I completed the first 2 basic levels past novice or whatever, but honestly I dont know if i can keep play. 1/2 of my lobbies get taken over by these aimbot clone kiriko’s. I see no counted play for it on most characters. They blink in with +100% damage and literally 1 or 2 tap you. They take over the entire lobby and there is no way around it.
Clone Kiri is really strong, but it’s not as egregiously broken as it was pre-nerf.
Her clone only lasts 2.5 seconds now, and her clone doesn’t actually make any money which takes away quite a bit of money she could be making. The main way to counter it currently is to play alongside your team (who would’ve guessed), but if she ever catches you in a 1v1 and you can’t escape, the best thing you can do is to shoot the actual Kiriko player. The bot always prioritizes healing anyone before it tries doing damage, but more than anything it’s a positioning check.
Besides that, it’s really important to make sure you aren’t neglecting survivability items. Nebula Conduit gives you an extra 50 HP and reduces the immediate damage by 15%, which is usually enough to sustain the bot, (since it can’t headshot), and if the Kiriko is landing headshots, you can buy Iron Eyes to lower critical damage by 20%.
I still think it needs a nerf, though. It’s ridiculous that she can use suzu on it, give it overheal with her abilities, and pretty much turns off any aforementioned counterplay if she’s running her dual suzu power.
'till then, just try not to break LOS with your teammates or save your mobility until she jumps you.
