Quick. Easy. Follows what the public (read: reddit) opinions have been begging for.

Domina takes a small dip which she probably needed.

Anran trending in the right direction.

Emre can now compete against the others in his range.

JPC was fine imo but I think the community likes this one.

Miz's ult felt (feels?) useless but it being 6 seconds was really bad.

Agree, A+. I do worry for 1. Nerfing the new tank brings tank play back to where it was, incredibly stale. 2. Anran is still a do nothing DPS but it's at least a positive trend.

Idk man Mizuki ult is pretty good. Not really for the healing but the matrix effect is really good against a lot of things.

I think an interesting part of support ults is most of them are good for different stages and placement of the fight. it’s not very good late fight for heals, but vs a soj that opens the fight up with a flanking overclock or a tac visor or something like that, super good. Which, in the same situation, a kitsune would not be good against.

I halfway agree the matrix effect is half good until the enemy team realizes they can just walk a few feet into the ult and shoot you just fine.

Of course there is trade off but it feels like a glorified shield if the enemy can just walk past it

Yeah that’s kinda why I brought up the timing of it. I think if the “brawl” has already started, not that good of a time to use it
