I’m somewhat in the middle ground on it.
To address some of the concerns it looks like a lot of QoL changes have happened over the last few seasons. Havoc got an auto version/Shadow Crash has a target version/etc.
This lets them choose what spells to make easier and what they leave as an expression of player ability.
I’m largely in agreeement with the changes and would like to see them implemented then in regards to anymore problematic targetted spells (without necessarily bringing back @target).
