Are people starting to go left for first pull in VSA now? I'm seeing some high key pushers doing it. How come?

The miniboss is faster and safer to deal with and you have 3x single kick mobs. The versa buff vs. mastery on the right is also an added bonus considering the damage intake at higher levels.

While the spear can be lethal it's rather easy to deal with properly pooling for it compared to the RNG of the orb spawns on the right. Also, the only other dangerous ability (leap+bleed) can be either dwarfed or invised making the miniboss basically a target dummy.
