DRIFT: Increased control while sliding.
- Axle accelerates and moves faster than others while sliding.

AdjustNITRO GATEDeploy a speed gate that sends users into a boosted slide.Source line
NITRO GATE: Deploy a speed gate that sends users into a boosted slide.
- Stepping into a Nitro Gate forces users into a speedy slide, where they have greatly increased velocity and lateral control.
- This effect lasts for up to five seconds as long as speed isn't naturally slowed.
- Manually stopping the slide will end the effect (although it can be maintained through quick b-hops).
- The gate is team agnostic, meaning it has the same effect on friendlies and enemies, though Axle will be the only one with increased slide control.
AdjustKICKSTARTDeploy an enemy-seeking drone that displaces targets on impact.Source line
KICKSTART: Deploy an enemy-seeking drone that displaces targets on impact.
- Axle fires a drone straight out in front of her, where it traverses close to the ground in a straight line as it scans for enemies in a wide FoV.
- Once an enemy is spotted, the drone seeks towards the target, closing the gap to get within detonation range.
- If the target cannot outrun or destroy the drone before detonation, it will knockback all targets in range up into the air.
- Victims are revealed while airborne, take explosive damage, and are briefly stunned.
