Helmsley is our first character update for Samurai Gunn 2. He can grind for unlimited ammo and stomp on bullets—even his own! Check out his movelist: [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40365401/7f503e2c483210115ab3ee574f3a9164c5b979f6.png[/img] We know what you’re thinking... No, there is no ammo limit! Grind as much as you want, but don't get greedy! Helmsley gets weighed down by each bullet, making hoarders easy prey. So who is this deadly machine? One of these new Versus stages may lift a ragged curtain on Helmsley's past: [h2]New Stages![/h2] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40365401/1da8acd4cf6f05cb602427d344cb02143969c3cd.gif[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40365401/40fdffeda4b63b8b8f32338b6c8c88dd6e70d97c.gif[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40365401/c04dbf37808e9afbf1bc86cbf0cf43aab554da1a.gif[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40365401/6fadcb2329e8c713a5375feed061456382dc8064.gif[/img] [h2]New Lives Mode![/h2] Introducing Lives Mode, the new default for online matchmaking!
