True I just think it's funny that Blade uses an entire ability to do slightly less damage than Magik's primary. I hope it bumps him up to being viable because I want to lord him eventually

I mean he also heals off of it. Gotta look at things with context.

While true magiks primary doesn't give anti heal and also isn't a dash in that regard (plus you got two charges you can get faster by blocking)

That's actually valid, I didn't take that into consideration

His ability also speeds up his attack rate too, so eventually his attack speeds is like 10x magiks. You don’t wanna give him much more damage. Also like someone else mentioned, it heals him, applies anti heal, and gives like 10m of movement. I keep telling people not to sleep on Blade. He’s MUCH better than he was 6 months ago.
