I'm going to expect a Nu Wa nerf next update, because this is just absolutely ridiculous. Every time I run into a Nu Wa she insta-kills me with her 2+3 combo. She just presses 2, and of course it homes in on the opponent so good luck escaping that. Then she throws the 3 at one of the minions and it's like you got hit with an Ao Kuang ultimate, AND it stuns you. Even if it didn't stun it would still be completely OP, but I'd really like to meet the unbelievably intelligent guy who thought adding a stun would be a good idea. Right now she has about as much burst damage as a ****ing Loki. Her 2 + 3 + 1 combo is enough to kill just about any mage, adc, or assassin, but if it doesn't...well...your ulti can't miss, now can it? Her 2+3 combo might not insta-kill tanks or bruisers, but her 2 shreds a lot of your magical protections so it has high damage even against tanky opponents.

She's the only god I consider to be game-breakingly OP at the moment, because that added to her ultimate makes for a very unpleasant game for anyone playing against her. But now that I'm talking about it I might as well finish. Her Ultimate does A LOT of damage at mid-late game. If you're a squishy that's 33% percent of your health gone since the thing cannot ****ing miss. 33% percent of most of the teams health bar gone is enough to send any teamfight spiraling in the other direction. I'm seriously banging my head against the wall trying to figure out why they would release such a broken god.

Her ult should be skill shot, not like your sitting on a couch and stand uplike you won a lottery when you killed someone with your ult.

Pretty much this. I'm fine, though not really happy with the rework changes, with everything else in her kit, other than the fact her metal shard can explode all 3 clay soldiers and do a stupid amount of damage accordingly. Other than that, she's fine. I just dislike how stupid easy it is to land hits on her ult (impossible to miss). Maybe if it hit up to 3 at the most, I'd be fine with it, but to be able to hit everyone on the map is a bit ridiculous in my eyes.

ANd also her ability to stun you with her minions, it already deals crazy damage, but why stun? Some kind of Scylla skill shot out there, Hirez.......

I don't mind her stun. It can be annoying for sure, especially when coupled with a well timed root when the stun ends, but it does take two of her abilities to hit a stun off. When it comes to that, they just need to limit the combo to one clay soldier, and if anything else, maybe reduce the radius in which the effects take place.

Yes, your fine as long as your near to your minions, but it's not fitting for a mage that has 2 CC:

Nu Wa got 2 CCs that cripples and her Shining Metal to stun.

Let's see the other mages:

Scylla only got her Sic 'Em.

Agni only got his Noxious Fumes to stun.

Anubis got his Mummify that the only thing to help his other abilities to melt the enemy.

I guess it's pretty unfair for the other mages... What do you think? In my opinions, remove her stun, or maybe change her passive that fits more, maybe a slow instead of cripple since she already got a stun. CCs are overpowered on this game besides wards.

It's less the stun that's the problem and more the insane amount of damage it does.

Scylla has nothing to complain about, especially when her Sick 'Em at max level will grab multiples.

Agni also has nothing to complain about.

Anubis, while he's great at what he does, should be looked at by HiRez anyway. Plus, to be fair, his stun is a quick, 1 ability stun, same with Scylla. Like Sweet said above me, it's the damage that's the big issue, not so much the stun itself.

I really can't say I mind anything being unfair to other mages considering how stupid powerful they are in this game. However, I might be okay if they made it to a slow rather than a root. And yes, CC is pretty OP in this game.

I actually thought that her ult is the only good ability
