Kasumi needs a HUGE BUFF. I love her so much, I don't care if she's the most hated champion in my opinion. There are things that I desperately want Hi-Rez to fix or rework on. First off, body and soul. I would prefer if she had something similar to Seris. Like, the body remains there, but she doesn't take any damage. Because the whole thing of the body being left there is cool, but taking damage is too much in my opinion, only because people tend to focus on Kasumi and it's her only escape, and she's easily to kill due to that Ability. Secondly, her spirit lures, I don't exactly get the point of those. I want them to either be completely reworked, or replaced with a new better ability. Her talents are kind of... shitty too. Third off, the way she attacks. Like, if you miss, you get 1 second cooldown, I absolutely hate that. And if the enemy moves like one millimeter away from the hitscan, you immediately lose your ability to deal damage. So, going up with her against someone like Maeve or Vora or Skye would be a real pain in the ass. That's all I have to say for now, thank you for this video and I really enjoy your content!! Yes I am using my mother's account.
You like the character design my dude, you don't actually like the character. Honestly just let Katsumi throw nails and make her spirt lures work like Grohk totems which all fear if you activate them with a click when sounded. Shadow travel agree change agree. + bomb king bombs stay stuck to her when she travels 😂
Spirit Lures are actually really overpowered in some situations. If you use them right, you can turn almost every flank into the enemy's face because of the fear when you teleport. Don't use the explosion talent, it is a straight up nerf. Put one where a flank could come and keep your eye on it. If it gets activated, first move there normally and let the enemy see you. Afterwards, take cover and teleport most of the time enemy will not expect you to be behind them or just get feared giving you an easy burst combo. You just have to auto a few times and rip their soul But yea everything else she has is useless rn no doubt in that
Caspian needs a rework - but hes not unplayable. Run "It's Got Some Heft" with max heal on sharp stacks and on hits with War. Only use War exclusively unless out of range of enemies, swing war twice early to load a triple shot - third swing deals somewhere near a 1200 burst if you land all shots. Play corners and surprise enemies, never play out in the open. I have been carrying casuals, and doing ok in ranked with Caspian playing this way.
Literally my deck. 180 level on caspian, first created this build right after he came out and i'm always running it. People complain about his weaknesses just because they have no brains to use him.
I can see why a flank player would want torv nerfed. But. Keep in mind he's always been one of the weakest tanks who's only entered his golden age in the last patch or so. And the term buff was miniscule. He needs so much more
Buffs: - Moji (15% more primary fire range, nerfed mark canon, but buffed primary damage). - Kasumi (the devs said they allready Working on her). - Corvus (allready gets a small buff, but imo spreading influence should be in Base kit) - yagorath (first talent should be in Base kit + her last talent should be changed that she gets the heals in STANCE Mode, but nerfed heals)
Skye need a passive that make her invisibility less affected by items. It should make enemies detect her 50% less far. But with a minimum being the base detection range. (or maybe the additional range from items is 50% less effective on her). (OK. Just to clarify. Right now she doesn't need a buff. But her invis has always been broken. The only reason she is good is because she output abnormal amounts of damage. So the day they will decide to nerd her for it to make sense. She will be once again left with no use. Because she doesn't do more damage than other flanks, and invis is worthless as a main feature. So that would maybe be a way of fixing that. Buying illuminate would still make her crumble. But she could play around that because the level 3 would have a range easier to manage. Right now a level 1 or 2 is enouth if you k ow how to play. So a level 3 would basicly be the same. But she would still be able to surprise you even if she isn't right in your face.) Also for other champions. I think corvus healing with it's ult would be a pretty lame change. I would much rather have the ult more frequently and increased the fly speed to oblivion. (just seem fun). Kasumi should get a rework on her. So that her puppet are her main gimmick. Maybe take the auto aim away. And give her a condition to met to activate it again.
Sorry but no. Skye is already the noob-killer flank in the game. If you give her even more invis it will become even more frustrating for low ELO players to face her.
@@elmercy4968agreed. If you want that change you can take away her poison bolt and percentage damage. I was burst mode Victor a few games ago with illuminate three and I couldn't close range her and she knew it. Would get behind me, poison bolt, I'd turn and dump and I'd die every single time with her on a few health and then off to terrorize the rest of my team that wouldn't buy illuminate and got eaten up by her.
I think Skye is fine right now because even in high elo and especially on console shes one of the best flankers in the game, if u dont believe me, watch the video of AndrewChicken, where he showed all the champions winrates in high elo and skye had the highest winrate and one of the highest pick rates. So no, Skye doesnt need buffs at all
@@elmercy4968 buy ilum (also now you could reduce it's cost so that noobs are more enticed to buy it. Also the entire character should get a rework. That's only one part of it. The only reason her invis kill so many noobs is because her main attack is brain dead especially on console.
@@darkeaglecpg3463 I'm not talking about a buff. Her main issue as always been that her invis was worthless. When she is good it's not due to her invis. Or when it is it's because illuminate cost a lot. But this item cost affect every other invis champions differently. So the cost is never good for both her and the others. This is just an idea to ezcentralise her gameplay around the i'vis. She definitely need a rework. Also if she is good right now its only because of numbers. But because of her abilities. She fluctuate between viable and bottom 5 every 5 patch.
Excellent video. Very good judgement. Thumbs up. Only little critique I have. You only mention the winrate if it supports your argument. But the fact that "you can easily buy Illuminate and it is gg" Skye has an 61% winrate somehow slipped your attention. 😎
I think champions who have talents with almost unanimous pick rate need to either have that talent worked into their kit in a weaker form or have that talent removed, things like Nando’s Aegis, plus his base shield feels weird with a duration, a cooldown and an ability lockout? It should actually just work like Aegis IMO base, however other talents like Betty’s Fiery Disposition should be completely reworked since it wouldn’t work in base kit and it’s just annoying
@@elmercy4968 Spitting facts right here,used to play with Scorch years ago until they gutted that Talent now I only play with Formidable since that's the only fun Talent Nando has left. Aegis is for those unga bunga people who "uhh,I'll just spam shield"
@@Andreas444Channeli use aegis but my play style is literally like if i was running formidable, i use my loadout for formidable with Aegis so i can be extremely aggressive while having 0 cooldown on my shield lol
There's a so anoying Kasumi bugg where her hits don't even do damage it's like a ghost hit and it's so bad cause she's bar anyway but the bugg makes it so much worse
Skye is surprisingly strong with a controller because of the autoaim, she has a very high win rate and good movement speed, with the autoaim from console she gets tons of headshots and shreds hard.
Do you think caspian is good? Caspian has more damage than sky and more speed, but he still is bad, and sky is bad as well Just one item in the game is enough to counter her and is completely useless in many maps
@@goku2hidalgo159 Caspian is still totally busted and fun--on maps that suit him or with the right team support. Busted is an exaggeration, of course, but I dominate with him a lot. Problem is most casual Caspians are still playing his Deadly Momentum talent and they often don't use his dashes properly or the dash distance card (which isn't mandatory but as mentioned in the video his mobility is pretty trash with or without it). The meta talent for him his "It's got some heft". The last sword swing, the triple poke, does 1260 with this talent and it can cleave. It feels very nice against Deathball comps and fries tanks that are alone. He can be a little bit too much like a Moji that has vertical mobility, but in some scenarios it's really good feeling pick. Don't play him on maps where it takes too long to flank, or where heroes with better mobility can approach him from above. He's hit or miss on stuff like Warder's Gate. And I still see so many people play him like he's not a melee character. Poking with his gun for anything but getting stacks is usually a waste. Using the "War heals on melee hit card", the movement speed card, and the longer duration on stacks gained by your gun, you can poke and swoop in for kills very reliably. He's really underrated atm in my opinion because of how dominant Deadly Momentum's playstyle was before it was nerfed pretty harshly...but the truth is "It's got some heft" was totally usable it just lacked the reliability of instantly maxing your stacks. Caspian does a lot of damage but he can be hard to execute against some common comps and maps. And like was said in the video that does end up making him feel like a "Damage" character, but it's similar imo to how Tiberius feels like a flank. I don't think they're in the wrong roles. Caspian is good early game, and can snowball. Tiberius actually feels the same way in that regard. Super strong on his maps, awkward on others, has some very powerful early game healing builds that can secure enough of a lead to win when that healing has fallen off.
Vivians mine is actually very useful it can show invis champs to all of ur team and she deals so much dmg and with her 2nd talent the mind explodes when its stepped on or destroyed
16:39 Viktor is easly flanked by every flank or burst champion because of his mobility or because of not having hit-scan burst like cassie or lian. and can't flank anyone like other damages. 25 units leap after deactivating Hustle would be fine.
I’ve said this on some of andrew chicken’s videos but: I feel like they could rework kasumi’s primary to make it fire slow homing projectiles (like maybe spirits or something) instead of that aim bot thing. And make it only home in if you aim at them with your crosshair otherwise they would just have bad bloom. Think rose from plants vs zombies garden warfare.
Terminus is really bad :( he’s a melee tank who isn’t that great in melee range. 650 dps isn’t good, and he’s pretty slow without investing heavily into speed. He’s getting about a 2% move speed buff. That’s nothing.
Makoa literally just needs more hitpoints he only has 4500 but has a giant head and body hitbox (omen completely shits on him btw and can challenge him in his ult)
I disagree that skye need a rework. She has 30% movement speed for going invisible which is basically nimble 4. 10:05 Skye has the best winrate 60%. Giving her dash would get countered by cripple Caspian need his spinning dash to go further like maeve pounce instead of stopping mid-dash. Maybe players can choose to stop mid-dash or dash further. Kasumi just need weapon rework. Make her shoot like ying. Easy fix Imani need to be put on rework tier. She need bug fix
Exactly this. Skye is the only flank without movement ability because she is the only flank that can go invisible. "I find her boring" is for me not a valid argument for a rework.
Imani needs a quality of life changes : fix the bug where you can t shoot till you die, fix the bug where snowball doesn t show up so u can t stop it where u want
I 100% disagree about Koga on PC. 1. You can play controller ON PC and just sit in the back line and laser down the other flanks (most poke flanks are pretty mid rn) 2. His survivability is nuts compared to other flanks, only matched by high elo VII and Zhin and can just laser people
Great input, imp I would rework and remove auto-aim skills such as Lian(2 skills with auto-aim), Lex skills(wallhack, auto aim skill). And minor rework for Zhin, he is such a cockroach that is hard to kill, 2 skills to make yourself untouchable and they can be used in such a short interval, also +2 including his movement skills(ultimate and his whirl) Also remove all aim assist for controllers, the hell is up with that
in my opinion, Vora needs some minor changes. it's the most complex flank in the game, and the fact that it deals relatively low damage, is because of its combo with the dark sigon, and it's ok. it is a very versatile flank and its range and non-falloff damage make it a good pocke damage. To help her it would be good to remove cauterize from her passive in order to give her more survivability. maybe implement the second grappling hook in the base kit to then create a new talent, where maybe for each stack of darkness obtained, it reduces the cooldown of her ability by 0.5 seconds, and give her a damage increase while in the air after having used the tendril. for the ultimate, i only change her the percentage of life it takes to kill an enemy to 70% and that she gets a percentage of health back. but otherwise it's fine. she's an angry dancer wielding a scythe...it's okay if she just does that For VII, I would limit his movement range. it is senseless, excessive and ridiculous. I would reduce the thrust of the grappling hook through the use of cards. and I'd swap the cards that allow him to spam the roll and the grappling hook, making them like Evie and Buck's. after an elimination reduces the cooldown times of skills. I'm Italian and I don't speak English well. I hope I haven't made any mistakes
Allthough Caspian is stugling in competitive he is a very fun pick in casual. I think he should just get buffed instead of going full on rework but maybe they could just change his dashes so he dosent stand still at the end
I main Caspian and I'm kinda agreeing with both sides here. What I would say though is the main thing that makes him feel bad as a flank is his dash and yes it needs to be reworked or at least the ending animation should be removed completely, other than that a few buffs could fix him up pretty good since he's definitely not lacking in damage imo
Dunno about caspian needing buffs. I am stable master-rank via one-tricking caspian, i would say its people's skill issue that they cant play him well.
@@ignis5778 Its more just to make him feel better to play and to make him not the worst flank in the game. I have a pretty good WR on him and I still think he has room for improvements
@@cheesura485 when we have moji, skye, buck, koga, andro etc i dont think caspian is the weakest. Caspian has a skillset that makes him able to 1v1 and win against any single champion in the game besides some tanks like nyx and khan.
I'm so tired of dealing with koga as Bomb King. He's the perfect counter. BK's hitbox is huge and koga does way too much damage for a flank. Also if they just got rid of VII's mines when he dashes he wouldn't be op
Idk about a dmg buff to vora, if i play her i get always top dmg, but if u 1v1 someone and the enemy get healed u have 0 chance against him sooo maybe make the seconed talent base kit and give her a anti heal talent maybe
She has such cool features like the dragon, the ice bomb, the flying skate board, but actually doing damage with her is such a pain. It's kinda a pity that such a cool champ is played so little.
i agree with basically everything on this list EXCEPT Yagorath. She sucks rn and needs pretty substantial buff. im a yago main but it just sucks cause there are so many counters to her right now.
Skye doesn't need a rework.. I dominate with her.. I'm only 66 with her and have shitted on every skye I face against.. even the ppl who have her 400-999. I can even step on most players that run illuminate.. it's about knowing the distance to stay away from those thar run illuminate. Leave her be.. only trash ppl can't play her are think she needs a rework. Her kit is perfect for big brain players.
@@itzchris6300 don't know what you mean by bait. I'm not a child, so I see no logic in baiting others to troll or shit talk. I just speak my opinion... no BS here
Skye needs a complete rework just like revenant in apex just a whole new skye get ride of her smoke and give her teleport something like lobas bracelet and get rid of the sound when she pops out of invisibility those small changes would make her meta
Give skye a bit longer "dash"(roll...) on her hidden but backwards, that stuns for 0.5 sec upto 1 sec? Would need skill to use it offensive, gives her a bit more retreating skills, and its unique. And maybe balance the controller pc gap a little bit bc fast 180 is hard on controller
I disagree on this rework Skye idea. Skye like Seris or Viktor works like this and is very popular like this since many years. Never change a working champion.
From your opinions, I can tell you dotn play half of the champions on a higher elo, maybe even mid elo because there are wo many Champions that should get buffed. Willow in no change? Wild
Question is if every champ has to be viable on high ELO if there is no pro-play. There are 50 champs to choose from and 99% of the players are low ELO. A popular low ELO only champ like Seris is fine in my opinion. There are also high ELO only champs like Atlas or Damba.
I rlly don't understand why the tyra's talent is strong barley now this talent was the same from X years so why she is "OP" NOW??? Why no one played this talent before?? Can someone explain me ??!
Pro players?? I don't think this game is on the pro circuit league.. If I'm wrong lmk where I can find that info... the game is old AF and even dead AF on console .. so I don't see this as a pro game
Inrara isn't doing that good at all. She isn't in the top 5 and that play style is easy to beat by doing what you should do the whole time and kill their backline then keep them off.
Raum should get his juggernaut talent to include cc immunity. Term should be able to use the distance of his shatter fall jump without the cc during cool downs. Yago should get Dambas slither ability so she isn't such a sponge. Agree with Corvus ult buy Corvus and Jenos shouldn't need chronos 3 to be useful. Seris, ying, damba are all way more adequate than those two. Caspian is annoying because it only feels like you're gunning for his ult or making him useful through cards and his dash is trash. Vora's ult needs to stay in first person. Imani needs her ult to stop revealing her. To be less buggy. And all her dmg abilities to apply cauterize. Tiberius needs bucks jump Katsumi needs to be deleted. Octavia needs her head hitbox to not include her big hair. Omen needs a new ult. Or a cripple affect to it. Needing deft hands like Betty is also annoying. Didn't expect to write all that but 🤷🏻♀️ almost lvl 999 so I guess I have opinions too lol
Kasumi doesnt need a buff, she needs to be deleted, or reworked entirely. Kasumi went from one of the best champions, to the worst champion in the entire history off paladins. Kasumi is useless and was never needed, the game is better off without her, or she could use a well deserved rework to bring her back into a state where she is welcome into paladins Edit: i think imani needs a small nerf, i have always found her damage to be a little over the top, and also that beam attack in her fire form is completely busted and has crazy damage numbers imo
