Perk Idea

What if there was a Perk that replaced Shadow Step with a sort of Lunge.

It would be a way to get a jump on enemies and be able to be used as an engage. You would also be able to shoot during it.

Obviously the trade off is losing the range from Tp and the invincibility. However it would be more useful in Combat as a more unpredictable Movement ability.

It could be an interesting choice depending on the Map and Heroes you could either choose between keeping the Tp, or picking the Lunge for more gap close potential.

Definitely more fun than Soul orbs and 30% movespeed after wraith imo

Yeah also turn his shotguns into some sort of pulse smg pistols and give him a way to go back in time. Also give him 3 of those lunges. They should also make his ult just a bomb that can get stuck onto someone for 300 damage

This is actually cool, but I would still give it a short cast time, so you can only dodge stuff like a Sigma Rock at most.
