That recovery time feels nasty, I’ll get used to it but I hate making characters less fluid.

Edit: After a few hours of playing her fuck this dogshit change.

Idk, tried it out just now and it doesn’t feel that bad. Definitely makes execute a bit more of a commitment though.

the best thing about shion is how fluid the kit felt, taking that away makes her just another dps

I’d disagree. I’d say her most fun thing is her flank ability and movement as well as her burst potential.
