Neural Theft is an ultimate ability for Cypher.
Description[]
Neural Theft is an Intel ability that Cypher can instantly use on the corpse of any dead enemy agent in his crosshairs that has died this round. Upon doing so, Cypher will throw his hat towards the body. Once the hat reaches the corpse it will windup before revealing the locations of all living enemies remaining on the map. After a short duration, the ability will reveal the locations of all living enemies a second time. Neural Theft uses still image silhouettes for its reveals.
