A robot designed after a Japanese warrior. Although somewhat shy and being unable to handle money correctly, Vac has the Japanese spirit and enjoys collecting katanas in his spare time, but dislikes speaking the English language.

Special Powers[]

Robot Physiology: Samurai Vac's robot body provides him with various abilities:

Superhuman Strength: Samurai Vac could lift 2 tons.
Superhuman Durability: Samurai Vac's titanium alloy armor makes him very durable. Although it appears to be heavy, it was made thin and as light as possible to improve his mobility.

Skillset[]

Skilled Spearman: Samurai Vac is a master in Sōjutsu, the Japanese disipline of fighting with a spear.

Hyper Combos[]

Master of Arms (Passive): Samurai Vac grows stronger as he lands his blows. Hitting enemies with Basic Attacks energizes Samurai Vac, granting him a stack of Attack Speed and MP5. Stacks up to 5 times, stacks last 8s.

Straight Spear: Samurai Vac throws his spear forwards, which damages enemies on impact. Enemies in the dead center of the effect when it lands are Rooted in place.
Thousand Spear: Samurai Vac hunkers down and fires a barrage of spearheads at the opponent. When done in the air, he fires it downward at a diagonal angle.
Nippon Banzai: Samurai Vac dashes at the opponent with his spear pointed forward. If he connects, Samurai Vac stabs the opponent in the chest before pulling his spear back and unleashing a fierce barrage of stabs with it. Samurai Vac then lifts the opponent up with his spear, flings them over his shoulder, and fires some spearheads at them while they are in the air. Samurai Vac then twirls his spear around while his opponent starts falling, pulls it back, and hits the falling opponent with a charging stab through the chest, ending the Hyper Combo.
