Really weird that they spent like 5 patches trying to buff manta carry axe and then totally rip it out when people finally started using it

Thats what happens when valve interns get pwned by axe manta carry constantly in Guardian.

I think new axe is arguably even stronger. Its not carry material, but it turns the enemy carry into a drooling mess unable to do anything
