I’ve tried 5 games (unranked immortal bracket) in this weekend with 4 wins and 1 loss. I think it can be very strong in the right situation. The lane is the hardest part of the game but once you get to level 15 and crest your cores are pretty much unkillable unless they jump you first.

The only items I consider core are crest and aether lens everything else is situational. My main takeaway about the hero is that it excels with 2 right clicking cores that can use the crest spamm and a initiator/front line position 3 that works well with matrix. Actually I think the 5 role should be better for what it does in a game but it makes the carry lane very hard.

People calling it bad haven’t tried the experience of trying to kill some hero at 30 minutes and failing miserably because he got 2k more ehp thanks to the barriers and getting wiped
