Id like to see him used more. He's interesting. I dont know about MagicMan's claim of top 5.. (Id love to hear him line out why he thinks that - no disrespect, would legit like to hear the case presented) but I think he's good.
This is from an observationist standpoint, I dont play FS and know VERY little about him, but when I see him played in higher level situations I always kinda cringe when he pops trait, because his trait doesnt do what people think it does. It doent really regen health, or buff his specials, or make anything launch, or make anything safe, etc. What it actually does is make the very next hit INSTANTLY AND AUTOMATICALLY cause clash. That's what his trait does.
I still dont see why clash resets traits the way it does.
