All Characters from Catalyst Black

Catalyst Black is making its debut in mobile gaming with the release of a trailer on Youtube. Super Evil Megacorp previously made the free-to-play game, Vainglory, and is excited for the arrival of its new game by promoting skins for players to select and Primal beings to transform into. If you are interested in what options the game has, here are all the characters from Catalyst Black.

All Catalyst Black Characters Confirmed So Far

At the time of writing, there are a total of five confirmed characters that we know about, but it’s likely that we’ll see the roster expand soon enough. For now, we’ve listed all five characters down below, along with a breakdown of their personality traits and move sets.

Sunder

Sunder is an aggressive Primal you can transform into if the player wears the assigned mask. This god from another realm has unique powers that are subject to change upon the release of Catalyst Black. His three primary powers consist of Leap Slam, Breath of Rage, and Primal Roar.

Sunder’s Leap Slam has the character jump in the air and slam on the ground dealing damage to nearby enemies in the area. The next ability, Breath of Rage, enhances the fury within him and produces a beam to attack anyone in front of the beast. Primal Roar is also amplified by his anger and unleashes a howl that makes Sunder grow in size, speed, and power.

Relics, such as Feral Inspiration and Rampage, assign the passive ability and perks for your primal transformation by increasing movement speed or releasing more rage. Additionally, the attack of the beast, Slash, uses the character’s vicious claws to tear through enemies.

Issia

Issia, along with Sunder, is one of the first Primals to be confirmed in Catalyst Black. This god has the power of ice on her side, and it is not a force to be reckoned with. Her main powers are Deep Freeze, Polar Vortex, and Wing Sweep.

Deep Freeze allows Issia to harden herself with ice and hurts any enemies near her, while Polar Vortex causes damage within a snowstorm set in a particular location. The last ability, Wing Sweep, issues a mighty rush of wind to anyone before her.

Issia’s relics of Stillness, Shiver Shroud, and Seeking Storm are meant to enhance her frozen abilities by slowing enemies down and using more of her frozen powers to damage enemies. Alongside her relics, is her primary attack, Glacial Torrent, that emits a shroud of ice to anyone in her path.

Another form of the Catalyst Black character, Ancient Issia, is obtainable in-store when the availability arises and will give players a new Issia mask, gear, and a complete set of boosts.

Nock

Nock is the Primal that is popular in children’s stories, but still packs a punch in battle. The primary attack of this being is Zoom! where Nock uses a dash that attacks enemies. Her powers also consist of Faster!, Poof!, and Watch This!

Faster! does two actions at the same time by increasing the god’s movement speed and setting enemies ablaze with fire. The next power, Poof!, teleports Nock in a set location which in return wounds enemies while in transportation. Watch This! is another ability that has a firesome explosion when hitting a rival in the area.

As for Nock’s relics, one, in particular, is Playtime! which similar to Faster! with its enhancement of movement. The only difference is the relic’s encouragement to surrounding allies. The other relics are Catch Me! which intensifies Zoom!, while Hide and Seek! give the player an opportunity to switch back and forth to human and Primal form.

Torden

The righteous Primal, Torden, has a sense of pride and values comradeship. He is a protector with the attack, Smash, damaging enemies with his mighty hammer in a target location.

The first of Torden’s powers is Thunderbolt causing a bolt of lightning to illuminate a certain area damaging anyone in his way. Reckoning is also another ability that teleports the character to his hammer followed by a forceful hammer smash. Aside from his attacks, Torden offers the defense mechanism, Guardian, to shield allies within a particular area.

The relics used to supplement the beast’s passive ability and perks are Enter the Storm, Blessing of Protection, and Smite. Like the shield in his Guardian power, Enter the Storm does a similar defense for allies near him. Blessing of Protection also aids allies in protection, while Smite boosts performance for his primary attack

Jainx

Jainx is one of the last Primals introduced to Catalyst Black. With his primary attack, Violent Pierce, he sends his spear forward wounding anyone in his direction. Besides this charge, his powers and relics display Jainx’s warrior-like brutality.

One power, in particular, is the Savage Charge where the character collides and drags his enemies nearby. Corral is another ability targeted in a circular area that pulls rivals to the center, injuring them in the process. Jainx’s perks are also useful for healing himself in each attack made with the relic, Spite, and restoring health to allies by draining life from his enemies with his other ability, Dread.

These characters from Catalyst Black featured above won’t be the only ones in the game since Super Evil Megacorp hopes to attach more as time goes by. With the success of Vainglory, the future of this action-packed story looks bright with its many mystical environments and epic battles to experience in mobile gaming.

Confirmed Character Skins

When in human form, players can choose an array of character skins to play as, and switch when it is necessary. For now, eight standard skins have been confirmed by developers in a Youtube Q&A with future designs in the works.

In the selection process of characters, there is a choice of what gear to use in gameplay, including primary and heavy weapons to collect throughout Catalyst Black. Other features also maximize your Primal transformation to its full potential with its use of wearing a mask (Unlocking the Primal form) and powers for a second active ability.

Once players are satisfied with their character’s loadout, there are many modes to play, such as Hydra and Slayer. Hydra is a battle mode between players and bosses, while Slayer is a point-based system to take control over the Eventide fortress. Catalyst Black has much more to offer in modes with the game’s team versus system of 5v5 to 12v12.
