Pulsing Scary Red Berzerker
A berserker refers to an ancient Norse warrior who fought with intense, almost uncontrollable fury and rage, often described as entering a trance-like state during battle. These warriors were known for their ferocity, seeming to have no regard for their own safety, making them highly feared in combat. The term is derived from Old Norse, where "ber" means "bear" and "serkr" means "shirt," potentially referencing warriors who wore bear skins or fought with the strength and fierceness of a wild animal.
Berserkers are also widespread across the face of the earth to this day, notably in the depths of the server "hypixel" in minecraft which contains a minigame called "skyblock" containing something known as dungeons, where berserker is considered a class of bloodlust, destruction and death as it clears through rooms with incredible meelee force as well as a formidable swoosh of arrows sprung forth from a Juju Shortbow or Terminator.
Digressing in a huge jump across universes in the form of gaming communities, The game Raid:Shadow Legends also contains a plethora of such references. Raid: Shadow Legends is a popular free-to-play mobile and PC turn-based RPG developed by Plarium. The game takes place in the fictional world of Teleria, where players assemble and upgrade teams of Champions to battle in various game modes, including PvE campaigns, PvP arenas, dungeons, clan bosses, and special events. The core gameplay revolves around turn-based combat, where each Champion has unique skills, affinities, and roles. Players can summon these Champions through a gacha system using resources like shards.
The game is known for its deep Champion customization, including gear sets, mastery trees, and skill upgrades, giving players extensive freedom to build and refine their teams to meet the game's challenges.
Raid: Shadow Legends doesn’t have traditional "classes" like some other RPGs or even MMORPGs akin to hypixel Skyblock. However, there is a specific Champion named Berserker, who fits the archetype of a ferocious and aggressive fighter, much like the legendary Norse berserkers. The Berserker displays outwardly strong technique and strength that come along with it's highly challenging unlock stuff. As for it's in-depth attacking abilities, It has a basic, a special and a passive ability. Its Basic ability is Hack(to pieces) which attacks one enemy. This skill has a chance to grant an extra turn if the target is killed. This makes Berserker a useful Champion for quickly clearing waves of enemies in PvE content or finishing off weak opponents in PvP.
Its Special attack is something incredible, something truly beautifully interwoven into the strings of true norse mythology. "Sever", A beautiful, masterfully crafted allusion to the severing of ties between gods and the afterlife alike, valhalla and vanaheim, heaven and hell, truly showing its significance both historically and literally in game, a reminder of the shadows of the vikings of scandinavia looming over us. It is a hard-hitting attack that targets one enemy. It deals more damage the lower the enemy's HP is, making it particularly devastating as a finishing move. It works well with Hack to Pieces since both abilities can snowball with consecutive kills.
Lastly, the passive attack is known as "Aura". This provides us with some time to sit down and debate about its importance. It Increases the Attack of all allies in the Arena by a percentage when placed as the team leader. This is a useful bonus for early-game players or those who need an extra offensive boost in PvP Arena battles. Overall, an amazing boost to oneself as a headstart, or even akin to a cornocoupia for your teammates!
