HiRez: Why shoot for the top when you can have the middle?

It's almost like someone said... "hey, you know that god everyone wanted us to nerf? Yeah, I forgot."

Then they threw an arrow at a chart and it hit Freya and everyone was like, SEEMS RIGHT.

Freya's problem wasn't with her damage output, exactly, I think it had to do with her burst damage and the troll Banish. And as usual, HiRez changes the wrong thing.

Geb geb didn't need that much of a nerf to his shield...and they still didn't fix how it's a Aegis and Beads into one late game...

I'm happy about the Baka fix and Arachne change though. After seeing Arachne having the most terrifying level 1 invasions* in the game, I'm glad her early game got a nerf.

*Triple kill on FG side, wiping out our mid, solo, and jungler. Against semi-competent players.

I'm in agreement with Raventhor (for once): the nerf was completely unnecessary and uncalled for.

For once? Sunfall pls D:

Anyway, I'm surprised this thread inspired so much discussion, to be honest. It seems there's a general consensus with a few outliers. I guess we'll just have to sit back and watch how it rolls. Give a freya a full build and see if she still can carry. If she can't kill a god in a few seconds, she's ruined. And I know a few seconds sounds harsh, but understand if she can't kill a SINGLE god in a few seconds, there's no way she can carry a team against 5, with both of her spells being required for a kill, and both going on a decent sized CD.

Geb nerfbat so hard. Half base health on that shield now, before factoring in Geb's health, is quite a bit on its own.

Still no end to Chaac's reign of terror in sight.

To be quite honest, I've never really had trouble dealing with him. After he pops his ult, there's nothing much about him that is a threat to me. Lay down some quick crit-laden attacks, and you can beat him down.

I don't think Geb's shield got nerfed that badly, really. The base HP it offer was halved, but it still relies heavily on Geb's own life like before.

Nothing much to tell about this patch, really. So small... Well, Freya got nerfed for good reasons. I was expecting that from a long time. She can LITERALLY 2 hit squishies like Ao late game.

Back to the topic, Geb nerfs. I was also waiting for that. Good see they happened.

Naaaah, that's it. That's my today's patch analysis.

Exactly. It's almost like they're just grasping at straws.
