Does she need more base resistance now or resist growth?
I know a lot of people don’t like the idea of the mid scope much but I always liked the idea of Bel but never vibed with the perma invade win by 15 never die or lose like design of old Bel. It definitely was very exciting but just never seemed worth to me especially someone of my elo and mechanics level it seemed like total gamba. This definitely feels too far the other way though and you don’t get to do anything other than clear camps and at your first item you can maybe fight with your winning laners and every item after you get closer to 1 v 5 mode except you can instantly be blown up which seems kind of against the idea of the design. I play tons of Briar and Viego and both of them are auto attackers that also have mechanics that allow them to either bait or out play opponents and enable their auto attacks or allow retreat if the engagement went poorly. Viego has his most which allows bot engage and retreat when used well and also allows you to threaten without committing. He also has a mechanic with his W where you can hold it allowing you to mid game the person your engaging in as well as increasing its stun duration which can help enable a lot of his play, and of course his ult makes him unstoppable and when possessing a ghost he cannot be harmed so these are all options you have when you build full crit on Viego and still be able to play the game against people that otherwise would pop you. Likewise briar has similar things that enable her to in an out, threaten, or disrupt opponents to enable her auto trades and big W chomps. E can buffer CC, cancel frenzy, heals, and gives a nice DR and it can’t really be interrupted. R gives long range engage, fears targets other than the main one, and gives resists as well as a permanent buff so long as your main target is alive. Q while less useful is still a ward hop and a way to leave or enter fights and in the same vein W activation gives a small dash that can let you avoid on cc spell sometimes. Bel has shades of this but none of them feel as good or impactful. E can be interrupted and while it does give a DR without the healing from the autos it’s not great if it’s interrupted and usually you will die. W is awkward and even more so now that Q has the global cooldown so her ability to get in or out feels really inconsistent and none existent early. The R doesn’t give invulnerability when you use it and while it’s certainly useful and can do a lot of damage and give some healing it’s pretty inconsistent as a gameplay mechanic. Of course I’m not saying to copy any of Viego or Briars stuff but considering all this stuff in their kit that enables them I feel like Bel lacking that maybe entitles her to some higher base resists or resist growth? If the idea is she’s suppose to become some void god raid boss but if you stop her early she’s not very good then shouldn’t it become a lot harder to one shot her?
