Strix is a Damage Champion in Paladins, added on August 23, 2017.

Lore

Having spent most of his life in the military, Strix was an invaluable member of the Sentinels, tasked with training their elite sharpshooters like Kinessa. He was reassigned after the unit was disbanded — sent to the front lines with the regular army as it prepared to put down the Resistance.

Always the calm and composed professional, he is the master of stealth and camouflage, able to pick off high-value targets before the enemy is even aware of his presence — or that they are under attack at all.

Summary

Strix is one of two snipers along with Kinessa. He is the first champion capable of switching between his primary and secondary weapons. His ultimate is a flashbang grenade, which is a non-lethal ordnance that can blind his enemies for a short period of time. His sniper rifle can deal 1200 damage per round to the body or limb. A headshot can deal 1800 damage, forcing most of his enemies to immediately retreat and hide from him. His pistol deals less damage but is useful for engaging in close-quarters situations.

Trivia

General

Lore

  • According to the Official Paladins Twitter, Strix fighting against Corvus in Corvus' Lore video is canon and Strix has "become disillusioned with the Magistrate". As expanded on here, Strix is still part of the Magistrate, he just wants to know what's going on behind the scenes.
  • Strix was part of the Sentinels, as stated in a loading screen tip found here.
  • Strix was the one who taught Kinessa, as revealed here.

References

  • Strix's name may have be taken from Strix, an owl of bad omen.
  • The kill taunt against Ash "How many shots to get to the center of a frontline?" (▶️) is a reference to a phrase commonly assosiated with Tootsie Pops.
  • The line "Remain silent, and be thought a fool. Or speak, and remove all doubt." (▶️) is a reference to a similar quote by Abraham Lincoln, "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt."
  • The emote "360 No Scope" references a technique in games of spinning a character 360 degrees before firing and killing an enemy with a sniper rifle without using the scope.
