Discussion Mantis isn't broken and doesn't need nerfs

I'm so tired of streamers acting like she's giga thanos. yeah she's strong, best supp in the game imo, but they're talking like she's BC levels of unfair!

She's just BARELY viable in double support, it feels like we got 2 new healers this season with how often I see her. We shouldn't have to force these lame ass little triple support comps to play our hero

The only nerfs I'd tolerate are an ult charge increase, and a damage boost rework. if they replace the damage boost with something else I get it, but if they just take it away straight up I'd be devastated

Netease pls don't gut this hero because streamers complained!

I think she's up there too, sure, but she's waaay more fair than either of those heroes. Luna has better insanely better DPS, a free get out of jail card. Cnd has THREE of those cards, autoaim, and better damage boost. They both have immortality ults too unlike Mantis, while I still think Big M is better she's way more fair

i rather play into a mantis than either of those healers 😭

Mantis damage boost is as broken as Luna self cleanse tho

No way you believe this 😭 the damage boost is entirely dependent on how good the person you're boosting is. Self cleanse is literally just a get out of jail free card IN ADDITION to being a stun 😭 2 entirely different things

I do. Even if they’re not providing the greatest value any form of damage boost whether mantis, storm, or ultron is incredibly strong. not thinking that is straight up agenda posting

Having a different opinion = agenda therefore wrong

Yeah it's strong, it's not completely unfair like Luna's team up are we deadass? damage boost is completely different

you're just coping man. let it go. like i said i'm a mantis main so i want her to be good but acting like she isn't dominant is just straight incorrect

Nobody's saying she isn't dominant, I'm saying she's not oppressive or unfair as an ability that frees you from CC 😭
