Blade Storm is an ultimate ability for Jett.

Description[]

EQUIP a set of highly accurate throwing knives. FIRE to throw a single knife and recharge knives on a kill. ALT FIRE to throw all remaining daggers but does not recharge on a kill.
— In-game description

Blade Storm is an Empowerment ability that Jett can instantly use. On cast, she winds up and equips herself with hitscan throwing knives. Jett can use other abilities and weapons without deactivating Blade Storm; she can re-use the ability to reequip the knives.

Blade Storm has two firing modes, Single and Burst. Single Fire throws knives one by one, has 100% accuracy at all times (even when Jett is running or in the air), and will fully recharge her ammunition count if she kills an enemy. Burst Fire throws all of Blade Storm's remaining knives, though this can be inaccurate and will not grant a recharge even if she kills an enemy.
