Pursuer

The Pursuer is a sleek paper outrider folded onto a motorbike — the fastest melee fold in the game. It never stops to brawl. Instead it lances straight through its target like a jouster, slashing as it roars past, then wheels around and lines up for another pass. That relentless motion makes it deadly at running down anything that tries to flee. The Pursuer is an advanced fold: only the Prime or a Protege can fold one, and only at a Prototype Plant.

At 9.0 movement speed the Pursuer outruns almost everything on the field. It is not a stand-and-fight brawler — with only 150 health it will lose a toe-to-toe grind — but its jousting passes let it deal damage without ever sitting still under return fire.

Strategy

The Pursuer is a hunter. Use it to run down fleeing units, chase off harassers, and dive enemy resource lines to slash workers before wheeling away. Because it lances through its target rather than parking on it, it keeps its speed advantage the whole engagement — lean into that with hit-and-run passes rather than committing it to a static line, where its thin health will get it surrounded and worn down. Pair it with heavier folds that hold the front while your Pursuers pick off anything that breaks and runs, and send them after siege units or casters trying to reposition. Keep them clear of massed anti-air and dense formations; their strength is picking targets on the move, not trading blows.
