Let’s talk about Anarki. He’s a great example of how not all Champions in Quake Champions are gritty, marauding, galactic warlords like Scalebearer. We also have counter-culture, 90s-esque sh*t-talkers who are loud and weird and let’s be honest: sick in the head.

Love him or hate him, Quake III Arena veterans will recognize Anarki immediately from his days flying through the maps on his signature hoverboard. The board’s back, the mohawk’s back, and so is his drug-addled, cybernetically enhanced transhuman attitude. Anarki is all about speed – and needles – and his hoverboard means you are going to be moving fast. Really fast.

For even more info on Anarki’s backstory, go to his just-launched page on the game’s web site.

CHAMPION PROFILE: Anarki – Transhuman Punk

Starting Statistics:

• Starting Health: 75
• Starting Armor: 25
• Speed: 320

Active Ability – Health Injection: Taking too much damage? Good thing for you Anarki is well-versed in various performance enhancing … treatments. Use the Health Injection Active Ability to give Anarki a quick heal mid-match. Juice it up, baby!

Passive Ability – Hoverboard Air Control: Anarki’s hoverboard is a brutal bonus. Anarki is already one of the fastest Champions in the game, but the hoverboard means he can actually gain speed as he strafe-jumps around the Arenas, reaching a ludicrous velocity. In addition, his hoverboard awards a special Passive Ability that allows players more control in mid-air to turn sharply and chase down enemies or escape those who dare follow him up a jump pad.
