How is Impaling light balanced?

I still dont see how you guys find a ability with a simple follow up takes away 60% of his a average health hero balanced.

You can not do that with impaling light , not even with burn the impure.

If you get max burst it means you got hit with W , Q , E during stun and then got an AA.
This means imperius burned all his abilities except ult on someone, is it unreasonnable that it hurts?
Want to see what unloading jaina’s 3 abilities on someone’s face does?

I mean if an imperius cant land a Q his pretty much have to do the walk of shame

[AnaBanana-21274]

So tldr from the average forum user. Be in a elo where imperius sucks and cant land his Q. Okay…

All Imperius’s advantages come at disadvantages, hence how he is balanced.

He is not he is sleeper OP. Division S istalocks him for his abilitys same with blaze, those 2 heroes just perform too good

@DrSuperGood-1327

Because Illidan’s damage is not low at level 1 compared to Illidan. It is exactly the same…

REally low

@DarthWalrus-1767

Sigh. Time to teach some kiddies game design.

Look at the rest of Imperius’s kit. His entire gameplan revolves around his Q stun because it’s taking up such a large part of his power budget. His other abilities are a standard projectile with a slow on the sweetspot and a self-heal.

No , his gameplan in the solo lane is around doing his stacks and then doing AA’s , his Q is for when someone is out of position and a ally can follow up.
Or like the Impaling light its just so stupid you can win most fights without the need of allies

@Maximus-12995

This is wrong. Thrall and Sonya can definitely match Imperius in their damage output over about 3 seconds, and if you go any longer than they they tend to surpass him.

So its okay for someone to do 60% to a gazlowe on its own. This burst is too high for a bruiser. And besides what do you think good teammates do when your allied imperius is making someone a kebab?

@MacWeak-2328

ou can not do that with impaling light , not even with burn the impure.

I litterly showed a video? My god…

Then he has bad aim, he should time it better

@AnaBanana-21274

Save me This is horrible

This is literally any hero design though almost to the point it has no meaning? Literally change the word Imperius there with any hero.

If he was balanced then I would see other bruisers picked almost equally to him in the highest elo, but in reality they aren’t, he’s played twice+ the amount than Xul in Masters because solo lanning is forcing the other solo laner to buzz off from the lane, so lane clearing is completely meaningless as it is a simple as just lane freezing which is constant popular tactic done in that area and Diamond and somewhat plat.

He needs some readjustments between his talents generally, because where he stands, he can work the solo lane because of his damage which is what bruisers are picked for in the first place while at the same stay a constant threat that is far bigger than any bruiser due how his Q build works in providing the burst.

If the Gazlowe is an idiot and just stands there facetanking them for that whole period, yeah, it kind of is.

They pick him not because of his kit. But rather because of others kit. His Celestial Charge is one of the best combo skills in HotS allowing practically every skill shot or hazard to land with high reliability. Suddenly Ragnaros’s Sulfuras Smash turns from a joke into a reliable deadly combo that can delete squishy heroes. He also has no instant displacement so there is no risk like with newbie ETC players who then knockback heroes after they power slide causing your perfectly timed skill shot to miss.

He also can combo a high slow after the stun ends so even if your timing is slow, chances are you will get a good hit. Like wise it has little wind up or skill shot aspects compared with the roots of Xul and Thrall who can do something similar but less reliably. It also is not an ultimate like Entomb. It cannot be body blocked like Storm Bolt of Muradin. All in a package that does by itself good damage as well.

[SamiSha-21964]

You are reversing it in such a confusing way it makes literally no sense.

They pick him because of other kits, doesn’t that translate exactly that he’s picked because of his kit? lol
