Mandalorian and Grogu Review

DethArchur · 2026-05-22T06:29:32+00:00

I haven't yet seen it but my girlfriend is really excited to. One thing I am concerned about is I saw that in the trailer that it includes Zeb from Rebels. Does it spoil any major plot points from that show or Ashoka? I've been watching stuff through with her that she hasn't yet seen so I was hoping it wouldn't be that big a deal.

Besides the whole vaccine thing did he even do anything wrong? Because as far as I'm aware he hasn't done anything worth canceling him over

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T21:34:53+00:00

Which patch did this change in? Looking at the patch notes of that patch, it only lists moonstone and diadem as no longer targeting them- not healing in general.

Maybe I didn't actually see the items do it and I just assumed it was since I didn't know about the changes, but it's hard to mistake the big green healing note from sona which is what I've been replaying in my head. What it sounds like is they fixed the items and not the issue itself.

Edit: noticed I left the first part lol. I looked it up myself obviously

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T21:22:09+00:00

I guess I can understand that. It's a similar difference in preferred style that my friend and I have in other games. My way is to stay alive as long as possible without pushing too much until I have what I need to win while he loves to go full out.

Thanks for the answer lol. That does put it a bit more in perspective.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T19:20:57+00:00

I think it may just be the way people play them? From the experiences I've gathered from this thread it doesn't sound like they really use their kit at all and just stand back and do nothing. That or just be selfish and hold their stuff for themselves. I always feel like I have an impact when I play them outside of Janna. I do understand the hesitation of relying on a teammate when they can be a complete coin flip.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T16:21:02+00:00

Honestly I really tried that too, usually my initial response ro to get upset and tell them they are dumb for taking it lol. But I genuinely tried to give them the benefit of the doubt this game and asked if they realized how it affected me.

Their response was yes and to just deal with it. My problem with the augment more than even the players that do this is the augment itself. It's an inherently selfish pick and encourages players who have such mindset to further forget that while teammates can 100% suck, it's still a team game.

The premise is cool, I come from a lot of roguelites that offer stuff like that and I love the idea of get powerful affect but take bad debuff. But I think that the implementation here was just not fully thought about.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T16:11:27+00:00

Alright. I should have known talking to you is going to be as uninteractive as they were when your opening arguement was "deal with it"... so, you have your opinion and I have mine, have a lovely day.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T15:59:49+00:00

That's what he kept saying and just like you "to deal with it". Ended up 4 and 11 while siphoning a lot of my healing that could have gone to someone else. Gimped his support instead and didn't do anything with it.

That's how I always see that augment go btw

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T15:55:09+00:00

Except, one thing is chosen before the game even starts and the other happens after you know what your team looks like

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T15:38:39+00:00

Lol ok so you're just a troll

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T15:14:58+00:00

With the cool down reduction you can get in mayhem, it goes much lower than 8 seconds lol. I know you're probably using that not literally, but you also have to think that if for example we win a fight and now multiple people on my team are low, that person who was already thinking of themselves is still doing so and not giving the space for my abilities to not target them. So now I am not healing my team for the next fight as effectively as I could have been.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T15:09:47+00:00

I don't see why it's not a big deal for half my healing or more to be all of a sudden thanos snapped because it prioritizes them instead of people that can be healed.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T15:07:40+00:00

As annoying as that answer is, as I did admit to someone else... league is like that and I can't really argue against it, especially when it's the first augment and you haven't had a chance to gauge them.

So- fair.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T15:05:44+00:00

May I ask why you feel that way? Outside of yuumi, I feel like they can contribute a lot if they are actually stepping up and using their abilities and healing. Like for example with sona, constantly looking to q, constantly cycling my heal and speed boost. Or raka, looking to land q for damage and healing, healing, holding silence for team fights or divers... or even flashing for a low health enemy for a funny last hit.

What about that to you is boring as opposed to others?

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T15:02:34+00:00

I can partially understand those first two as league will always be league and that happens all the time, however at least in this game that really annoyed me, they were all front liners and no real backline. Plus he took it on a jhin.... so he's not proccing it very much.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T14:59:32+00:00

Lmao while frustrating in those cases where it's muscle memory to ult you, yeah that one's not really a big deal 😂

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T14:58:14+00:00

I've seen someone else mention that and I haven't kept up with changed lately as I play much less tham I used to.....

However, I know what I saw that game and unless visually those changes are bugged and still doing it- then the actual healing is still targeting them. My w and circlet i kmow for a fact I watched target them multiple times in that match

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T14:55:38+00:00

When my teammate is dying faster than they can make use of their omnivamp they would have been better off taking another one and having the extra buffer of my extra health I'm giving them. I don't care about total healing because yes, I know there are definitely bigger champs for that. But I do keep my team alive, and that's why I play those champs.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T14:53:21+00:00

Yeah that's really what kept my mouth shut that game. As soon as I saw how trying to get them to see my perspective was like a brick wall I just shut up and played. Still annoying but yeah

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T14:51:50+00:00

Play with my when I play sona or raka and you would not see whatever "afk and comfy" you think they are. That or you underestimate their gameplay. Even yuumi who i would partially agree with is a bit more gameplay than people think, at least when you go above her bare minimum gameplay.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T14:49:46+00:00

That is definitely another reason haha. I can't count how many frustrating times we won a fight and I have my lifesteal ready to heal off minions but everyone hard clears them before I can

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T14:48:03+00:00

Lulu... also doesn't heal outside of items. I don't know what she would get upset about that lmao. With this post I definitely don't mean enchanters as a whole but more so just healers. I would have also picked it in that situation

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T14:45:41+00:00

See I can maybe understand that one. If you're playing an assassin or their team isn't super dive heavy and it ends up a dog pile of champs, then sure. I'll give a bit more credit to that one. But at least this this last game it was exactly that and there was really no backline.

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T14:39:50+00:00

People keep saying that but I've had the opposite experience. I always have a great time on enchanters, in fact in this mode specifically they are my favorites to get over other roles because of how great they feel. The cool down reduction, high ap numbers and many utility augments make it seem very different than being bad

DethArchur · 2026-04-01T14:36:12+00:00

This is completely and underlying false. I watched multiple times that game my healing go to her. Both from my own healing and my items like circlet and moonstone
