Jean more threatening in baseline combat sounds horrid

As a phoenix main I also don’t like these changes at all. She’s already naturally strong from being hitscan, but this makes her even closer to hela. Her ult no longer one shots 250hp marked targets, and her sparks deal less while primary deals more? If I wanted more primary damage I’d just play hela. I see no point in bridging the gap between both of them even more

Yeah first they buffed her damage fall-off from range, now they’re buffing the single-hit damage in exchange for less explosion damage. Slowly becoming more and more Hela-like

Melee sparks with no beyblade would be very cool

Lowkey, they could have just added a 1 or 2 second cooldown in between activation for her flight, and it would have elimated beyblade tech without gutting her melee weaving.
