Resident Cynic
I don't even know what this variation is supposed to do anymore. It's design feels very confused: this variation was branded as "ultra-defensive", but our opponents tend to have every advantage when we use our variation specific tools that are defensive. What's worse is NRS tried to buff his offense to compensate for his under performance and made it's purpose even more puzzling.
Is there any reason NRS thought allowing us to use aura to detonate Frost Burst/Bomb would be better off than just treating us the same as Blood God defense totem? Why speed up EX Aura if the damage gains are marginal and we only get dividends off of F4 (50/50)? Why completely ignore the faults involving the Ice Parry?
What buffs should we have received in the most recent patch? What justification can be made about Subby's damage scaling penalty involving frost ball and aura? Why is his ice mask the only redeeming aspect of this variation? Will they ever fix his Ice Cubed brutality? Are Subby mains doomed to play Grandmaster forever?
