    My Shinobi Experience in Tournament

    Seriously, in light of what other characters can do, there is no reason not to buff his hp up to 120 like all the other classes (beside Centurion).

    Something needs to be done, it's sad at the moment how weak the Shinobi is.

    Yeah shinobi does suck pretty hard. His moveset is not good. If you can do well with shinobi, then you can do better with everyone else unfortunately. I think you are better off just picking up cent or PK, Glad or any others.

    If you are doing the tournament trying to get a shinobi ornament, don't use shinobi because you can use anyone else and get the same RNG chance to unlock his ornament as far as I'm aware. May aswell use a good hero if that's what your going for.

    I wouldn't say buff it to 120, but I agree that a buff would be a nice change for shinobi players. I rarely run into a really skilled shin player anymore and the ones I do run into are too easy to kill, three hits and done, onto the next guy.

    120 hp is exactly what he needs no less. its the standard assasin hp. just remember that any kind of ranged attack will drop shinobi to the floor. he is the only characater whos moveset is a liability for himself.

    also dont forget gladiator got the 120 hp even though this guy runs out with his chest exposed.

    That's transition from Shinobi to Gladiator makes me wonder about the direction they take with the assassin class as a whole.

    We've previously brought up suggestions for hp buffs to Shinobi and the team have it under consideration as they do hero balance stuff. I'll bring it up once more under light of the tournament, but it is definitely something we've heard previously.

    Guys, acutally don't forget - you need to fight those heroes as well.
    So you need to think about Balance not pure buffs.

    120 would be to much, but let it happen, you people see it if it happens, and after that you wish it to be less ^^

    I think Shinobi needs an HP buff, he also needs a way to drain his opponents stamina with his grabNstab. They should also remove the part where his own attacks cause him to fall over if the enemy counters them.

    And then he will ALMOST be as strong as centurion.

    Why? So he can just safely throw ranged attacks the entire time?

    I agree but I think he needs a moveset buff the most. It's all just to predictable and easily punishable.
