Falcon Mini Buff

Jake303AoS · February 27

I love Falcon, but I think we can all agree he lacks some damage, outside of heavy evade matchups. If they changed his ability so that he got the cruelties everytime he prevented ANY ability due to AAR, instead of just evades, then he would be a lot more fun in so many more fights. Wishful thinking, but that would be sweet.

His damage is fine. My r5 clears Photons, Things, etc in AW perfectly fine

I have never once used him to counter an evade matchup and he still destroys stuff

You really ought to at least once for funsies. My r5 is sig 200 so when lock on is on and evades are failing left and right the big yellow numbers are beautiful and often

Well I didn't say he was a noodle, and I agree he does fine against small/medium health pools. But it's just flat damage, no ramp outside of evade matchups, pretty weak specials.. Take him against any large health pool and it's just a bit repetitive and boring. My point here was how much more fun he'd be if he had his ramp in more fights.

He's already been buffed.

Well some champions are meant to excel at short to medium length fights while others shine in longer ones. Falcon targets specific match-ups and he deals with them very well. There's nothing wrong with having specialized champions like that

As others have said Falcon is meant to tackle those Evade and annoying defensive abilities matchups. He's a specialist

As a matter of fact, falcon is receiving a mini nerf since Night crawlers buff won't allow non-techs to reduce his evade ability accuracy.

BW relic works fine with lock on, his utility makes up for it

So will there be compensation?

Y'all are hilarious. Hey, it would be cool if this champ's utility was applied to a few more matchups so he'd be a little stronger and more fun to play, NO!! DISAGREE!! 🤣

Yeah, dude. It’s almost like some people value game balance over just having additional unga bunga options

Falcon is one of those champs that isn't the best at punching up his rank in terms of damage, so you might be using a low ranked falcon against matchups where he doesn't ramp up his passives

I don't believe you actually think this would affect game balance in any way lol. At least I hope you don't believe that..

I have r2 7* duped, gonna r3 him soon. As I mentioned, I love him, use him all the time. Was just thinking he'd be more fun in more matchups if he gained his passives by preventing any ability with his AAR. So for example, each time Modok auto blocked, or each time he prevented a bleed or poison on biohazard node, etc.. Wouldn't make him OP or anything like that, just a bit more fun across more of the game. Apparently this is a terrible suggestion tho 🤣

Just imagine implementing your solution against thing or korg, it makes him too op

Falcon isn’t really meant for Bgs outside of like evade or thing matchups
