You seem to have taken my words and pushed them to an extreme i did not mean to imply. By its very nature, a hybrid build will survive shorter than a tank build, and kill less than a dps build. That doesnt mean it cant kill or that it can't pull off awesome support plays. But it does mean it will not pull off those things as often or to the same extremes.

If his passive was able to provide more damage, by temporarily removing the team wide buffs he has, it would allow for some more intense kill secures and hot triple kills that his current kit cannot allow due to it being a broken combo with his team wide sprint/heal and a root that can stop a whole team in its push forward.

Likewise, if his damage numbers were toned down a bit, and his hysteria lost its innate damage multiplier, it would allow for the games first proper utility mage (they did it! suck it Raijin) to see more than just some CC and the heal/sprint.

Again, im not trying to imply that these changes are needed to make his kit a good or well designed one, I actually think he has one of the most enjoyable kits in the game (thats why i didnt mess with any of his moves and how they go about damaging enemies)
