I’m impressed and think whoever though up the slow down mechanic is a winner

They mentioned they'd cut it down by a increment of 5 I think
But I will say it’s still decent and he can do a bunch. Here’s my thoughts after playing with him a lot:
The dialed in is great. He feels like Hawkeye. Hopefully this mechanic can be used for new champs in the future.
Critical bleeds are pretty potent. And they last forever. I had 7 critical bleeds up and all I had to do was a couple of combos to melt the opponent.
Sp1. I’m not a big fan of what they did. After playing it, it’s a way to save yourself from pushing the opponent to an SP3. The suppression debuffs need to be like 15 seconds to make the change worthwhile. Even then.
The fragility debuffs are the best part of his new kit. They’re pretty potent - and if you have bleeds up after that the bleeds benefit too from fragility. Good job on that one.
Slow debuff is great. Duration isn’t long.
His heavy is short. Can’t chain in the corner with him. Be careful with that.
I’ll hit an SP2 and Sp1 and that’ll do it for most fights.
The sig ability really needs to be 200 to get the most damage out of him. Damage is good (not OP) with fragility up too but the physical resistance lowering needs to happen as high of a sig as you can.
One more thing for fragility. It gets around bleed immune champs (this without using the Tigra synergy). I destroyed a Luke Cage using just SP2’s. That’s a huge win.
With Nick Fury on the team you lose the poison if you’re running suicides. That’s a fantastic synergy.
Overall I like him. Not the best champ but he feels like Hawkeye. No powers - just using trick arrows and the slow mechanic. He’s fun and has some uses. Good job making him better overall.
