Deadlock Adds Nurse Harrow, a Support Who Makes Healing Hurt

The day is finally here! Nurse Harrow is making her way to Deadlock as the sixth and final character in the City Never Sleeps Update. It’s been a long road, and this update has pushed Deadlock to new player record highs, but Harrow is here to bring things to a close with a bang.
Nurse Harrow Joins Deadlock

Nurse Harrow is the sixth and final new hero arriving with this update, and she’s bringing one of the darkest kits in all of Deadlock.
Harrow has several ways to hinder her enemies and aid her allies, making her a truly sinister support hero. She can throw jars of leeches that sap enemy buffs and drain some of their HP. When the leeches fall off a target, she can collect them to restore Stamina and gain permanent HP regeneration and Fire Rate, alongside some immediate healing.
She can also ward herself or an ally with vapors, numbing them and delaying some of the damage they take. However, as they take damage, specters begin to haunt the afflicted teammate, dealing damage and slowing their actions when the buff wears off. Thankfully, healing can prevent some of this damage.
Harrow can also swap her needle gun for a healing syringe, allowing her to auto-attack allies to heal them directly. However, the syringe only refills when she deals damage to enemies. She’s not like Rem; her healing comes at a cost.
Lastly, her ultimate causes enemies who look at her to flee in terror. This fear effect scales with the number of leech stacks she currently has, and upgrading the ability allows her to avoid all damage while channeling it.
Thankfully, she loses some of her leech stacks when she dies, so she’ll only scale into an absolute nightmare if she manages to stay alive.
