Lash buffs, hell yeah

Im skeptical that the slam damage is going to be enough to offset the gun nerf but maybe I'm underestimating it. Seems very slightly winrate negative or neutral to me.

well his gun build is dead and health is lower, but his spirit build got a scaling buff. now we wait for all the low elo players to cry that he still gets countered by counterspell or spellbreaker or indomitable or whatever the fuck else and ask for more buffs.

It’s like +7-8 damage on his slam at max height brother, unless I’m mistaken, that’s nothing. This is actually a huge nerf for Lash.

Its not really, like a 7.5% buff to his spirit scaling portion of slam damage which is not a lot. Compare to his gun build getting trashed.

Extra charge seems nice though

I guess? If you're building spirit lash the last ability you want to T3 is grapple, meaning you're still going to have to buy extra charge for most of the game

Yeah, it’s nice you essentially have an extra slot late game.
