    Gladiator changes

    So Gladiator is fun and a very well balanced hero that keeps you on your "toes" (toes stab pun). Although I feel the reflex guard is way too short for the amount of time he blocks. Shaman, Peacekeeper, and Orochi all have a 5 sec guard (roughly), but Gladiator has what feels like is a 3 sec guard which at some moments the guard stops at the wrong time and even if I deflect, parry, and dodge. There is no permanent way around getting hit when I cant block for 5 secs and have 1/4 of my health gone too (Assassin mains know this pain). This is really the only thing that can improve him even further and can welcome new players to playing him as it is stated that he is "Assassin | Easy" (From what it says on the Hero selection).

    As a Glad main, I wholeheartedly agree. Sometimes I take damage JUST because the reflex didn't stay up long enough to block a slow heavy even though I had my guard ready...

    One of his biggest downsides tbh.

    I agree they should increase it m, but nerf his stamina.
