Shaolin issue | Forums

[who_cares_lol]

So ive noticed that the shaolin can counter uncharged or fully charged warden vortex with a side dodge attack, without timing it, just dodge attacking as the vortex animation starts. Is this intended?

Yes. Your vortex was not intended to be something you rely on for kills. its as situational as the valks or conqs charge.
Shaolin are all dodge heavy heroes. They have trouble against solid tank players, and feints, because they require an almost flowing type of timing to get each move off. Use your warden feints into light and soft should bumps... and you will win 7 out of 10 engagements. Warden is SUPER effective right now.

Actually thats mostly what its used for. Wardens charged vortex allows a guarantee heavy witch most warden mains rely on to get and execution. You can not compare warden to valk or conq because they don't have a charged shoulder or shield bash that guarantees a heavy. Shaolin is already op as it is and it doesn't help when nothing really counters him.
