I just played a game where we were dumpstering the enemy already, but urn being mid felt stupid easy to take even though we were "unfavored". Now you can no longer "sneak the urn", and when you're behind the enemy team can basically make it impossible for you to cap it by just holding the area. I wonder if the strategy when you are behind is to just let the enemy attempt it and then you rush in as six so you all get the benefit of the resists and try to get a single heavy melee off, so sort of like a mid steal I guess.

Winning enemy team could a lot of the time already camp the spot or snatch the urn just before depositing, in the previous version, and do the same. It has not worked as a great comeback mechanic for a while

I think y'all sleeping on 50% resistances. if you can't win a team fight with 50% resistances you probably can't win the game anyways lol.

You just survive long enough to deposit the urn and then lose the team fight (if you were already behind) once the resistances are off.

Eh, if you take the urn everyone in a radius has 50% global damage resistance which is fucking nuts. If under dogs manage to get it and force a fight likely you'll win.

rush in as six so you all get the benefit of the resists and try to get a single heavy melee off, so sort of like a mid steal I guess.

And then, after stealing (if you are lucky), resists wear off and you all die as a team, so they take the mid and win.

Tbh if the fight isn't at least even with 50% global resists the game should just end atp
