Very simple idea.
Shadow step is like 1 sec cast. Vanish. Appear 1 second being vunerable. Right?(not sure about the time)

What if it is like this

  • During 1 second cast time, a fake Reaper appears instantly at next position.
  • fake reaper has about 50 hp. Makes noise. Doesnt move.
  • If fake Reaper is dead shadow step is cancelled and Reaper have to wait next time.
  • If not, reaper moves instantly after 1 second. Without any delay.

This would sort of improve the ability, but the general consensus is that the ability is just bad and should be replaced.

I don’t think this would be the worst direction to take it, if they were hell bent on keeping shadow step, though.

Yes that is what I am assuming. And I also assumed they want it to be counterable when he is seen using it.
However dying using this skill is just too punishing, so I got the idea of letting his shadow die instead from Syms TP. Still counterable, faster, less punished.
