I feel like there is a little bit of a misconception, so hopefully i can clear things up. when dashing you can maintain the shield so it keeps on regenerating every time you dash adding more comfort when diving enemies, why i think it could be controversial as to why it's a nerf is because selena's first skill was her only sustain skill and she'd still be left on little to no hp. the shield you gain from dashing is basically a downgrade although being able to keep it up consistently in late game you're basically going to have to pray that you somehow survive against burst enemies, the only enemies i think this shield is good against are dmg over time such as Yve. gord etc and the item glowing wand, my problem with this change is her survivability, obviously if you want MAX survivability you'd have to dash after your shield got broken/damaged, anyhow after hearing many of your opinions, iI dont think it's as bad as i made it sound, its still a subjective adjustment, but i think we can all agree that the removal of her first skill shield was just completely unnecessary. This is all MY opinion, anyone can interpret this as they please, and I'd love to listen what you guys think about this.

As a aggressive selena user who dives in turrents and between 4-5 enemies to kill backliners I just see a buff In late game you don't have to wait for enemy to break your shield ❤

HERE’S WHY THIS IS A BUFF (imo): 1. FLEXIBILITY previously you can only activate the shield if you use the first skill (which requires a target) vs now you can activate the shield even with no target around - imagine diving into the tower and suddenly the stun effect is gone so the enemy ran away, you cant activate the shield since no target to claw at and you have no shield to absorb the tower shots 😅 2. FREQUENCY selena’s combo resets her dash, hence the shield can be activated more frequently unlike her first skill - the way the new shield suits her combo = she dashes to the stunned enemy>gains shield and it absorbs the first few tower shots>shield gone>do her combo which should leave her with one last dash>dash out and gain a new shield>that last shield should block any tower shots that follow or enemy’s counter attack if he manages to survive the combo

just my opinion as a selena main, first skill shield is enough for my sustain, moonton could buff her on dmg or hp regen.

"Didn't know" she even had a shield at all. She just gets bursted so hard, I have to opt for a playstyle that involves just hitting Arrows and spamming Traps on top of the enemies Now, back to the topic -I see this as a rework. It's not a nerf, it's a rework, as they didn't just straight-up remove a mechanic, but rather moved it somewhere else -The foreswing will help the playstyle of becoming a pseudo-artillery even more. And I'm all for it -The jungle buff could mildly help her when playing Roaming, as she has a surprisingly fast jungle clear of 1:04 on both sides if executed properly, however neither Jungler or Roamer are good roles for her in higher ranks due to the meta encouraging taking objectives rather than just deal damage -The jungle buffs could help her reach pre-1 minute full clear without an extra camp, making her already fastest jungle clear even faster

Wait I don't see the issue though,,, they're not removing the ability to dash in a row within a short span, they're just adding a shield when you dash. I think the only reason Elgin was doing it slowly was to showcase the shield returning whenever she dashes, not that the shield has to disappear before she can dash

@Celestia325 2 ай бұрын

@@Kodukushi I still find that shield very insignificant because if you want max survivability you kinda have to wait a bit, honestly what is that 200-300 shield gonna do if it's not stackable, Ik making it stackable would be op but they can always reduce the magic power so people would be careful about which build they use for her.

@Kodukushi 2 ай бұрын

@@Celestia325 honestly I agree if its not stackable, but also it kinda feels safer to dive against mages now since you have a bit of cushion per dash, and more cushion when you're exiting the dive in case any attacks were still tracking you

its good if they kept some of the old scaling and the first skill now is basically kinda usless.. i don't think its worth it to use basic attack anymore just dash or something.. they need to add new effect for the abyssal form first skill.. like buff the shield from the second skill or make it give magical pen or power idk... thats my thoughts

yeah but you're forgetting that she gets this shield EVERY SINGLE TIME she dashes. Theres enough time between the first and fourth dash for her to have lost the shield entirely in a usual fight. This means that she will usually be able to get a 600 + 200%mp shield which is way higher.

1. i mean if they kept the skill 1 shield that is nice. skill 2 shield is useless since you are dashing quickly and the target is stunned. so they really can't attack you back. unless of course its in the tower or there is the enemy teammates. and if that's the case. just don't go in. keep eyes on the map and decide if going in the is best option. no point in again shielf with skill 2. as for skill 1, its necessary to get the shield. that's because you are already commiting to the fight. skill 2 is either hope in and out. skill 1 is like, let's freaking fight man. im here to going head to head with you. lol, also skill 1's shield allows many outplays. 2. Skill 1 foreswing: well that's good. i dont mind but since i use just skill 1 to check map. Combo with skill 2 and quick skill 1 is what i use often. so that's very unneccesary in my gameplay. as i often 3 or 4th finger map pointing and also aiming at the target. took me like 1 month to get used to it. lol but she's so much fun to play with high potential outplay and versitility. Just pop, skill 1 around the enemy path so they can be your "dash point" to rotate and attack the back line or just escape.

I agree, it's smaller, but the fact you can regenerate it up to four times consecutively is pretty good (probably two or three time more often than not, but that's still more shield than the single first skill). Just my opinion of course.

Why does ml keep making hard heroes "easier" for noobies. First lunox and now selena? Selena is literally imo one of the only balanced heroes in ml. She has good burst and mobility and a shield to counter the fact that she is squishy and has to dive in. Moving the shield to the dash is completely useless like you said. You'd have to wait in between each dash just to get the maximum benefits from the shield. Selena should be a fast hero, you go in and you come out,in no world should she have to wait between dashes. Ml fr be fixing things that weren't broken😢😢😢

Ummm or maybe just start the combo when the trap is ready to attack so you don’t have to wait for the stacks like elgin did? This is better now for fast and slow combos because you can do it more than one time I’ve been playing selena from when she released and its so easy to time your combo to make it so you can immediately use 4 dashes one after another without waiting by just waiting for the right timing for the trap

Um. It's weird that your argument is circling around selena's sustainability. She's assassin-mage. Not a fighter. It's correct that she'd be squishy. It's not wrong. Also I seems to never saw her first skill as sustainability tool. I just saw it as more dmg. After all, why you need to sustain as an assassin ? Assassin's job is kill/ambush, dip out, wait for the right moment to jump in again, kill, repeat. If you kill the dmg dealer, you don't need to worry about taking dmg.

@Celestia325 2 ай бұрын

If you compare her to most assassin's they have mechanics that could let them sustain or last a few more crucial seconds to hopefully turn the fight around such as Aamon, Helcurt. fanny, ling. Hayabusa etc don't get me wrong you're totally right Selena isn't a fighter but her mechanics that are supposed to help her survive feel very redundant compared to other assassins.
