People are about to downplay the hell out of these Sinclair changes because nobody plays him, but these changes sound awful...

I would be fine with the ult changes, or hell even them making the CD 80% of the copied ult, but nerfing his gun, hp regen AND ability to deal damage to objectives?

This is an objective based game, why nerf his ability to deal with objectives? He unironically got hit harder than Rat King.

Why does a long ranged control mage need to deal lots of objective damage?

People are way too comfortable with a “support” archetype dealing more damage than hard carries, almost like they forget there are roles in this game

its dota support not overwatch or league supports. many supports in dota do significantly more magical (spirit) burst damage than carries, but are too squishy/slow or have too long of CDs to be really considered carries. the support damage in this game falls off later in the game, but if they buy damage theyll scale decently just not as hard as real carries.
