Like the last two seasons, I will be giving initial feedback on the balancing of this season’s heroes after the update drops. However I’ve been noticing that the last two season’s heroes seem to be doing a bit better than my initial impression, meaning maybe it was an overreaction on my part to expect better disk stats and more damage from some of them. It’s also fine if control heroes do less damage than damage heroes, as that’s not their role and debuffs become more relevant with less absurd damage and less need for crazy defense to deal with it.
The reason I’m making this post is that, even after weeks of testing, there are two characters that I think could use further changes.
One of them is Davy Jones. I’ve considered putting him in the same category as other controls - his damage being less good than damage heroes because it’s not his role - but for him specifically I don’t think it’s fair as he barely has any control aspects in his kit, being supposedly a curse hero but nearly unable to apply curse at all.
I originally thought he just needs a bit more damage, but now I think his 4th patch needs to be changed to Corrupted Dose. It makes it easier for him to trigger debuff-related effects like the armor debilitation patch, and adds the damage from the talent on top of that. And it turns him into an actually reliable curse hero.
The other one is Kim Possible. Statistically she’s fine, I just think this skill:
and this effect:
really need to be changed, as they’ve done literally nothing for her for a long time. She doesn’t need to get extremely powerful effects to replace these, but I don’t think it’s fair she essentially only has 3 and a half skills.
