ohh what s busted about him?
that s wrong logic or u just dont know the passive effect of twinblade
to save u time: twin blade increases cdr for heroic strike on aa from base cd to 9s, so no matter if the base cdr is 2 or 3s after u pick twinblade it will be 9s so this minibuff only effects colossal and taunt and the devs comment is not a mistake

When Arthas buffs?
Should give him Icebound Fortitude baseline, or rework him into a bruiser at this point because no one is playing him. Howling Blast is too feast or famine. Why do heroās like ETC, Rexxar, Muradin, and Joh get an active talent (Imposing Presence) that is better than Arthasā E until heās been hugging a hero for 5 seconds? Giving Deathcoil a short stun could be interesting/obnoxious lol. Or baseline Remorseless Winter. SOMETHING. Our Lich King is getting kited and pinballed around every which way.
Put Whitemane Harsh Discipline and Shared Punishment on different talent tiers, increase zeal to 50% spellpower (as it was pre-rework. god I miss double roots), keep the -25 armor, make it -30 even. Increase inquisition damage a little bit. I miss the high risk high reward playstyle of old. Sheās been getting watered down more and more since rework. Donāt lower mana management and trait risk, increase the reward!
pls pls pls

What kind of argument is that? Yeah I run out of Mana that means Iām using my abilities not standing around with my sand active.

Whatever. I say chromie doesnāt have enough mana tension. You say she does have enough in the form of her slowing sands
Enough is a subject term, but Iād say Chromie kinda has mana tension (as in, you canāt use Time Trap, spells very liberally), with Sand, if you donāt die in ARAM. Not that dying is end of the world in ARAM (I often suicide when playing WM in ARAM, get some stacks via level 1 talent, suicide to get mana back to full - tell your team before doing so so that they donāt get the wrong idea).

No, I said she does in the form of using her other abilities, including when her sands are active.
Broadly I agree, W build is very strong now and pretty easy to play.
Letās hope that she gets the guldan treatment and next round of patches they buff her other builds.
I think the talents that stand out as being a bit out of place are the lvl 1 quest (too weak. Cap it, and give a big chunk as quest reward), harsh discipline, (still not competitive, simply comes online too late and competes with other more versatile talents) and Scarlet Wrath at 13 just isnāt strong enough unless your team is made up of all tanks and bruisers then the fight is over before the sustain healing is useful.
Mostly how much CC he provides, especially after 20. I think if they removed Rewind, or replaced it with a customized version that isnāt quite as strong, he would need slight HP buffs, and then would be balanced. If you play him correctly, he is almost impossible to kill, can turn any fight into a 4v5 after 10, and can set up mages like few other tanks. If his team has follow up CC, it is a guaranteed kill. The main reason he isnāt currently dominating the tank meta is more a testament to how freakishly good Johanna is, rather than any weakness on his part.
Nah, infinite dings is fun. Just give it Vallaās Fire at Will treatment and it would be fine.
Not Paradox mentioned that Radiance might become a competitive talent for her, coupled with her baseline Desperation removal from W and the talent that gives her free Zeal of she gets 2 Desperation. Because now she can trigger the Radiance heal twice and still reapplies Zeal. Idk if thatās gonna be enough but Iām excited to try that build of hers.
You forgot to remove Gazlowe Bomb Toss on 20.

If slowing sands is an issue, why is Murky alllowed in ARAM at all? His murloc army is far more abusive.
What do i care? Rework was trash, is trash and will also be trash until the changes pile up to undo everything they did back then.
And donāt forget Leoric and Deathwing. This heroes are the trinity of the anti-cc heroes, because they have a kit that doesnāt give a crap about being ccāed. Thatās why i donāt think Rewind is a problem, even tho itās obviously powerful as you said, but thatās why I think the game is in a stage where Anub isnāt busted, but balanced and it seems Blizzard - at least for now - thinks this as well.
They can only cleanse themselves, and being offlaners, are unlikely to be the ones targeted by Anubās team in the first place. While they arenāt impacted by Anubās kit, they canāt really do anything to counter him, especially given the fact that his CC is all multi-target, depending on positioning. Rewind may not be an issue for you personally if you are on either hero, but it is a game-changer against the rest of your team. Johanna works because she has an AoE cleanse on an impossibly short CD at 20.
You may want to look at Anubās pick/win rates in competitive play before assuming he isnāt busted.

WMās Shared Punishment seems strong but he whole point of such talents should be utility and control, not pure output. I really hate it when they unload all the buffs on the simplest to use mechanic. From her own perspective itās particularly not fun to have so much power concentrated in a single ability (13+16 talents) when thereās an overabundance of interrupts in nearly every match.
Wholeheartedly agree, but the fact just has to faced. They just will not and I doubt they ever will revert it.
The state of the game and Blizzardās in right now.
She needs changes to her talents, instead of making her more simpler by increasing output.
