Sandman Root also Locking SP3

I’m still very salty because of the root nerfs to Kraven and Zemo, so how about we stay consistent this time @Kabam Miike ? Tell the team to fix Sandman’s root since he’s special locking 3 bars with his.
Since you didn’t create a proper description for root, you have to atleast make it consistent for all the root champions. Wouldn’t you agree, @SlayerOfGods ?

Whenever I see someone tag a YouTuber it always makes me roll my eyes and cringe. It’s like they are saying “notice me I am a cook person maybe you’ll shot me out in your next video and I’ll be famous” Wouldn’t you agree @RichTheMan ?

I have 6 star kraven and I'm curious. What was his root before and what was his nerf

I’m not tagging him randomly. I want him to play HR manager again or actually contribute to the thread this time.

Exactly i mean if there's someone who makes decisions and tells Kabam what to do it's the content creators that Kabam allows into their exclusive program. Isn't that right @Karatemike415 ?

If this wasn't clear. This is a joke

@ahmynuts Most of us agree and get what you are saying. Isn't that right @Swedeah

It’s ok, I should have not tagged him, it was out of spite.

Semi-unrelated but Groot & his kingly variant should be immune

Magrailothos

I disagree with Josh - Groot and King Groot should both be extra-vulnerable to Root.

I'm sure @Seatin would agree... 😉

JLordVileJ

Juggernaut entire abilities is about being an unstoppable force, I think he should be root immune. Wouldnt you agree @BrianGrant

Can't have coffee these days without seeing forum users diverting a post from it's original intention.

JLordVileJ

Forums is all about diverting from the og intention @captain_rogers. I bet this website was originally used to shop for sofas

I won't be surprised if that was true

Fit_Fun9329

@danielmath what’s your take on that

Pikolu

Have you tried just being more polite? I'm sure if you were less aggressive, then people would actually try taking the time to listen.

notice me I am a cook person @RichTheMan ?

I used to be a cook person

All #flying should be root immune.

Drago_von_Drago

Setting aside the OP’s overly aggressive nature, he’s got a point.

The whole Kraven/Zemo “root fix” situation was supposed to be a fix to the root mechanic that allowed the defender to throw and SP3 while rooted. That was not the case before the fix and allowed for the “Zemo lock”. The devs “fixed” root to address this and went as far as issuing rank down tickets because of the negative impact of Kraven.

Pre root fix, it was a full special lock.

Post root fix, it’s just an SP1/2 lock. Defenders can still throw an SP3 while rooted. Or so we were told.

So why is Sandman’s root still inflicting a full Sp1/2/3 lock right now when it should just be a Sp1/2 lock per how root was supposed to be fixed to work?

Kraven today:

Sandman today:

Drago_von_Drago

After more playing with it, I wonder if they fixed the root debuff but not the root passive? Can someone test with Spidey Supreme and see if his passive root is a full SP1/2/3 lock?

BigBlueOx

I wonder if it’s because Sandman’s root will expire based on a set number of hits so he lacks the ability to indefinitely special lock like Zemo and Kraven had

All #flying should be root immune.

Love this idea. Not sure why that isn’t a counter or immunity to it.

Also… says this many moons ago. Groot should root. Rhyming schemes demand it.

SpideyFunko

on the topic, Quake could always be updated to have root in her kit as well

wouldn’t you agree @Lagacy?

Careful! I've found that telling them this encourages them to tag you in a future forum post with a ton of rudeness - even though they insist they aren't being rude at all, and that you simply misread the tone!

Wouldn't you agree, @SecondSkriller?

Trust me, I’m trying. All the frustration that I don’t put out in real life makes its way on the internet. It’s better that way. Also, do listen to my findings sometimes, regardless of the behavior, and I’ll try to improve my behavior 🫶

I think you can still get pinned down by Zemo’s glue if you’re getting hit by his sp2 grenade while flying, so it’s kinda weird, I feel like root isn’t that strong of a mechanic to require an immunity maybe idk

Drago_von_Drago

It doesn’t look like it’s an issue with passive vs debuff. Spidey Supreme’s passive root is only an Sp1/2 lock. Something is just different with Sandman’s root that is applying the Sp1/2/3 lock vs just the Sp1/2 lock.
