Iâm conflicted on this one. I like the new version better, but youâre absolutely right in saying they changed -everything-. Itâs to the point where, despite the themes being consistent and most abilities still being there in some form, itâs a new hero.
Now the hard part is, how do you have both versions? You canât really. Even if you reskin everything, itâll be too similar in concept to have both. Personally Iâm glad to have this version, but I would like to see the piercing come back on her RMB. It made her very good against some really cheesy comps. Sheâs gonna be niche no matter what, so give her [see: let her keep] something that makes her an actual real go-to for that barrier-focused enemy comp.
I like the faster charge and travel time, but itâs not worth losing the piercing damage in exchange for a minor AoE. It was already AoE, just in a different way. Adjust it if needed but bring it back.
Iâm okay with literally everything else though. The shield was awkward. It worked, but it was awkward. Teleporter solves the same issue in a different way, somewhat. Itâs also more versatile in general.
