To my knowledge, the shaman changes are not coming at the expense of other hero balancing changes. There has been a huge amount of feedback on the shaman, and the bulk of it did focus on her being extremely powerful. We definitely don't want to overnerf her, but the team is opting to make changes and then continue to keep an eye on the situation.
This isn't an official source by any means, but the tier list linked on r/competitiveforhonor mentions that "everything in her moveset is viable" - and as you know, she has a large moveset. On Warrior's Den, Roman basically said that she was intended to be pretty good at everything, but not this good.
Hope that explains the situation somewhat!
That's just how blatantly obvious it is that Shaman is OP.Originally Posted by guest-4OaoTZlL Go to original post

You keep telling others to grow and i think you're the one that needs growing up. You're wining about shaman on every post made. It's sad that the moment you get wrecked by a new hero you sit and cry and point fingers to nerfs. Sit down, relax and ssip on a coolaid instead of keep on saying "that'snot going to work" Leap is dogable, her unblockable can be parried? Her light bleed thing can be blocked. People still have problems with PK's and their light spams that are ridiculous and you waaah waaaah about the shaman? Take you're head out out of the sand. Played against so many of them and it seems you just need to know how to handle them, They get out of steam rather quick.
