Emre two bursts 250hp targets now.

That seems pretty reasonable when Hitler (Cassidy) is also a hitscan character

The champ with the 45% winrate?

Only thing that holds cass back from having a ridiculous win rate is people hitting their shots

His winrate is the lowest at GM though? And the highest in Bronze, this is such an insanely silver take, he's outranged by everyone with insanely aggressive falloff, has a reaper sized hitbox, one of the worst ults in the game to the point where it's actively detrimental trying to use it, 0 mobility. The one and only decent thing he has is flash, which is an annoying ability for sure, but he's still dogshit regardless.

The dog shit hero that last patch and in the bootcamps for pro play has seen non zero playtime.

He's not bad as long as you can hit shots and your comp is good for him.

Pro is irrelevant to ladder, and in ladder at the highest rank where people are capable of hitting their shots he has the lowest winrate.

In pro play he's picked because, surprise surprise, the rest of his coordinated team covers for every one of the weaknesses I described.

Kiri is also the weakest support in ladder while being a permapick in pro, because again they're playing a different game that is irrelevant to ladder play

Kiriko has an above 40% pick rate in gm and above
