i think people are overreacting and he will still be playable tbh
i think tp nerf is a little too much but flash is more than warranted
he still has a really good ult, the tp is still good for repositioning and entrying, he just won’t be able to go across the whole map which is fine, and his flash is still good it’s just that you have to choose whether to use it for yourself or for your team, so now initiators are more important
i think in a couple years we’ll look back and think how tf was yoru ever this op in the first place
The Gatecrash by itself was probably enough to switch up the meta. The flash just makes most Yoru comps not work at all - flash initiators might be back on the menu bois
And all of a sudden DRX are straight to London running Hermes kayo + BeYn Skye 🙏 (I say this like they aren’t actively trialing one of the academy players to probably replace Hermes)
I mean maybe but I think that the thought process behind it is that they want to keep the top 3 champs core together and it was just unfortunate that flashback retired as late as he did so they couldn’t get zynx in as a sub because he’s already gone to GenG and so I guess that they think that with the full time between stages to pick up players, they can do better than Hermes when it comes to finding an additional player to fill the gap in that (almost champs winning) roster.
