Amelie

**Amelie** is a character in Buildfight. She is a member of the Sniper Class, and whenever she's in the backlines, proves to be an incredibly dangerous evil.

Amelie was in her country's military for years, serving as a marksman and quickly taking out enemies in the backlines. She dated Jason while enlisted, but when the war broke out and put her country against his, they split up. Now, in order to run from him, she ran into the Buildfight Games.

## Overview

Amelie is a dangerous sniper who excels at quickly eliminating enemies hiding in the back.

### **Primary Weapon: Bolt Action Sniper Rifle**

Amelie's primary weapon is her trusty Bolt Action Sniper, which she used the most to kill her enemies. It deals 110 damage when hitting a body, and 320 damage when hitting someone's head, which can instantly kill most enemies, unless the enemy is playing Vanguard.

### **Secondary Weapon: Lever Action Rifle**

Amelie's secondary weapon is her Lever Action Rifle. When an enemy is close and low, she uses it to quickly take them out, as the lever action rifle as a higher ammo capacity and fire rate. It deals 70 damage per body shot and 140 damage per headshot, which proves it effective in closer combat or when watering down enemies.

### **Secondary Weapon: Hunting Rifle**

As a little girl, Amelie used to always hunt with her dad. Her hunting rifle is her family heirloom, which she used to use to kill her food. Now she uses it as a tertiary option to murder her enemies. It deals 91 damage on body shots and 182 damage on headshots, which can instantly kill enemy Amelie players and can easily water down low enemies. Its maximum ammo capacity is 1, but it reloads fast.

### **Tactical: Trusty Pistol**

Amelie was given a trusty pistol to use as a sidearm when in close quarters. Got a sneaky Merrick trying to ambush you and quickly finish you off? Amelie uses her pistol as a last resort to keep herself alive when someone's trying to get a sneaky kill on her. It deals 26 damage per shot.

### **Ultimate: Clinger Grenades**

Amelie's ultimate allows her to use explosives. Her marksman rifles make her dangerous at long and medium ranges, and her pistol makes her dangerous at close range. However, her clingers make her dangerous at any range, if used right. Whenever someone is within the Area of Effect of Amelie's Clingers, including herself, and it explodes, it deals 100 damage. Whenever Amelie throws a clinger, it can also stick to enemies.

## Lore

*Amelie is a notorious sniper who was best known within her country's military in the war for being precise almost every time with her shots. Amelie would constantly take out enemies, and unlike the other Legends who joined the Buildfight Games, she fought on the opposing side. Amelie was responsible for 132 kills in the first battle alone just with her sniper, which led to commemoration by the military's commander. Jason, Amelie's ex, who fought on the other side, was given the task to take out Amelie through a flank to prevent anymore vital murders. Jason was close to achieving his goal, but missed the shot with his pistol, which allowed Amelie to knock him unconscious and escape. As Amelie was running from the battle to prevent herself from being killed, she ran into Byron who offered her a chance to join the Buildfight Games to escape Jason, only to meet him there shortly after.*

## Tips

* When playing Amelie, don't get too excited. When you're using the Bolt-Action Rifle and have it scoped on an enemy, wait until it is the right time to strike. Unless you are very good with predictability and weapon accuracy, it is best to wait until the enemy is stationary or barely moving if you want to get a headshot.
* If you're focused on dealing quick damage with your primary weapon but trying not to get a headshot, then it is easier to do that. Wait until the enemy is stationary or moving a little. Try to predict their movements, and then fire.
* It is way easier to stay alive with Amelie when perching up at buildings or behind cover. Having protection around yourself can make it easier for you to denote that someone is trying to ambush you.
* Amelie is weak when facing Vanguard, Merrick, Charisma and Valkyrie due to their mobility and health.
* Amelie is strong when facing Nile, another **Amelie**, Jason, and Mukai due to them not having good mobility or escaping techniques, and also due to their low health that can easily have them killed with one headshot.
* Amelie is neutral when facing a Terabyte due to her Chiller Bombs, it mainly depends on timing. When a Terabyte is in Falcon form however, they can easily be killed by you.
* Use your hunting rifle at medium range. It is easier to aim with when they are closer and if you miss you can quickly reload and attempt a rebound shot.
* Use your lever action rifle at medium range. Its fire rate and ammo capacity prove helpful at that type of combat.

## Trivia

* Amelie is the second character ever added to Buildfight.
* She is loosely based off of Widowmaker from the Overwatch franchise.
