Ambush in the TCG.
Ambush is a level 14 Outlaw rogue ability. It is a powerful instant attack performed while Stealthed.
Tips and tactics
- Very effective in taking out cloth-wearing targets quickly.
- Ambush is arguably preferable over
[Cheap Shot] in PvP as an opener against mages, as a mage's 
[Blink] ability is usable while under a stun effect. - A critical hit with an Ambush followed by an Improved Sinister Strike (or a well-timed
[Backstab]) can put an enemy at a severe health disadvantage from the beginning of the fight, in addition to starting you off with 2-3 Combo Points. - A quickly-executed "Ambush -> Vanish -> Ambush" combo attack can inflict severe damage on any single target.
Trivia
- Ambush is one of Valeera's basic abilities in Heroes of the Storm.
