No matter the game, no matter the circumstance, the Hotshot is ready to risk life and limb to try to make the flashiest plays. \u201cYOLO\u201d\u2019s the word for The Hotshot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Confidence is a trademark of the Hotshot, and it shows in their gameplay and the way they communicate. It can be a bit hard to control them, but their antics make for some of the most intense, hype and fun gaming moments you\u2019ll always remember.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-joker\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Joker\"><\/span>The Joker<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>No, not the clown in the purple suit.
