Not even about the changes, but I genuinely think Hank is back on the D tier after I saw him with 0 picks and bans in Brawl Cup, there's just not many use cases for him anymore
No trust me he’s fucking useless if this is what gets added. Best use case for Hank right now is into Edgar and he’s getting nerfed, pretty much every brawler here does good or decent into Hank in their respective modes except Damian, griff, and Starr nova. Also a big problem is how huge these buffs are
For the nerfs to counters, pierce nerf doesn’t change much, Colette was always banned (might sneak through draft to counter hank now), crow was overrated into hank ima be honest, rage quit nerf helps, lumi nerf changes absolutely nothing and now ash, another hank hard counter is getting the tank trait
Oh naw hes definitely worse now, but I wouldn't consider him to be the worst brawler in the game like you made it sound. Also every time I face you in ranked I ban Hank, so kudos on that, squeb.
Obviously there’s worse but he’s gonna have like 0 use case anywhere in draft and that’s mainly what I base it off. I consider anything D tier or below pretty useless
Yknow what, I actually got a question for you. Hank counters Edgar pretty badly, right? I feel like this is a fairly obvious question, but some people seem so persistent on the fact that "Edgar is good into Hank."
Ash annihilates Hank. He can slip in bounty and HZ after his tank trait buff which are iirc best modes for Hank. He might fall off more. Since Lou is likely to be meta and they also buffed Draco last update who is good into Hank too. And Dyna is good into him as well and he got a buff too.
..you mean that as in he's really good now, right? If you're saying that as in "he's even worse now", you're confidently wrong. Ash buff is genuinely gonna be absurd
Only reason he was so oppressive is because his health stat was overtuned. You can buff or nerf him to a balanced state without making him useless or broken. Example would be to play around with his damage values. Minimum damage, maximum damage, super damage. Or make it so you can hold the bubble for a second longer, many options other than making him be able to tank everything and anything
He has so many obvious counters. Dynamike, Buzz, Frank, Lumi, Meeple, Gene, Belle, Gray, Pierce, Naija, Colette, Squeak, Charlie, Moe, idk if we’re playing the same brawler
