Paladins® Your Champion, Your Way

The roster spans sharpshooting mercenaries, magic-wielding scholars, supernatural entities and deities from the stars, split into four roles. Frontlines take punishment and hold ground, Damage deals it out, Supports heal and buff, and Flanks sneak behind the enemy line to harass. There is a Champion for the way you like to play, and learning a new one means learning new abilities, not just a new gun. One warning worth knowing before you queue: once a match starts, you are locked in, so it pays to have a friend in more than one role.

Every Champion carries a deck of sixteen unique cards, and outside the match you pick five of them to shape how their abilities work: shorter cooldowns, longer dashes, stronger healing, whatever fits you. In the match, you buy items to adapt on the fly. The same Champion can play like a completely different character depending on the build, which is where much of the depth lives. And customization does not stop at gameplay: skins change how Champions look and sound, and you can even show off effects on your eliminations.
