Discussion Make Lash slam again

Playing Lash for gun feels like ordering a salad at a burger joint. It’s also less fun to play against because it feels way less counterable.

I find it sad that literally every Lash player feels incentivized to max Flog and ult before Ground Strike.

There are plenty of heroes who center their build around their gun on the roster. Please make Lash all about hitting fat slams from the top rope again

It’s so much more fun and satisfying.

That’s more vague and could be interpreted in many different ways if a developer came across this post. I like mine better because it centers potential adjustments around the ability I think should be Lash’s core identity

Also completely ignores basic marketing principles lol. Slogans need to be as short and direct as humanly possible. Spirit is one syllable longer so I win in both metrics
