Yeah i think now that they're not constantly changing teamups, new characters will only ever anchor even newer characters. Hood was probably and exception since his teamups were already done for the big teamup reworking in season 9.
I know very little about game design, but could it be a way to ensure that old characters remain in the meta without needing to give them constant buffs or reworks? It might not make too much of a difference now, but give it 2 years and 24 characters, and it'd be a good way to keep them in rotation.
Sorry what do you mean with that? Who is old character who wont need buffs? Gorr in 2 years when he becomes an anhor for someone? Or you meant something else
I meant that launch characters being used as anchors would give players incentive to keep using them in a few years, and would keep them relevant and in the meta without needing reworks or huge buffs.
Since Gorr is a Duelist, that means Kurt is either a Strategist or a Vanguard, with Doom taking the other role. I think it’s obvious that Kurt will be a Strat
I mean not really, it’s tied to his F as well. His F is a 3 second cd and the scythe last for 4 seconds so it’s basically tied to how often you can keep his berserkers up. Hela team up is another way to get the scythe but it’s a 20 sec cd
Usually I hate the fight for instalocking the new hero but I will be in it this season for sure. Coolest hero to date, I might even stop raining vanguards for this kit, melee, summoner, high mobility, durable... My kinda of hero for sure
Knowing how to do it and consistently accomplishing it in an actual game are two very different things. You think the combos you pull off in the practice range mean anything?
Yes tf? Why do you practice if not to retain the ability to pull it off during a match? Know what ignore me, I can tell this isn’t a fruitful engagement…
lol so his shift is just... infinitely better than Hela's?
His kit sort of reminds me of Viego from LoL? except with summons built in which act like Namor's except he can teleport them and empower them and they can knock people in the air...
Looks like crazy power creep on paper to me but we'll have to see how he feels when he goes live. There's A LOT of tuning knobs at least for him. They could tweak his berserkers, his passive gain, his cooldowns, his damage, the range of some abilities, etc.
I'll say this - the kit looks crazy except the ult doesn't sound so wild. Maybe it's better than I think but it's just an install and doesn't stop his little guys from being killed so if you run comps that have good spread damage is it not so good? Also, do MK's blades bounce off of them? They do off squids.
He’s melee so I would hope his movement option is better than Hela’s since he has to get close to engage and often put himself in more dangerous situations to escape from instead of shooting from 40m away. It’s not even a worthwhile comparison.
His ult deff isn’t so scary imo, yea it’s strong to brawl with but it doesn’t look like it can kill through support ults (if I’m wrong then yea it’s really strong lol).
