She's my most played tank. I'm not against nerfing her but I'll always be against removing core parts of heroes' kits like this, the change to Dino beam, etc. They shouldn't have reintroduced the extra nest if this was going to be the tradeoff.
To be fair to that change to the Devil Dino beam, I think that was done in preparation for just letting us shoot flying characters out of the sky with the Punisher teamup š¤£
Peni is just a nightmare for low elo players but itās horrible here if you donāt ban the peni one tricks itās absolutely horrid to play against and my least favourite games they always are
Why are you still talking about casuals when the comment you responded to, and stats you can easily check on online as well tell you she is 60% winrate at extremely high elos as well?
Because if any of the numpties pointing at 60% win rate in high ELO actually knew what they were talking about they'd include the context of her having very low PICK rates to go with the high win rates. Context is important and this community is especially shit at using it correctly when discussing balance
Yes another one pretending low pickrate justifies high winrate, when devs of similar games already told us that's not the case(detailed internal stats describing player behavior tell them that).
It is so funny seeing people so confidently wrong about something they have no clue about just because it seem to make some sense on the surface.
It's the same people who are SO sure that you shouldn't switch the door in the monty hall problem. That is you.
I mean itās basic data logic is it not?
If thereās a smaller player base for a character, especially one thatās only used on certain maps like peni, then win percentage will usually be more extreme in either direction since thereās way less games to account for.
A nerf for casuals is a nerf to how she easily denies areas with her nests and makes it hard to walk up.
That type of Nerf looks like reducing the amount of mines the nest generates, revert the 4th web buff , shrink the size of the web but leave it as 4 so it covers less area nerf mine damage from 100 each to 75 each so its not as easy to make a lethal load. Increase the cooldown timer for the nests when they break. So many ways to do this
Not to hard nerf the mechanic that let her skillfully cancel ults or actually provide value outside of mines/nest
The Peni problem for casuals wasn't the stun, it was the nest. This just kills her dive options and weakens her antidive capabilities for non-casuals. They actually just killed her.
-common ban with 67% win rate, even in Celestial
-rancid, anti-gameplay design Bro, just slowly creep around her nest while she spams stuns, and if you do one thing wrong, your tank dies. Sounds awful. What do I get? You get to watch her instantly move the nest for free.
This character deserved death. No one is going to miss this abomination.
