Are we ready yet to admit that this character is completely mid
Just a temperature check
Just a temperature check
How unfair are iFrames?
The character with zero risk from anything, that can fly wherever he wants, has iframes
The constant obsession with combos as a one stop fix all for dive characters always annoys me
The way to play the character, as with any creative dive, is to understand what the character does and what is correct for the situation
Yes, there are manoeuvres you do with this character and someone like daredevil. On cat you can use whip pursuit in quick succession to deal about half a health bars damage. On DD you throw dash cross to engage.
But you are not looking to do x or y combo at any point. You are assessing things like:
- Can I reach the backline with invis or do I need to dash in, or do I need both
- can I get a yoink off to start my engage and am I confident in actually landing it on the target I’m looking at
- how many coins you have and what that means
- When and how you invis mid dive
Etc. etc. etc. I could literally go on forever about the considerations for her
You can do things like yoink and immediately whip pursuit, invis straight away so no one knows where you are, then pop up right behind the support to land primary melees and with yoink halfway back to cooldown, which will give more bonus health and reset double jump if you need movement
That is the beautiful thing about the character. You cannot just do x or y and profit. It all depends.
You have two dashes, yoink, whip, pursuit, primary melees, and the shop. Learn what she does and dive with the character, do not look for x or y
But also hitscan/backline dps players
The character is not good. Actually, she is pretty straight up bad. She is especially not good in a solo queue setting with no plan behind her, and I am all but certain pro teams will not be able to formulate ways to use her either.
Hopefully, after that time, and people understand that the character is bad, we can reflect on what is actually wrong with this community. It really will be a gift, that of all the characters they could’ve picked to say was OP, they picked this one. Selecting her and their reasons for it PERFECTLY highlights everything that is wrong with the playerbase
Don’t get me wrong, I love her, I will play her regardless, but she is just not a good character, so let’s ignore and come back in a month or two
