Adrenaline is similar to energy drinks. The biggest difference is that it provides the full protection and has the ability to heal a player. They may take a little longer to administer compared to other options, but they can provide you with a winning edge. The added movement speed boost is no joke — it can save your bacon in a pinch. Don't be surprised if an opponent turns the tables on you by popping some adrenaline and zipping aro
