Chromie blessing of bronze talent gives whole team 10% movespeed and 30% cd reduction

Killing the backline without bothering about tanks, creeps or buildings

vs.

10 sec spells being able to be cast after 7 seconds for whole team.

I know what I will pick. Yes, in some borderline cases with specific heroes like Decard or heroes with very lows CD’s, it will be strong. But in general, the piercing on your Q’s has the upper hand.
Or the 500% faster CD’s for 6 sec…

Chromie sand blast now has a lot of counters, any summoning like nazeebo’s wall, zagara’s zergs, or anything else will stop you from doing your job, and if you are in a match where you are the mage and there is only 1 other dps, you need to make your job, being able to clear waves and hit multiple heroes with your Q’s is far more better than just give 0,3 secs per sec of advantage in cd.

Before this change i almost never picked piercing sands because minions, mercenaries, estructures and bosses where not a problem, now if i see a chromie not using this talent at infernal shrines i will pick a garrosh and throw her at the enemy team by myself (?.

Jokes aside, like i said before, after 2 o 3 weeks people will see that it is way overrated and there are better options than just a small buff to your allies

Taking the CDR aside, which isn’t even what i’m concerned about.

Take a look at this…

Lúcio

Abilities

  • Crossfade (W)
    • Healing decreased from 16 to 15 per second
    • Movement Speed aura reduced from 20% to 10%

now look at this

Chromie

Abilities
Level 18
New Talent – Blessing of the Bronze

  • Passive: While Chromie is alive, she and all her allies gain 10% Movement Speed and their Basic Abilities recharge 30% faster

This is what the argument should be about.

So a 10% movement speed, and pre nerf movement speed when around Lucio. Big woop? I’m still going to take Piercing Sands like any reasonable Chromie player would. Screw buffing my teammates when I can end the fight before that 23% decrease in cooldowns and 10% movement speed has made an impact.

I’ve played 10 games since patch and whoever gets chromie loses. See? Saying things with no proof is easy.

The game also just patched. Did you play 10 min games only?

Yes they were stomps due to how OP Chromie is.
