"An adventurous cowboy from the Americas. He lived together with the mysterious native Americans where he perfected the art of using a lasso."

- Rumor

Kevin Ayuso, or the Cowboy, is one of  currently featured in Identity V.

Overview
Kevin can lasso other survivors toward him, and he can carry them to safety. He can also lasso the hunter and flip over them. The lasso can be used on pallets and cipher machines, and will pull him towards these objects.

When decoding the same cipher machine with a female character he decodes faster. When decoding with another male character, he decodes slower. Additionally, when he is hit while carrying a female survivor, he will be instantly downed while the female survivor takes no damage; however, if he is carrying a male survivor, both will take damage once.

Cowboy players mostly use him to rescue survivors and in all female teams. He can also stun the hunter with a pallet longer than most other survivors, making him an adequate kiter.

Background
A cowboy from the North America who befriended a young girl from an native American tribe when he was younger and learned how to use the lasso. Many years later, he was saved by the native Americans when he suffered misfortune and the passionate Kevin Ayuso remained with the tribe. But good things never last and the tribe died out. He didn't want to stay, so he decided to roam the European continent.

Tips

 * To lasso faster-> If you click on the lasso button and hold it for at least half a second and after release the button to lasso, you will lasso faster than normally.


 * When you use the lasso to rescue someone off a balloon, stand behind the hunter, stand behind the hunter. That way you don't have to worry about the hunter moving away and you have more time to run.


 * Try not to lasso to ciphers/pallets when not in pursuit, save your lasso to rescue, jump over the hunter or to reach a pallet faster and to go to a cipher to get the movement boost.


 * This is helpful in tarot but can work in normal matches, when the hunter is pursuing someone, stand from behind or on the side and lasso the teammate. Run in a direction the hunter may not see you.


 * The lasso can counter hunters who won't leave the chair alone. When the hunter is right in front of a rocket chair and you don't want to get hit or you're on half health, try to find a gap where you can reach the teammate, charge up the lasso and then lasso the teammate.


 * Tide Turner is not activated when you lasso a teammate off a chair, so if the hunter isn't near it is advisable to use your lasso if you carry Tide Turner

Members of the Su clan followed the totems in their heart and moved across America, chasing the sunset.""I've also seen skinned bison bodies on a plain, covered in bullet holes. Even the wild wolves wouldn't touch their meat.""I can't stop 'civilization' from expanding, and I don't have the courage to fight for the justice of their survival.""My parents gave me life, yet I chose to run away from home.""Angelina trusted me, yet I didn't protect her.""The Chief and his wife took care of me, yet I didn't repay their kindness. I didn't even return their daughter's keepsake - cowboys from the farm targeted the Indians' hunting ground, while wandering cowboys took away an old couple's last remembrance of their daughter.""Angelina, Angelina, please forgive me.""I am still the lost boy you knew.""But I'll never give up on the freedom you introduced me to:""Champion of the clan, tun with the bison,""dance with the wolf, fly higher than the eagle.""-- Kevin Alonso's Confession"
