=== Update 1 ===
=== Hero Spotlight: Victor ===
==== Hero Spotlight: Victor ====
A man who walks the line between life and death. {{HeroIcon|Victor}} has learned to harness pain into power, shocking himself with Jumpstart to get his adrenaline rushing and his faulty heart pumping. He welcomes incoming damage with open (albeit mismatched) arms, channeling it into his Pain Battery and granting enemies a taste of the pain he endures. Get too close and risk getting caught in his Aura of Suffering, but hey, at least you'll be suffering together! And just when you think you've taken him down... Think again. - 'They don't have what it takes to kill me.'
