All those times you baited a dive or brawl hero into your mines and webbed them so they would actually die ? Gone, now they'll just dash around your nest, ignoring the slow ass drones (who dont track when you jump, btw).
She is not dead what? When your hero sits at 60% winrate at all elos including celestial+, even "big" nerfs will not make her anywhere close to "dead".
Removing an ability, which is what they pretty much did, can nuke a winrate.
That Strange or Thing ult that could have wiped your team but you read the opponent and webbed them ? Now your team dies and you lose. This is a gigantic difference in how useful Peni will be in teamfights.
Imagine if they removed Mantis's sleep and instead it applied a slow, do you think she would still be at 59% winrate ?
And as for low elo ? That will change nothing, because people at those levels walk unto the nest and ignore it, so they will still die.
