God, he's always fun to use. LMB and RMB are really only useful after parrying somebody, (or just in general if you're playing on hours or lower) Now don't get me wrong here, they're both good moves. LMB is a simple, but effective slash, and RMB is a three hit move that staggers with each hit. Your SHIFT isn't the best parry at first, since it isn't instant like [[Artisan]]'s or automatically activated like [[Drifter]]'s. However, it has a lot of active frames, and can be extended if you press SHIFT again when the move actually comes out. This lets it rival the other parries and actually have potential to be better than them. DID I FORGET TO MENTION YOU CAN USE IT AFTER A MOVE FOR AN INSTANT PARRY? This makes LMB and RMB MUCH safer. And, oh boy. The best move he has. Hot Kalash. It's fast, hits plenty of times, and the spread isn't even that bad. Its cooldown can be reduced by landing LMBs or RMBs. Only downside is that, like [[Hellion]]'s LMB, they're reflected off of [[Bloxxerman]]'s shield. And because of how fast it is, you're GUARANTEED to get hit by at least one bullet. Overall, probably the most fun character in the entire game.

+
Hot Gash (M1) is Hot Rash's main attack, a single overhead slash. It deals moderate damage with an above-average windup time and staggers enemies, and is safest to use after parrying.
+
+
Hot Slash (M2) is a combo attack with about the same windup time as Hot Gash. It attacks with the sword 3 times, staggering on each hit.
+
+
Hot Flash (SHIFT) is the same as the enemy's infamous parry move, deploying a forcefield after a short delay which prevents all damage and staggers melee attackers. It remains active longer than the parries of other hosts, and can be used twice in quick succession. If used during another attack, the shield will deploy immediately when the attack ends. A successful block with this skill will also shorten the cooldown of Hot Slash.
+
+
Hot Kalash (Q) is Hot Rash's primary damage source. It gives Hot Rash 2 AK-47s with which he fires 30 projectiles each with a heavy spread over a span of 10 seconds, staggering enemies with the first shot. While they deal very little damage, the overall damage output of the attack is quite high if a majority of the projectiles hit their target. (NOTE: By using this ability to kill a [[Fiend Rider]] inside its car while time is stopped with a [[Tempos|tempo]], the player unlocks the Host [[Hellion]].
+
+
Hot Rash only has one upgrade, known as Hot Cash (The first letter of "Cash" will be shown as any random letter other than O or U). While he begins the game rather weak, each upgrade increases his damage by 100%, allowing his offensive capabilities to eventually surpass his defensive potential.

Hot Slash (M2) is a combo attack with about the same windup time as Hot Gash. It attacks with the sword 3 times, staggering on each hit.
Hot Flash (SHIFT) is the same as the enemy's infamous parry move, deploying a forcefield after a short delay which prevents all damage and staggers melee attackers. It remains active longer than the parries of other hosts, and can be used twice in quick succession. If used during another attack, the shield will deploy immediately when the attack ends. A successful block with this skill will also shorten the cooldown of Hot Slash.
Hot Kalash (Q) is Hot Rash's primary damage source. It gives Hot Rash 2 AK-47s with which he fires 30 projectiles each with a heavy spread over a span of 10 seconds, staggering enemies with the first shot. While they deal very little damage, the overall damage output of the attack is quite high if a majority of the projectiles hit their target. (NOTE: By using this ability to kill a Fiend Rider inside its car while time is stopped with a tempo, the player unlocks the Host Hellion.
Hot Rash only has one upgrade, known as Hot Cash (The first letter of "Cash" will be shown as any random letter other than O or U). While he begins the game rather weak, each upgrade increases his damage by 100%, allowing his offensive capabilities to eventually surpass his defensive potential.

While he does stay true to the rule of 7 letters, Due to having a space in his name, Hot Rash is the only Host in the game with an 8-character long name.
Hot Rash's Chromashift changes the colors of the neon in his face and chest, his two swords, his gun, the shield, and also slightly changes the shirt color.
The color of Hot Rash's sword and the effects he emits (via sword slash and shielding) are the complementary colors to the neon on his body, making him the only host whose attack effects do not match the selected color when Chromashift is applied.
Half Horse's Life Steal ability can deal damage even when Hot Flash is active.
Hot Rash's AK47s do not turn black while Mood is in effect, unlike everything else about your host.
He can be obtained by clicking the metal bar below the server timer 20 times every time the server timer updates.
The tower very much functions closely to Hot Rash. It has stun immunity by using Hot Flash when it reaches a certain level, uses Hot Slash once it reaches a certain level, has Hot Kalash once it reaches a certain level, and obtains upgrades of Hot Cash (and of course the variants) from levels 5-9.
The only difference is that Hot Rash gains an exclusive ability at max that enchants his sword, so that it deals 2,000 damage over 25 seconds.
Among his upgrade names, the only two letters not represented are O and U.
Prior to April 20th, 2022, Hot Kalash only used 1 AK-47. This single gun fired slightly faster and was significantly more accurate than the current dual wielding of two, but of course only could deal half as much damage.
