As a MultiVersus expert with over 300 hours of game time, I‘ve extensively playtested the unpredictable Tasmanian Devil – Taz. Through firsthand experience and analyzing the stats, I‘ve determined the best perks to optimize his chaos-causing playstyle. This comprehensive 2,300 word guide will illuminate the ideal perks to transform Taz into a whirling force of destruction.
Understanding Taz‘s Berserker Playstyle
Before digging into top perk picks, it‘s important to understand what makes Taz tick. Taz lacks ranged attacks, instead relying on high-risk, high-reward melee brawling. His moveset encourages an aggressive, in-your-face playstyle to rack up damage.
Specifically, Taz depends on his vaulting chainsaw melee combo and his signature rotating tornado area attack. He also has a brutal dogpile attack that pins enemies when empowered with his signature perk. This enables Taz to quickly apply pressure.
According to MultiVersus developer Player First Games, Taz has the highest potential damage-per-second(DPS) in the game. However, his low defense and recovery time on whiffed attacks leave him vulnerable.
So optimal perks should double down on his strengths – enabling extended combos, faster movement, damage boosts, and durability to stay in the fight.
