How does everyone feel about Shyvana's Ult?
Personally, I find
's ult really clunky. It has some displacement, it can serve as a gapcloser and an escape, and it enhances her regular abilities; however, it doesn't feel super impactful to me. The flight part can be smashed away by a Jayce E, a Lee R...you're telling me a freakin dragon in flight, with all of their weight and momentum, gets knocked away by a puny hammer? I mean good for Lee and Jayce to have the strength for that, but excuse me if I call bullshit. And, after your flight, you land, and...nothing. You just touch down like a tepid little bird.
On top of the active part of the ult being underwhelming, while dragon form is strictly better than regular form, it still feels like you're playing regular
. Sure, you get to leave a burnout trail, but that doesn't really help her playstyle, to have her become a temporary, lamer Singed. Sure, you shoot three shots of fire instead of one, but at that range I hope you don't miss with one anyway. Look at
, how much stronger he feels when his ult's up and he's transformed into a giant demon bird. Look at
, how much scarier he gets. Valor even packs a whallop that
can't (though that's fairly situational).
just doesn't change that much.
Can we possibly make her feel a little less lame? Maybe make her untargetable during flight, maybe add an aoe knockup to the ult landing? Or maybe change up her ulted E so she breathes some real, sustained fire (vel'koz laser with fire, anyone? Definitely more thematic than practical but TELL ME THAT WOULDN'T BE AWESOME)? I dunno. I know she's not BAD right now, but she does feel less dragon-y than I'd like, and I think changing up her abilities a bit wouldn't be such a bad idea.
Thoughts? Comments? Like any of these suggestions? Got any of your own?
