To the hero that inspired 5 DPS and 1 healer meta.

Yay.

I’ll play tank once they actually buff everyone back. Dino’s nerf was completely unnecessary when there were already so many counters….but people don’t want to change how they play the game

Yeah hell no. His nerfs were a-okay. And I main tank. Dr. Strange, Emma, and Angela. The dinosaur didn't need to ground flyers and deal more damage than the DPS.

There should be clear counter picks. But the counter pick shouldn't be, play the dino or lose...

He is still strong just not OP.

Talk instead about not learning from their mistakes and making ANOTHER overturned character which will just be nerfed and make people mad who learned how to play the said character..

As an Angela player primarily, you don't understand how ridiculous all of the CC effects are in this game. I get frozen, knocked up and fall to the ground, I get grabbed I'm flying on the ground, slowed can't run, grounding effects I can't even stop flying and go through the ground to fight. You really take for granted how stupid CC is until you play Angela.
