IN-DEPTH GUIDE
Passive Health Regeneration
Ironmouse is an Icon Series sprite that automatically regenerates your health when you're low — no items needed, no buttons to press, no conditions beyond being below a health threshold. It's the most passive survivability tool in the game: take damage, stay alive, and your HP ticks back up over time without spending any healing items.
Health Cap Scaling
The regeneration ceiling increases with levels: 60 → 70 → 80 → 90 → 100 HP. At Level 1, you'll regen up to 60 HP — useful but leaves you fragile. At Level 5, you regen to full 100 HP, meaning you never need bandages or medkits for HP (shields still require items). This completely eliminates the need to carry health-only healing in your inventory.
Inventory Slot Freedom
Ironmouse's biggest practical benefit: it frees an inventory slot. Normally you carry shields AND health items. With Ironmouse at Level 5, you can drop medkits/bandages entirely — your HP handles itself. That empty slot becomes a second weapon, extra utility, or more shields. In competitive play where every slot matters, this flexibility is significant.
Comparison to Demon
Both Ironmouse and Demon provide health sustain, but differently. Demon heals instantly on kills (burst healing, requires eliminations). Ironmouse heals passively over time (slow healing, requires no action). Demon is better for aggressive multi-kill scenarios. Ironmouse is better for players who take chip damage between fights and want to always enter engagements at full HP without using consumables.
