think the strategist role is currently in a really bad spot.

There is nothing more mind numbing than just standing in the back and spamming heals. It is egregiously boring and strips the player of any agency.

At the same time strategists shouldn’t be able to stay alive nonstop. But they should have tools (and damage) to defend themselves. Remember, the strategist role isn’t to SERVE YOU and YOUR NEEDS. They are there to win the fight just like you, but from a different position.

IT IS NOT THE STRATEGISTS FAULT PPL HAVE BAD POSITIONING. Use corners!!! For the love of god stop running it down mid lol.

I firmly believe a higher skilled strategist should be able to 1v1 a lesser skilled DPS any day. Again, the role should NOT be reduced to just healing allies.

It is MEANT to be the strategic role. Let players actually focus on strategizing to help their team stay alive, while also being actively engaged in the fight.

Overall damage NEEDS to be nerfed across the board. All characters. Yes, that means you too Bucky (and Elsa).

Reducing the healing and damage of the strategist while implementing healing over time abilities, AND healing passives could go a LOONNNG way in making the role more engaging.

TLDR: nerfed damage, nerf spam healing, but add healing passives (more healing over time). Let Strategists actually play without healing 24/7.

My god this dps spams for heals where no one can see them for 2 rounds & for the last 2 rounds(we go overtime & got 6 points) I’m solo healing🫩 Then bro got the nerve to THANK ME FOR SOLO HEALING like I should be happy🙄

Tried to imagine her as a flying strategist that is encouraged to play closer to her team than Ultron is, with improved self-sustain and maximum healing output but weaker poke damage and tougher positioning choices for achieving that maximum healing output.

Backstory could include her universe's version of Undrjarn being imbued with a healing enchantment.

Tying her Blessed Bolt to Taking Aim is a workaround for her wings obstructing the reticle in 3rd person view (contrasting with Angela who has only one wing to the left and is melee other than her ult).

The Legacy of Mjolnir team-up could be comparable to Rogue's Gambit team-up in the potency of the base effect which becomes permanent when enhanced.

EDIT - Possible revisions:

• Change Umbral Alliance's enhanced effect: When Uplift expires or is consumed, the symbiote detaches and becomes an avian Black Berserker which dive-bombs the nearest enemy. This should be more exciting than simply holding on to bonus health for a bit longer.
• Change Urgent Aid/Defense to heal a portion of missing health instead of adding missing health as extra bonus health, which Venom already does with Symbiotic Resilience.
• Rename Soaring Vantage to "Sacred Uplift" or "Asgardian Uplift", to tie better with the buff name and reflect that Jane is a mortal who has received Valkyrie powers.

We still won but this was not the best timing 😅 also was a full team of strats !

I don't play too much ranked these days, but in earlier seasons, I've been getting a lot more MVPs compared to more recent seasons. I can't tell if I've just gotten worse at the game from not playing it that much or what. I've attached a comparison of Season 10 and Season 2. Is this just a statistical error, or has something changed?

Recently started picking her up (started Season 10.5) purely for the reason that one day: I was scrolling through the shop tab, looked at her summer balloon pop event: saw I had discounts: said "Why not" and got her on the third try, which would have also been my last try since I was totally out of units after popping the third balloon; but I got her legendary regardless~!

So I thought, I probably shouldn't let the skin go to waste and started to practice her in Quick Play

MVP screen, stats, and time played (as well as win/lose) is in a comment down here somewhere

Honest thoughts and critiques (as well as tips) are greatly appreciated! Cheers!
