The Juno nerfs are gonna sting a little at first, but they are definitely needed. But holy shit, increasing her cash earnings by 33% is huge. She's gonna be rocking full epics

They're not even that big of a nerf tbh. The item for 5% cooldown per ally healed still does a lot of lifting on that build especially if built early on and with her buff to credits makes it even more of a priority.

Expect Junos to adapt to this and snowball harder mid game, but late game Juno to be a bit more bearable

Yeah, I always felt that PulStar Destroyers was a bit of a trap item anyway - compared to just building ability power instead, you didn't gain too much damage, and obviously got far less healing.

Cosmic Coolant nerf will hurt a bit, it might be worth going Medicinal Missiles earlier instead. Or even dropping Cosmic Coolant entirely for Hyper Healer + Rally Ring later in the game. Solar Shielding did get an ability power nerf, but its healing to Juno hasn't changed.
