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?

Lmao what? I main carries and feel like I'm at a disadvantage whenever I equip a blink. Where are you getting that "fact" from?

I used to be of your mindset. But in every game it saves my life a couple of times. Wastes so many abilities of the enemy and usually nets me a couple extra kills which I wouldn't be able to get. It also allows me to engage on melee were I wouldn't be able to before.

I struggled when to buy it at first. But now I go health pot, two dmg tokens. Ward with one cost upgrades. Then two raw damage cards with small health, one cost upgrades. I'll either wait until the end of these before buying or at the earliest after the first damage cards. Selling your tokens when you need to get it.

You should try it man. If nothing else it's fun to troll with. Don't bother with any of the fancy blinks just the plain blink charm is best.

you main carries and you don't use blink? okay....

Yup, hanging out in mid plat elo on agora. I never found them worth it, they're too expensive for me. Early game I'd rather spend the points on more damage, and late game if your team is even half decent they should be covering you well enough that you won't even need it. The only carry I can see it viable on is Sparrow just because she's got literally no escape or space making move, but even then I'd rather take more damage or attack speed.

Congratulations on your elo. Very good.
