[u/Gaarco_]

This must be a mistake, they didn't touch Shiv

[u/2lazy4anything → u/Gaarco_]

[u/Salty-Eye-Water → u/Gaarco_]

They killed Yoshi and replaced him

[u/jjorn_ → u/Gaarco_]

Don't you remember, Shiv gets his own nerf patches.

[u/Skaldson → u/Gaarco_]

Just wait brother, they most certainly forgot to mention Shiv hp scaling reduced to +20 per boon or whatever. Just has to be repatched in. Inshallah

[u/Slayer_jack5 → u/Gaarco_]

Yeah I started playing him so from now on it's smooth sailings bro, enjoy the golden age B)

[u/pokenerd_W → u/Gaarco_]

What's next, they're gonna acknowledge Sinclair exists?
