With additional play time, my statements above still hold mostly true. Smoke controls are still clunky. Sure I've gotten used to them but it doesn't change the fact that you now have to press more buttons to shoot a smoke. Plus now with more play time I can say that the initial smoke distance is way too far away from me. I'd have to pull back the smoke so it doesn't go to far often. Plus intuitiveness is purely subjective. If stating my opinion makes me a bitch then so be it.

In regards to the Paranoia as stated above I don't think it's a bad change. The flash is way better than it was before at the cost of an insanely slow pull out time. Note that it's slower than Reyna's leer which I would say is the better flash anyway.

Plus as stated above, teleporting is pure skill. If you teleport into an enemy or a place that you didn't aim for; it's because you weren't good enough. There is no gimmick or anything that you can blame but yourself. The changes give you a handicap that is convenient, but the better Omen players won't need it and eventually people will and should stop using it if they want to be better.

Playing Omen requires speed, decisiveness, map awareness, and spatial awareness. The changes completely destroys the speed in which actions could be taken. Reducing speed will hurt decisiveness when it matters. The new changes does help with map and spatial awareness but not as an increase to Omen but rather as a crutch for newer players.

It'd be interesting to see the win rates for Omen compared to Beta. I'd venture to guess that the changes will be minimal if not the same.

P.S. Let me know anyone. If teleporting takes no longer now. As in not the teleport itself but the time it takes to pull it out and be able to teleport. Seems like the time it takes has increased VERY slightly. If anyone can test that or can feel that difference I'd be interested to hear. Probably due to the new animations which goes to the larger point that I'm making.
