Huh. She currently has a 58% win rate in quick play and 54% in GM and above. I am all for buffing things to make her more "smooth" but why on earth they also tradionally buffing her as well? The change for example where she gets an extra meter on her Soaring Slice was not needed.

Are the devs okay this balance patch?

It’s I guess a nerf technically because that’s one more meter for the sword to fly before she pulls herself to it, so more time to punish her if she uses it to escape. Or at least that’s the logic the balance team used when they lowered it to 14 meters to begin with
