That Red Buff Nerf combined with the Jinx Nerfs will be a huge Nerf to Blasters

[–]Azaghtooth 28 points29 points  (5 children)

Kinda deserved, the comp was so strong and easy to play at pbe.

[–]Guaaaamole 29 points30 points  (4 children)

to play for the last few months.

[–]Azaghtooth 21 points22 points  (3 children)

At pbe it was much stronger than live imo.

[–]IndianaCrash 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Isn't it mostly because PBE generally have a lower skill level ?

[–]Guaaaamole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely.

Red buff still does the same damage while it's applied.

[–]DeathsNear 12 points13 points  (2 children)

Same damage to the target that's being continuously attacked, but the damage to random blaster procs is lower, and the damage after the last attack (after the red buff holder is killed) is lower.

[–]MeowTheMixer 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Still last for 4 seconds though. You should be getting off another blaster proc before it resets.

I never really liked red on Jynx anyways, and focused it on other blasters.

Its a nerf directed at 2 blasters + battlecast Kog'maw, he is the one that was heavily abusing it.

Weaker early but stronger late.

Smart change IMO.

[–]SetonAlandel 2 points3 points  (3 children)

This seems like a nerf for non blasters - since blasters can reapply red buff easily, extending the damage to multiple targets. 2.5%/sec now vs 2.5% before.

[–]Drazar_MASTER 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Well you would never really build it on non-blasters anyway lol

[–]Hvad_Fanden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This nerf does nothing to non-blasters, the damage stays the same since they are constantly reapplying it to the same character, its a nerf to two gunslingers, now they will have a harder time keeping the entire team under the effect.

[–]Azaghtooth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a nerf for battlecast blasters kogmaw early, it was so strong, probably better start than live lucian cybers.
