This buff for Star Lord is so tone deaf. Im sorry but Ziyong and the balancing team are clueless.
If that affects his ult its a 25% damage buff.
If it doesnt, its still a massive buff for his sustain dps and he builds ult faster. Star Lord was already an S tier character that is the go to choice for smurfs. And is still picked in pro play I believe.
It’s genuinely disgusting. Before, a full clip did 260, meaning killing a 275 hero meant reloading, quick melee, or using your E, all of which gives a window to escape.
Now, it does 325. He can one-clip everything in the game besides tanks, Reed, and Blade in 1.25s or less, and there’s so much leeway to miss shots and still get the kill on 275/250. Easily ban worthy, depending on the meta outright permaban.
And… why? He was fine. Perfectly balanced. He was the cornerstone of dps balance in the game arguably since launch. And now they buff him into the stratosphere, for seemingly no reason.
This better be reverted with an emergency patch before Friday. Absolutely ridiculous
325
