My girl Io became a goddess, couldn't be more happy...meanwhile my boy Corvus is still poking at his demon stone to do something. (Still really like the change so Luna is always useful)
All Corvus needs is a ult buff/rework and maybe a slight damage increase if they buffed his heals more he would be an off support healing the same or more than a main support you guys don’t know much about game balance
@@zacharydickinson7280 doesn’t need a buff to his dmg, it’s good enough as is. His ult does need something more to it, but all I can think of is maybe letting it also heal teammates. But as a Corvus main, I can tell you that taking 1 second off his heal would make him feel so much better. After that, maybe you can nerf his healing a bit if that 1 second off makes him really strong.
The Ying buffs I feel like were needed as Caut has been embeded universally into the game as Anti-Healing, and as a pure healing support with no other utility other than clone blocking it made sense for Ying to have something in the kit that ignored anti-healing. Her able to use a 3rd clone now however has made it that you need to change your item choices with Ying, since pre-patch you rush Morale Boost 3 to get maximum ult charge as Chronos 3 only decreases your shatter heal spam from 1.5s to 1.2s and you can use 2 clones for their entire duration with the right cards, so I feel like Chronos is completely useless for Ying imo. But with a 3rd clone you need Chronos 3 to maximise the duration of having 3 clones on the field, so its either you choose to rush morale for more frequent ults or rush Chronos to maximise clone useage.
The removal of mid-air inaccuracy across the board a few patches ago also helps Ying a lot too. She doesn't have the most utility but if you have good aim her damage is alright.
She’s going to be one of the best supports in the game because instead of fixing balances they just buff champs constantly. Buffing weak people is not the recipe for a balanced game.
And more damage lol, the only thing vora has is sustain which is negated in late game. Also her ult is shit while you can solo ult with VII and get constant kills.
I’m so happy IO got a buff. She was my first healer main. Almost 100lvl with her and I eventually benched her for Lilith or Furia bc back then, the devs not only did they removed Luna counting as an entity that could capture point but nerfing her to the point she would get destroyed on the point (on cooldown). Then you would have to choose from either healing Luna or your teammate. Luna is such an essential part of her kit, them solidifying their bond for them to be able to support each other (while keeping Luna still feel like an entity) is exactly what she needed to be competitive. I’m excited.
These buffs are very good, but is not gonna change much bad players. We need better tutorials, cuz I hate trying to peacefully explain smth, to get insulted back.
I wanted to point out as an Io main whose played her on console and PC, Io can be played more actively like other supports and doesnt need to be healing constantly. If you assess the situation you can determine if healing or doing damage would be better. You can also use Luna to heal on point while you take a more aggressive stance, and while this does put Luna in danger, you just need to be wary of her health. Io is also one of the best duelist champions with Luna, and if you use cards to redeploy her faster you can reposition Luna frequently to heal on point if you need to be mote aggressive, heal yourself if you need more sustain, or help you duel if you think you can secure a kill. Using Luna as a healing station purely for Io removes a lot of potential from her and Luna essentially becomes a healing bot that acts as a flank deterrent, but with redeploy cards you can bring her back to you when necessary. When you have Luna upfront she can heal people on point, as well as help dish out damage and stun (which is actually really good against Khan, Fernando, flanks, Healers who need to be closer in range like Rei). I actually enjoy Io because she feels so flexible. Even after Luna got hard nerfed, she still had loads of utility (i do wish her stun had lower cooldowns), but she is one of the few supports who can freely heal that isnt tied to a cooldown and has good duel potential while also doing decent poke damage due to her high range. She can be evasive with her mobility or aggressive and Luna helps make up for her weaknesses. Edit: Another thing id like to point out is while many might think Io's burst is bad, it has a lot of execution potential if you can aim it right, can do big burst on flanks, and force people off an objective or off the map which also helps Io's aggressive/Defensive playstyles.
This video shows Io's updates No, it really does. No. I'm serious, it's not only about a skillful (although toxic) VII player owning Andrew for 20 minutes, I swear
Definitely need to use Luna as a flank support now. Adding lvl 2 redeploy cooldownto my builds and just make Luna sit in the enemy line and then back to safety. Gotta maximize Luna' damage with life link now that you can heal her easier
Is the patch live? Or is this pts footage Edit. Nvm I read the title 😢 Edit 2. I'm XxcyruspyrusxX the pip u fought the other day btw. Love ur stuff. And ur bk is monstrous
In regards to using Luna for self sustain, it depends on your nap awareness. If you know you're about to get flanked, withdraw Luna and use her to body block / sustain / stun. Io is unique in that trying to duel a good one is a pain in the ass. Luna for sustain is also good if the enemy team is poking you out; can't heal the team if you're dead after all.
I love when I play Evie or Meave only to get low on health and properly retreat to safety only for a VII to chase me down from the opposite side of the map to finish me off, then jump back to the other side of the map to avoid my teammates I retreated to for safety.
Seems like Andrew was keeping luna to himself. He could probably shoot more arrows if luna was healing allies. This patch makes me think ill deploy her further from me while still sustaining the both of us
Was saying this at the beginning of people saying VII is useless now. You just changed weapon types. From burst to automatic and it will be easier because you have more dps than before. VII will be bs until they remove cool-down cards.
vll should just have 1 hook, and the talent that let him grab people should give him as econd hook but with a small cd increase (also the automatic dmg is just way too high)
@@awoooga5857 i do think that the card change should have been a internal cd like how imani cards has, but my talent idea was before this balance changes(i think i commented it on the andrew video about vll)
first, 7 was still bugged in the PTS where his range was not actually changed.. reported it. "I guess we will test Life Link even though I think Goddess’ Blessing will be the new Mata" me "no it won't. if Life Link changes go the way it does, it will be" here is why.... later on you stated why. a support that stay alive means more supporting the team. Life Link make IO nearly unkillable. in fact, even with max Anti-healing, IO with her team working close together will heal for 60 per second and that is if she is getting shot. I could not do real testing on it but from how I read it, "When Io or Luna heals an ally other than each other, they also heal the other at 50% effectiveness" it is not base on the healing that is being down but the healing that would have been done without anti-healing. in other words 150*4 then add on another 300 because it does not take into io being in the range. that is 900 per second if she is not getting shot and 90 per second if she is. so it is a better Sacrifice. what is better than having a second life? being unkillable in the first life. as I said before, self sustain is always better then rejuv because it need someone else to get any benefits. if they die, it is useless.
Eliminate the card that reduces the CD of VII's hooks up to 2.5 seconds and with that you will control that VII flies with less constancy for those experienced and talented players like Weiro,who can leave and enter from one zone to another, at least they will have to wait for the CDs and will not bounce from zone to zone. For me, it would be great if that card had a Rework, since it is a card that I never liked and people don't stop using it, it's bad habit. With this change VII will only be able to use the hook twice and will have to wait for the corresponding CD to have them again, then you will stop seeing what happened to you with io.
This map is quite drab after the visual changes, the older maps at least felt like breathing fresh air which is more than I can say about this new look. Maybe just put the old one back in queues and foget about this mistake...
vii keeps getting nerfed too hard before yall hate reply, hear me out his main playstyle is still too op, while the nerfs are ruining his other playstyles hes becoming a brainless one trick pony and needs a FULL rework one grapple with displace again but longer cooldown, change him to be a damage, two dodge rolls with weaker distance, and change a LOT of cards
Honestly Andrew being back lined, hyper focused, & harassed… that’s how most average players feel against pros in pubs. And you’re not even dealing with it that bad either. So karma isn’t as deadly for you as she should be with the thousands of games you’ve terrorized for people over the years. Lol
@@name7488 you clearly justify being a bully by saying it’s just a game. Well guess what, it’s not just a game, it’s an online social community and an entire economy. So yes bullying people is real in video games. Also, as a support main, I can tell you that NO, all of my games do not consist of being hyper focused, bullied, harassed, & emoted on. Only people who lack conscience play like that. I keep in mind that there are actual humans behind the screen. And when I play a flank, no I never bully focus anyone who is clearly at a severe disadvantage to me or who is clearly not as good as me, because I have a conscience. It’s just not fun for me to stomp on anyone, & if it is for you, that says something about your character.
Being back lined is fine. Being prioritized because I'm the support is fine. That's how the game works. Being spawn camped with a solo ult then emoted on multiple times is harassment. Big difference. I don't do that crap because it's toxic.
@@AndrewChicken I see for the most part you don’t go out of your way to bully anyone. However, being a controller player who has basically reached their skill cap, I can tell you, a pro in broken matchmaking pubs, against little old me, feels so bad. At the end of the day I like to heal and try to make people have decent games. I feel the majority of people want to be jerks in Paladins and it sucks :/
I don’t care how toxic VII is, Kasumi’s auto aim primary fire will forever be lightyears worse than anything any team shooter has and will ever implement.

@@jemmascott5559reduce the cooldown of his heal from 4 to 3.
Do you guys know what an off support is
All Corvus needs is a ult buff/rework and maybe a slight damage increase if they buffed his heals more he would be an off support healing the same or more than a main support you guys don’t know much about game balance

Tbh I feel like people just forget about Bulldozer 😅
The funny thing is the way Andrew feels about Vii is the way most people feel about Evie

And more damage lol, the only thing vora has is sustain which is negated in late game. Also her ult is shit while you can solo ult with VII and get constant kills.
Can't believe I can play both revive and heal talent at the same time!
