Hush
Skill 2: a wave that silences the enemy's skills for two seconds.
Status: Built · Last checked: 14 Nov 2026
A short wave in front of your hero that silences the enemy: for about two seconds they cannot use skills or their ultimate. Their weapon and guard still work. It does no damage. It is the default skill in the second slot, and any hero can use it.
How to do it
| Device | Button |
|---|---|
| Keyboard | W (without holding up) |
| Gamepad | B |
| Phone | Skill key 2 |
The enemy must be close, in front of you. It also works in the air, once per airtime.
When to use it
- When the enemy's ultimate bar is full: silence stops the ultimate too.
- Just before the enemy would heal or shoot.
How you see it
A silenced fighter has a crossed mark over the head, and their skill icons turn red.
What beats it
- Stay out of reach, get behind the caster, or jump over the wave.
- Guard it: it costs a little stamina.
- Perfect guard it: the silence is sent back onto the caster.
- The skill Calm ends a silence at once (see the seven newer Arts).
Why it cannot be repeated without end
After a silence ends, that fighter cannot be silenced again for a moment, and Hush rests for longer than that. So one caster cannot keep an enemy silenced.
Nerd section: the exact numbers
| Family | Dusk (an Art: any hero can use it) |
| Slot | Skill 2, defensive (W / B / key 2) |
| Cost | 20 stamina |
| Cooldown | 8 seconds (480 frames) |
| Cast | 0.57 seconds (34 frames); the wave goes out after 0.17 s (frame 10) |
| Reach | 64 pixels in front of the caster, 34 pixels tall |
| Effect | Silenced for 2 seconds (120 frames): no skills and no ultimate |
| Damage | None, and no stun |
| In the air | Yes, once per airtime |
| Guarding it | Costs 8 stamina |
After a silence ends, no control effect can take hold on that fighter for 3 seconds. Hush's cooldown (8 seconds) is longer than the silence plus that protection (5 seconds).
