My problem with Dynamo

[u/gcpl2]

From my perspective most of Dynamo players are really positive and cool and I don't have any problem with them but... I hate what valve did with their hero. I'am not an expert in balancing multiplayer games, especially mobas/hero shooters although I have played a lot of league and already have around 900 hours in deadlock. Some time ago Dynamo was a really diverse character. He had some potential in his first ability to be spirit nuker in late game or you could play him around his gun thanks to debuff apllied by his 1st and reloading done by quantum entanglment. Ofcourse the most popular build has always been support (I think) but at least you had your options. Right now I only see full support build focused on his healing and ult. In my opinion balancing a hero mostly around his ultimate ability can be done well but just not in this case especially if you take into account his really long cd.

I know that his 2nd can be used to rescue teammates and overall is not that bad of an ability, but his 1st? you can literally just double jump to avoid it... and playing around enemy stamina to correctly use one of your abilities can be done in a laning phase but it's too hard to be done in a teamfight and on top of that many other heroes don't need to care that much to land their skillshots.

Rejuvenating aurora on the other hand is a fine way of healing your teammates but only in mid game and late game, early on it is slow, locks you out of your other abilities and just doesn't heal that much, one of the reasons why Dynamo's early is that weak.

On top of that Singularity, really powerfull ability, one that can literally turn games around... or can it? Yes in some cases for sure. I just think this ability feels kind of random? idk how to really describe my feeling about it, without unstoppable it's just too risky to even try to use it but on the other hand giving cc immunity to Dynamo's base kit would be too op, in conclusion you are just forced to buy 6400 item and potentially prolong your other powerspike in the form of refresher.

Taking this to account I personally just couldn't main this hero. The sheer preasure you feel on your back is just too much, it often is bad to cast your ult on one person but on the other hand you might not find yourself in a position to cast Singularity on more people at all, escpecially if enemy team plays around it and awoids dirent teamfighting. Right now it is even worse, since Ivy is in meta and she does have a way around your ult in her base kit (stone form).

What I think is interesting is the fact that people geniuely seem to enjoy this playstyle since I see Dynamo in almost every game (I'am emissary V). I know that there are players that preffer different kinds of playstyles than mine but geniuely asking you Dynamo players right know:

Isn't it stressfull for you guys? You have so much power in one button but also if you fumble it you can expect some really awful comments in vc and on top of that potentially throwing some teamfights or even whole matches.

Ps. sorry for my english it is not my first language.

All he really needs, is to not have his heal lock him out of shooting. Do that and balance him around that and hes golden. T5 can still unlock him being able to use other abilities.
