_Braider Viking Braider], with the latter edited to resemble braided hair behind the head.
