I definitely understand what you're saying and don't think you're wrong, buuut I've actually kind of been enjoying the one-off meta. After years of ridiculous roamers like those times with Warp, Fist of Havoc, and Glacial Quake; it's felt kind of refreshing for me personally Beyond that, with the mentions of Behemoth, I feel the middling Super is almost([i]almost[/i]) justified by the extremely versatile neutral game builds. I've been wanting to get more into Behemoth ever since I saw it can kill Bubbles and Wells with your basic abilities. I just haven't been able to get the armor together lol

It shouldn't really matter how powerful they are (within reason) if you're only going to see one Striker or Spectral per game vs. up to three Bubbles/Wells with all of their associated buffs/benefits.

Behemoth's neutral game kit is pretty useless against Wells now that they're completely immune to the effects of Stasis (so you can't freeze them out of it), and the only way I can see you possibly countering a Bubble is to YOLO Howl of the Storm slide-freeze into it and pray to God they actually get frozen. Even then, its neutral game is nowhere near what it used to be after the latest round of Stasis nerfs that especially hit Behemoth hard when its kit was all about making and shattering Stasis crystals.

And like you said, it could be stronger within reason. Just don't make me fight 60 second FoH again lol [quote]Can I ask where you saw this? I'd like to try this build.

From my tests, the best way to kill a Bubble is to equip Antaeus, slide in, use Howl of the Storm to freeze anyone in there, pop your Barricade so they can't hit you, then throw a Glacier Grenade at the Barricade so it instantly detonates all the crystals. It's pretty consistent if you can lock the rotation down Wells are actually way easier, but your loadout is less versatile. Equip Dead Messenger, throw a Glacier at the Well, shoot Dead Messenger at the Glacier in a way where it will detonate all the Crystals. It'll kill anyone inside the Well Both strats can be avoided, but most people aren't privy to it, so it'll likely work at least once per match
