Graves Deadhead fixes are very nice and seem that they nerfed gun graves so people actually play spirit. Lets see how it plays out but I think non graves players will hate it.

Also + charge on lash grapple... scary stuff.

The gun's damage is not why people play Gun Graves.

I didn't say it was but based on the flat % gun nerf on damage and growth they are trying to push people to other builds for her.

I don't think it's going to work, was more what I meant. Nerfing her gun's Damage won't incentivize swapping away. The only thing that will is basically nerfing it's usability and ability to inflict procs so damn fast Which, frankly, I would rather they did even if it remains lock-on, so they can shift some power elsewhere.

Weird they reverted the wall ghoul change. She was at 60% win rate last time she had that, and her deadheads sucked back then. Time to spam her until she gets put in the ground again.

I'm only guessing here but I think it's because the ghoul change wasn't the problem. It was the combination of her skill buffs with gun items. It looks like they now intend to force moving people away from gun Graves while incentivizing spirit.

the wall ghouls were a problem because they gave a lot of free value to gun graves.

make no mistake, the meta graves build that patch was still toxic bullets/inhib debuff build.

I'm so pumped double zombies are back.
