Paragon Reveals New Hero Riktor

A new Hero has been introduced for Epic Games' upcoming free-to-play MOBA Paragon. Riktor -- a cyborg armed with electrified chain whip (tentacles?) -- is a melee tank with a focus on crowd control. He features an attack titled Riplash which allows him to use his chains to grab enemies from a distance and pull them in -- all the while dealing damage.

Riktor's other abilities include Shock Therapy which silences enemies, and the Skewer Ultimate which creates a web of chains that damage and stun everything in their path.

Paragon is currently in beta -- with the latest event having kicked off today and running through the weekend.
