Versatile zone controller and tank-buster. Up close, hitting a tank or the Heist safe with the center of his cactus grenade lands multiple spikes at once for massive burst; at long range, Curveball guarantees chip damage around walls.

Drop his Life Plant cactus gadget directly in front of yourself when dueling single-shot snipers (Piper, Angelo, Bea, Nani) to absorb 3,500 damage and heal 1,400 HP when it pops.
