    To everyone complaining

    To all the people who are going crazy and can see ahead in the future, once the new season is out, if you were right about the reworks then you’ll keep hatin on it but if by any chance you find that it’s better than before how about posting treads saying “i was crying before i even tried the reworked lb”

    All we wanted was hyperarmor on his heavies, and a viable long arm and if god wills it maybe just ONE soft feint....is it really so hard to understand?

    I don't think he'll be too bad, he has more than he had. Personally, I never used block shove as much as a lot of people, I play a pretty aggressive LB so I'd rather attack or parry than wait for a block, so this rework seems pretty decent in my eyes. For me personally at least.

    What did he get? Tell me please.

    100ms faster lights, chain not interrupted on side light and some damage buffs and nerfs. Please don't say unblockable mix-up, because that thing is still trash. 900ms with a small feint window (even just adding that with a Hero like LB don't want to feint, I want to strike and break) and easily poked out, because there is no hyperarmour. Did I leave anything out?

    Even if you didn't use Shove on block, many people did and in higher tier this was a pretty major thing for LB, since you got to pull it off pretty frequently. Just the mentioned things don't compensate the shove aloine and even recalling, that he was completely left behind in general. Not just a compensation for the Block Shove

    Armor on shove, so you can push through an attack, get a free light and set up for the top heavy unblockable mix up game. His parry counters are still all there and his zone after parry is now unblockable and hyper armored, which is really good for ganks.

    Like I said in another thread, we'll have to wait and see how he is when he releases.

    What did I need armour for, when the shove was guaranteed after a heavy? Externally the chain Shove was hardly never interrupted (at this point I am not even sure, if he had also that Shove covered). He had armour on netral shove combined with armour on Impale and Long Arm. So get got a flat out nerf. Justified or not, there was no compensation.

    There is no unblockable "mix-up", since it is slow, most likely roll-away functional in all cases, short feinting window (you won't fool at lot of people with it) and most importantly you can poke him out with any lights due to NO HYPERARMOUR.

    His parry counters where also there before the rework and they didn't lift him from the trash.

    His parry Zone was already armoured and got a damage nerf from 25 to 22. Not quiet a boomer ...

    We'll have to see, all static heroes also got a guard stance buff. That could work in his favor as well. I'm not going to bash on the rebalance too much until I get my hands on it.

    Guys all i’m saying is to wait and give it a try once it’s out! I’m not a LB main but i played him for 30 reps across ps4 and xbox, one thing that i hated was that lack of offence, he didn’t get hyperarmor but he got something that it’s better than nothing
