He can easily restrict movements of an entire team, and can also serve as a great tool for area denial. The high damage numbers that he can easily dish out with his abilities alone, truly makes him one of the strongest character in Season 8.

His passive skill is probably the most powerful ability the game has ever seen. He can shoot all types of  grenades accurately at his enemies at a much faster speed as compared to his peers. The combination of passive grenade skill, cluster bomb, and the motherlode can easily overwhelm an entire squad quite easily.

Team composition with Fuse

With unmatched firepower, Fuse can easily take advantage of his teammate’s abilities. It is already known that he can dish out high damage numbers while locking enemies in the small area. It can work incredibly well with crown controllers like Horizon and her singularity, as it can disable the entire team while fuse can laydown some old fashion beat-down.

Other characters with a similar area of effect abilities like Banglore, Gibraltar, and Caustic can also offer good synergy. These Legends can deal massive damage in a large area that compliments Fuse.
