Virulent Bound
The Mastermind can barrel forward, Infecting Survivors with the Uroboros virus or leaping over obstacles.
Press and hold the Power button to charge a Bound attack. While charging, The Mastermind moves slightly slower as he prepares his strike. When charged, press the Attack button to Bound. If The Mastermind hits a Survivor, that Survivor becomes Infected (or furthers their Infection). Should The Mastermind crash into something during this Bound, he will slam the Survivor, causing damage; if not, the Survivor is thrown, losing a health state if they are thrown into any solid object.
If Virulent Bound hits a dropped pallet or vault location, The Mastermind vaults over the obstacle.
SPECIAL EFFECT: UROBOROS INFECTION
Upon being hit by Virulent Bound, Survivors become Infected. Infected builds over time, and when fully Infected, the Survivor suffers from the Hindered effect. If a Virulent Bound grabs and slams a Survivor while they are fully Infected, The Mastermind will automatically carry them.
SPECIAL INTERACTION: FIRST AID SPRAY
At the beginning of each trial, several Supply Crates spawn. Each contains a First Aid Spray. When Infected, a Survivor can use the First Aid Spray on themselves or another, removing the Infection. Each First Aid Spray has a set number of charges. After using a First Aid Spray, the Survivor's location is briefly revealed by Killer Instinct.
