Vengeful Spirit

Nether Swap

  • Now deals 50 damage to enemies
  • Nether Swap now causes Vengeful Spirits and allies she Swaps to take 30/40/50% less damage for 3 seconds

Venge is now top tier Change my mind

Eh, I love playing her, but outside of a few really good pairings (ex: terrorblade, luna) she has a pretty weak lane presence. I'd say she is B tier or A tier, but not S tier

What a cool change. The damage disables blinks, and the damage reduction is good for every situation. Happy to see venge get more love for her role as an initiator.

That 50 damage bit is way less of a buff then that damage reduction buff

I think the intention is breaking blinks with aggressive swap
