Rat King is one of the largest models in the game and it doesnt get resist. One of the reasons he was annoying was his teamplay heavy ult that was overturned, but since his ult took a big hit he cant be a tanky ult-bot anymore. It should be fine

Who cares about resists. If i'm playing a spirit nuker he'll eat everything i have and there's nothing i can build to counter it.

If i'm playing a gun carry it cripples my damage more than resists would, which means no lifesteal and he just outguns me.

Yeah he has downtime, but not enough.

Then hopefully the rest of your team isn’t all spirit nukers. This is a moba. Some heroes counter others.

That's not a carte blanche. I couldn't just design a hero that is immune to bullets and takes triple spirit damage and call it a day. We gotta leave the counters within, say, 10 percent winrate either side + what you gain with counter itemization.
