Actually I meant to write Anka, but got fuddled - although Inara is impactful just not over the top - I think.
Anka impactful? Not surprised either. Doesnāt matter, if itās as good in 5v5 that means she is still broken in 3v3. I donāt think I want to suffer her anymore, soā¦ I will come back in 3.9. Not worth my time.
Soā¦ farewell WP junglers / carriesā¦ not surpised to see a non balanced update in terms of CP and WP, the balancing team is Zekent and Sonata, who clearly doesnāt have any idea about their own game.
Remember Sonata was the one balancing talents, what could you expect?

And Zekent CP Vox when first released
Now: hey, cc is broken right now, you know what can we do? Nerf itās only counter to hell! This balancing is a joke.
Guide for 3v3, how to win: spam Catherine, with the crucible nerf now they canāt block the silence, and no team can fight silenced for 2.5s, pair it with any other cc hero and there you go to gold!
At this point I donāt even know if i should laught or cry.
Lyra isnāt impactful?
And your thoughts on malene despite lesser ranger and slow?

UwU but forreal about lyra and melon
With Anka being as strong Lyra may struggle (and what carry doesnāt?) .
Ankas A is blocked by Lyras B when I used to play mid

You know that lyra can easily counter anka lolā¦ her moves are predictableā¦ as she will appear behind you and you drop your A on your spot depleting her health. ZONE her with your Bā¦ she tries to flee?. Teleportā¦ and lyra AA kills her easily.

Its not goodbye - they took on board a lot of feedback and interated pretty rapidly and at the end of it, yes WP heroes are a bit weaker than they were but the feeling was they needed live data to continue adjusting.
They have a pretty good idea about the game, but you canāt make this scale of changes and expect perfect balance as a result.

Its really not at all as bad as that - you deal with the silence via positioning etc.
I really like that they are leaning into items having defined purposes.

Lyra I didnāt see played CP in my matches so I didnāt want to comment - in my opinion she will be strong since all the AA based CP heroes get a bit of a boost from these changes I think.
Malene seemed fine to me - that said I havenāt seen her recently and there were changes all the time so its possible she is worse than I think she is - but she benefited from a fair few of these changes.
Since its a āask me anythingā threadā¦

I get asked that a lot so here is my cut and pasteā¦
My name is David. So when I was a kid I hated being called Dave - mostly because it led to Davey and my sister singing songs about the old frontier, so when I hit my rebellious goth years I would introduce myself to people as āDavid, id for shortā and my friends tended to mostly call me id as there were two other Davids in my class/social group. My wifes name is Simone and she was always Mon for short - when she first started doing art (she paints, sculpts, sews, crafts and is generally amazing) she signed her work Mon fish. So when we left New Zealand we decided we needed an email account to keep in touch with folks and why not share one - so we combined our nicknames into idmonfish@gmail.com - then after that we decided we needed more than one email account (luxury I knowā¦) and she made herself a new one - and since I had used idmonfish everywhere for everything I just kept using it.
Correct pronunciation is āid mon fishā and definitely not āid mom fishā as my guildmates sometimes try onā¦

This was how Zekent pronounced it the one time I was randomly drawn to win ICE on a dev stream.
