This god is not broken or OP in any way shape or form. Sure, in theory, his abilities (mainly 1) sound like they would be OP. But, that is only in theory. You are never going to land the 1 every single time, even if the enemy is slowed. Both of his skills are pretty easy to dodge, and his 3 is hard countered by any dashes. His ult also has a very sub-par range and a very small radius, also making it a ***** to hit. His autoattack progression also makes his damage seem very lackluster. I'm sure he would be quite a strong support, but other than that, I honestly think he could use a buff.

Anyway, I've been able to beat the **** out of his face with mercury every single time, although his 3 makes him a good challenger.

He's quite the boxer, but his CC is kinda *** and his ult is hard as balls to hit since it's a slow dash and the range is meh best case sceario. Also, his whip thingy doesn't do a ton of damage anyway.

I'm not afraid of him. Nemesis is still way scarier to me.

Anyone else feel that he really needs to have his base health increased?

TBH I find him in a REALLY good spot. I'd only change one of two things:
Make his base movement speed faster, as someone with no gap closer. Thanatos is in a similar boat, but DOES have a huge movement speed buff. Osiris is basically old kali - he just doesn't have speed at all

OR

Make his 2 fire much more quickly. If he can't catch his opponents easily, at least give him easier to land poke, because it's not even THAT solid of a nuke.

Otherwise, I find him amazing. He's not an early game juggernaut, which we're used to, so we immediately brand him as UP. He's not. His late game, with swing progression, is TERRIFYING. You just need to survive the early game.

Honestly, his 2 is extremely annoying. It's as hard to dodge as Suppress The Insolent. Honestly, I don't think he needs a base movement speed increase. He has a 20% movement speed increase on his 2, a 3 second 20% slow on a 5 sec cooldown with 30 mana cost, and the ability to increase that slow to 50% for 4 seconds. On top of that, he has his jump, which, sure, he needs to use his ult to do that, but that's still a jump. It'd be like saying that Guan Yu needs more mobility/gap closer/base movement speed. I found him nearly unescapeable, somewhat like release Nemesis, but not as much. The last think he needs is more gap closers. Oh, and did I mention that he has free Hastened Fatalis after ulting and casting abilities?

Jordenito..Guan has his 2, as well. He just...he has nothing. And his 2 is super easy to dodge, his has such a long windup.

I digress, it's just he's basically old kali as far as engagements go.

I know Guan has his 2, but it's an very, very short dash. Osiris already has the highest base movement speed there is - 375. It's up there with Mercury. I don't know how a good with endless slows, high base movement speed, a movement speed buff, a jump and sometimes a Hastened Fatalis effect resembles at all old Kali, who had nothing but a small movement speed buff.

Old Kali = No Gap Closer.

Basically same with Osiris. That's all my comparison means.

This is why he's average. He can STICK to targets. He can't GET to targets.

His ult is a gap closer

Just the fact that Osiris exists means the death of Ao Kuang as a competitive god. Along with any other god without any mobility. Congratulations, HiRez, you forced every damn god to have an escape.

Seriously, if you don't have an escape, you are utterly ****ed. His chase ability is already insane, and that 4 sec delay is nothing. During a gank, you take a second to react, then have 3 seconds to escape, and during which you get a pretty big slow, while he's slapping you.

He's not release-day Guan Yu overpowered, but he's still overpowered, in the sense that he literally conformed the game around his presence.
