Nevermore the Shadow Fiend collects souls for a living and is feared throughout the land. So how come when I collect Pokemon cards, people stuff me in lockers and take my lunch money?

this applies to 60% of the characters in the game winter wyvern, jakiro, phoenix, arck warden ... in lore jakiro is an extremely powerful dragon of a race of extreme power son of aeroph (ww) WW is literally the oldest dragon in the game (alive) she should be knowledgeable and extremely experienced in combat STILL BEING DESCRIBED AS A DESTROYER OF CITIES phoenix literally has the power of the sun and arck warden is literally a universal entity with the power of a god they are all supports even if in lore they are stronger than the current goals of the game as ax, PA or legion commander

@OmnifyMyAss 5 жыл бұрын

It's a minor touch but in DotA your passive was affecting buildings without a damn 'talent' and it was a huge shift of playstyle, you either max up your raizes and force your opponent out of the lane or you gather as 5 early to get a pair of rax with maxed passive. Don't know if it's been brought up in your vids, but ursa's passive was working on buildings at some point and thus the most humiliating thing to do was to destroy enemy fountain thus leaving them no regen and 0 defense upon respawn

I was thinking you'd talk about Swain for League. But I didn't know when the rework released because he has 2 abilities that resemble SF: Ravenous Flock's Soul Collection, and his ult requires souls to cast the first and the second part where he crushes all the soul fragments he has collected to cast Demon Flare which the damage scales with the amount of souls used and his Ability Power. And Beatrice's new aesthetic demom form is that which is bathed in Demonic Shadows when ever Swain casts Demonic Ascension (his ult)
