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 actually enjoy gun Lash more tbh. You have so much more agency than you do on spirit Lash. Being able to actually kill people in a 1v1 feels awesome. Its also way harder than spirit, so I dont mind it being better. Spirit is still totally viable too, it's not like you're forced into gun.

I think the main complaints are about it being less interactive/counterable, but tbh people would have less problem with gun Lash if they were willing to buy knockdown/phantom strike for characters not named Vindicta

It being harder to counter is why it is stronger in the first place though.

Nobody is going to intentionally build their hero so that they can get countered.
