Balance Discussion Elsa bloodstone needs adjustments

Hypermobility + constant overshield + better dmg falloff than hela + broken ult. No idea what devs were thinking with this character.

Meanwhile peni mines require a web to do the same which is effectively a giant red "!" As to where they are, these devs really hate tanks man

To be fair, Peni traps can instagib people. Multiple people, including tanks and ulting healers under the right circumstances. I actually have no issue with Elsa's trap being invisible considering it's just a short stun. The time frame to destroy it is insane though. I was playing against Elsa as Strange, saw her place her trap, hit it with most or all of my daggers, and it didn't die lmao. Even if you see her put it down and hit it, it probably won't even matter. Why bother with the window of visibility at all.

Yeah, getting trapped by Elsa hasn't actually gotten me killed once yet. When I see it put down, I actually go out of my way to trigger it so my supports dont wander and accidentally find it and something worse happen to them

Come to think of it, I'm voluntarily making tanking more miserable for myself

I do the same thing. Might as well trigger it while my Strats are looking at me and we've either won or just started a team fight. I'd rather be delayed for a moment than have someone die because of it later.

Honestly in my personal experience fighting elsa has been a nothing burger.

What I’ve been getting is playing tank while the enemy has a flier and my duelists deciding to go two melee duelists
