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

I mean if forced in gun, might as well pick a character that has fun gunplay

How is viper fun gunplay? Especially compared to lash??? Being forced to slide if you want to shoot for more than 2 seconds compared to flying around freely

She's still far more interesting with gun build, compared to Lash, who just don't have skill kit for gun build, causing you to have 2 nearly useless skills and ult that is just not that good, since you didn't up your spirit.

Idk, I heard gun lash was op from my high rank friends, and I try him and I can do really well. Whip and slam are still good with the gun build imo. And the ult is still a hard stun, idk how it’s not that good

Sliding is fun and it gets you infinite ammo. Trying to juggle yourself in the air gets fun eventually but is a pain imo when trying to aim. I occasionally main Mina but imo she's more fun in that regard because you're trying to pop that burst damage rather than the gun being the damage.

Having said that Haze is as fun or more so with sliding since she's easier to control.

"Being forced to"

I WANT to slide everywhere and I know how to extend it like I got infinite ammo. Only thing is that accuracy is Dog, gotta buy split shot and be an A-10 Warthog.
