Nurse Harrow Hits the Streets of Manhattan
Shh... This Won't Hurt a Bit.
It's hard to tell whether the chill in the air comes from the approaching fall breeze or the withering glare of Nurse Harrow, who has now arrived on the streets of Manhattan.
Her methods may seem unorthodox to some, but the patients at the Marble Hill Possession Ward can't deny their effectiveness.
With Leech Therapy, she throws a jar of leeches that attach to approaching enemies, draining their health and energy before crawling back with their haul.
By cracking open one of her vials, she releases Wretched Vapors, giving her allies a powerful boost. However, they should be prepared for the side effects once the vapors wear off.
To keep her teammates in fighting shape, she uses Healing Needles, loading her syringe with medicine and injecting it directly into their veins.
And when her patience runs out, Nurse Harrow opens her bag and unleashes the Lurking Terrors trapped inside, sending her enemies running for cover.
"Trust me, I know best."
Nurse Harrow is now available in Deadlock!
Her arrival marks the end of the hero releases for Valve's City Never Sleeps update.
Valve thanked everyone who participated in the voting and hopes players have been enjoying everything new that New York City has to offer.
