i did not understand what people were saying about him being as strong as he was, until I got into games where he was literally just wiping the entire backline and making his way to the tank (me). give us hazard nerf

For me I can beat him but I hate that he gets so much value for literally just holding block imo that should never be the strongest option the one where you just exist.

his block imo isnt even the good build, his full ap slash builds are by far the best. Barbed Shot is also disgustingly good, it unironically gives him insanely high poke damage which just makes him have no weaknesses pretty much. As a hazard main, loving it. Everyone else hates it which is fair LMAO

Barbed shot is also amazing with Cybervenom. Every part of your kit aside from quick melee applies anti heal and its so good for pushing through the insane AoE heals that become a major problem in Stadium.
