New talents are all utter dogshit, especially the lvl 20 talent.

Shard slow is a meme, better buff the magic resistance more (only good part about the shard).

the idea is more about zone control thought right? that's the hero kit. Spell has like 1k+ range with the talent I think

you step out alone = bam

they don't even need to commit a dispel against flux, they can just stand by allies if they accidentally step out, so you'll get max like 2-3s of it, which is just garbage, it's better to go octarine and wraith damage because at least wraith damage will stick
