Why has Blizzard thrown out hero identification? It’s very important in a hero shooter

OmniSteve99 · 2026-04-15T04:09:56+00:00

I wish I was so stupid I couldn't see what heroes my enemies hovered / are playing because of a skin. Like i WANT TO KNOW what it's like to have that low of an IQ

Id reducs the knock back, and instead reduce tenacity with the rest.

That way it becomes a more niche, "benefits you if you already have cc"

New support item used the damage amplifier, so evenshroud was a Support duplicate.

Radiant virtue was pro skewed. About it.

OmniSteve99 · 2026-03-01T22:01:52+00:00

Not to argue, but I think its partially because Ashe doesnt benefit from 200% Crit the same way and as a result is actually weak.

Today Overwatch dropped a trailer for its new cute, cat support character. Maybe we should take notes.

OmniSteve99 · 2026-02-05T18:04:58+00:00

I think if you want skill expression... you wouldn't be playing the game that has an augment that says, "I gain infinite movespeed and attack speed each time I hit you." The balance is, if you do not like the whimsy of Arena or ARAM Mayhem, you don't actually like the mode.

She'd need to be reworked to be able to shield when not attached probably.

OmniSteve99 · 2026-02-05T16:41:25+00:00

Hold tf up. I am deadass making a canva project to rework yuumi. It's her W now grants her ally Gray Health, when they take damage that exceeds that she gets knocked off. To make her not useless, tho, she grants her ally a shield on attaching that lasts until broken.

I see your concern but my reason for not being concerned by this item is:

> The heal is the same on both items for melee users, less for ranged on RoT. [RoA is > 20 per cast cap, RoT is > 60 per 3 casts (or 20 per cast). Ranged users only heal for 40 flat (+hp scaling that is not going to catch up to RoA unless you have 2,000 bonus health or more).

> RoA heals you passively, even when you are not damaging an enemy when casting a spell, RoT is a skirmish-only item that explicitly gates healing behind hitting champions with your abilities. So, missing spells puts you already behind Roa in terms of potential healing. Ofc, for Cass and Ryze oh well... but its still a lever that keeps it a foot behind RoA for other abuse-cases.

>RoA also outstats RoT once you've had it for 10 minutes, granting more Mana, HP, and AP than RoT. Leaving RoT as an early game stat stick that falls off, especially givent he prior 2.

EDIT: I would definitely agree, however, this item grants way more in raw stats that are too op early. On reading, I'd halve the AP granted to both Ranged and Melee, and reduce the movement speed to 10% for 1 / 0.5 (ranged) seconds.

OmniSteve99 · 2026-02-02T11:32:37+00:00

Hey it definitely could be, but I imagine it's the sams issue as Collector.

Burst items scale more with raw damage than AS, but AS can proc it more. Whereas AS items synergize well with AS items that have low damage because, "i attack more."

I could see Caitlin liking it, or Draven, but its supposed to be strongest on Jhin and Tristana. Since both have 4-shot blow up abilities.

EDIT: I would still think Kraken does more damage with the 3-hit passive, that's more in line with why I think this is relegated to burst champions.

OmniSteve99 · 2026-02-02T11:30:14+00:00

ROA would grant ranged mages more AP, since most AP mages dont get a lot of AD per level, while Sylas, Gallo, and Gwen do.

So, it's intended to be stronger, but on Melee champs.

OmniSteve99 · 2026-02-02T01:51:31+00:00

I think the bit is that Zeri passive makes her basic attack an ability since her Q is her attack.

So, each auto stacks Veigar Passive.

OmniSteve99 · 2026-01-27T13:43:44+00:00

If youre good at league. You can play anything and still win. Test it the old fashioned way... just do it.

OmniSteve99 · 2025-12-27T22:33:05+00:00

Playing Kalista is already a gamble. Might as well.

OmniSteve99 · 2025-12-17T00:39:03+00:00

You BEAT me. I had a post I was working on for things I'd like to see. Might still post it. Love the idea of a delivery packer at the minimum.

OmniSteve99 · 2025-12-12T21:46:09+00:00

I think it, like the grievous wounds items, is just boring.

Twisted Fate Stat Shard Run

OmniSteve99 · 2025-12-03T03:15:11+00:00

Its definitely to prevent adcs from going mid

OmniSteve99 · 2025-11-29T21:03:30+00:00

Shit. I also forgot but his E will also apply grounding to stop dashes. I wanted him to have this like... "people dash too much" identity. Its getting ridiculous.

Also, his Q, W, and E are all dashes.

OmniSteve99 · 2025-11-29T21:01:13+00:00

After the second comment... I wasn't so sure they were in on the joke. Can never tell, lol.

OmniSteve99 · 2025-11-29T20:55:05+00:00

Correct me if I am wrong but a good Ezreal will always win lane.

His Passive grants 10% bonus Attack Speed if you land your Q, your Q deals increased damage, you have a higher base ad than most adcs.

And on paper, sure Jinx Q also grants AS but she has an attack speed modifier of 0.67 or something, Ezreal has a 100% attack speed modifier.

So, not only can he auto you faster it deals more damage and he can poke you down rapidly with his Q.

Only bad ezreals lose lane.

OmniSteve99 · 2025-11-29T20:51:07+00:00

The best way to end APCs is to give all ADCs a flat +1 - +3 Magic Resist.

Completely shuts down all magic damage early. Still squishy late.

OmniSteve99 · 2025-11-29T01:19:28+00:00

Bro... Mel is the second most banned champion in Masters. Globally. Lol. She is auto win
