Paduk would be more fitting as a Scout Sniper
Just for laughs they should make Paduk a melee character 
I like peoples’ idea of having him as a Scout/Tank hybrid that pays homage to him being a Trashball superstar. I also like someone’s idea of his ultimate giving a team-wide defensive buff.
Even tho I’m not big on Horde and Escape I’m interested to see what they do with him and Clayton. Think I’ll start a thread for big bad Clay
Haha for sure.
My guess is they will have it be some type of Taunting thing, where he can activate it and it draws in agro while also making him say funny lines. His legendary Card will probably be something that gives him stim while its activated or something.
So I was looking at this Artwork and its all wrong.

Why is Clayton holding a Gnasher and not a Lancer? Why is Cole holding the Lancer and not the Gnasher?
Does TC even know anything about these characters?
I think because Gridiron is PvP and those are the two main weapons in the loadout. That drawing doesn’t represent Horde.
Resume there Judgment role
Augustus Cole (Soldier)
Garron Paduk (Scout)
If they add the nade launcher from judgment I would support this
Yea Man.
Booshka for the Win 

To be fair, Cole did get a lancer headshot in Gears 2 while rescuing Marcus and Dom from a burning building.
“Point blank still counts, baby! Whoooo!”
Not to mention uppercutting one of em with the saw.
In both senses of the word.
Maybe it’s me, but I picture him having boomshot skills for some reason. Or maybe they’ll change it to a dropshot since JD has a boomshot card. I’m predicting him to be more offense oriented.
Nah he summons a Pacific Rim Kaiju-destroying Jaeger Robot and clears the battlefield 
As long as it’s another damage option instead of JD spamming I’m all for it lol
Adrenaline rush
Damage taken is reduced to 83% and nearby enemies miss 5 of their shots per reload and are permanently stunned and blinded by flash. You can’t stop the ■■■■■■■ Train.
Cole should throw a Thrashball bomb that a Swarm/Locust automatically catch and it explodes when they spike it.
Honestly I’m more curious for Clayton’s abilities, aside from him being a surviving Carmine and his love for bacon we dont know a whole lot about him. In fact aside from Ben (even him some though) all the Carmines horde abilities I feel will be cool to see as far as character development goes ( and it’s not like horde abilities give much of anything character wise lol)
