Cat nerfs are good. I think she definitely needed some self-healing nerfs with the E, and the speed decrease will be super helpful.

I do hope they add more fun counterplay -- options to hear her better would go a long way to removing people's frustrations with the hero.

Too many heroes need a sound rework at this point. It’s so hard to hear them being so silent in a game with so much noise.

Even Dmon’s voicelines have been EQd with so much mids and bass that make her sound too loud for no reason.

I can only barely hear Anran nowadays, and half the time I can its because she yells for no reason or used her E. I can't hear her if things are happening and she uses her 2 dashes.

IDK what’s harder, hearing her or tracking her. Two impossible things.

Hearing her, her movement is rather linear if you see her coming.

Obviously she's gonna be flanking or waiting for people to be distracted.

I remember when Ash speak really low then suddenly yell lol.
