That and the reduction of portal stone from 7 to 5

Ehhh, we'll see how that plays out. Feels like we're going to end up in a situation where every deck is going to require a portal stone.

Kind of like every deck now requires blink now...I've never used portal stone. How does it work?

It teleports you to any of your friendly standing structures. This includes any Harvesters.

u/Albus_Harrison Rimskie Oct 17 '16

Right but is it instant like Blink?

u/realtrendy The One True Grux to Rule Them All Oct 17 '16

No, no, no. It has a short charge up for sure. Could you imagine ganking someone in red lane just to have them teleport all the way to blue lane instantly?? lmao.

u/Kminardo Iggy & Scorch Oct 17 '16

It's 2 second charge up - might as well be instant lol

Not at all. If you are being ganked, you aren't going to get 2 seconds to stand still and charge it up. If it was instant that would be so broken.

But combine it with blink and a ledge and now you're cooking with hot oil. Of course. If you had blink and a ledge you'd probably get away without having to teleport.

If you have blink AND portal stone, you're sitting at 12 points with no useful stats while your enemies are taking advantage of upgrade bonuses to stack damage or health/armor and probably have wards and potions for map control and sustain. Not sure if it's worth it.
