i wanna see how powerful this hindered debuff is, cuz that changes how over or underpowered the ult and molly are

The dash is a single use per round, don't forget. I thought it was a broken ability too until I realized that, and the "dismiss" ability is more like a weaker Phoenix ult where it's got a specific spot she returns to when pressed. Neon run+slide is still the more annoying ability imo if we're talking about stupid move abilities, I ain't saying she's not going to be OP but I'd rather talk about the new debuff riot added to her, hindered. Like the only difference between this new debuff and Stunned is that it doesn't give you a drunken screen and also makes you fall slower it looks like? and also lasts so damn long. She's an initiator duelist hybrid, that ult is absurd for retakes and attacking site

True I think what makes Waylay and neon different are the movement. Ain't gonna lie I'm kinda annoyed at Slide+ shoot shit.

Isn't jett dash also single use per round? either way with everything else in this kit you probably won't need to execute more than once anyway

the dismiss looks faster than running speed, and if you've ever tried chasing a clove ult you know it doesn't make sense to chase it if the rewind spot is too far away.

that alone would make her broken in my eyes, but she also has a sorta-stun? base ability and an execute ult?

Yes it's single use but even if you frag you don't get it back like Jett (her dash is a buyable), so she won't be zipping across t spawn to ct spawn like neon can or dash around sites and what not like Jett if she gets kills, the only thing you get back is the phoenix ult like thing, which imo isn't a good ability outside of entry on offense, or retake on defense, or any scenarios where close range gunfight scenarios happen. She's definitely leaning more towards Yoru in terms of shining with teammates and their util

That's not the issue.

If she gets a kill on site after dashing she doesn't need another one--that's site executed.

Jett dash after getting 2 kills is virtually useless--I don't think that makes Jett better or even remotely on par.

The fact that she can entry risk free is the reason I think she's OP

for it to be risk free you have to use your entire kit and even then it's not 100% safe, I'm not convinced she will see much use in pro play (at least at the beginning) because she doesn't fit the meta that well

Being able to use your entire kit to get site every round makes every other team have to play flood and retake.

It's going to make sentinels obsolete

She does indeed make anchoring horrible and forces you to play retake, but it's something that you can already do without her. She might be good on Haven for this particular reason but I don't think it's enough rn. Unless every team becomes PRX and ends their attack rounds in 30 seconds

Her entry fragging power is not risk-free at all, if anything if we're talking about who has an easier time contesting space in a site, it's still going to be Jett with her dash+smoke cover and stall long enough until her teammates can make it through to trade her if she dies. If there's 2 (or even just 1 really) players on a site and Waylay dashes in, the more likely scenario that happens is that either she dies because she's completely exposed, or she goes back to her phoenix anchor thing without getting a pick (any damage she takes will stay so that's also a risk for a re-entry), because she's still completely visible to the enemies, unless you hit someone with her hindering ability otherwise that is still going to be a 50/50 gunfight. She definitely has her defined weaknesses even with her strong abilities, and like I mentioned before, once you take site, she's basically completely left with almost nothing in the post-plant if you're not thirsting for kills or if enemies are close and are flooding. Her signature ability isn't really made for that, but it does have the potential to bait ults like a raze rocket or bait for your team, similar to tp agents like yoru and chamber in that regard.

"absurd for retakes and attacking site"

I don't think moving slower is gonna change much to the point of being "absurd"

#16

actually being slowed completely fucks the anchor because you need to move a lot when anchoring to avoid utility. Also anchoring w omen becomes more difficult because of the time to equip stuff being so important

On it's own, no (it also slows gun fire rate heavily), but who retakes/attacks sites with a single ult? Of course that's going to be paired with util, her ult is very similar to how breach ult works for the enemy, and this is a duelist we're talking about here

Btw I remember you telling me that you are Yoru main? I wanna let you know that Yoru might be the truth (until new duelist comes out). I've been locking Yoru for a month straight now, 62% winrate.

no complaining, just be thankful we have 1 month to prepare
it doesnt seem all that good anyways, since that dismiss thing can be easily countered and you can die
dash is just like a worse jett dash, no reason to freak out
the stun ability thing just dodge it like a neon stun and same with the ult

I dont think she will be too OP at best she will be meta. Honestly tejo looked much more broken than her

Seems very balanced considering the Hinder effect doesn't seem good at all. It's probably the worst effect in the game. Fire rate and movement slow barely does anything to prevent someone from killing you

Idk bout that cause the show match kinda proved it’s a good util

It’s a fixed system by now everyone should know. Release new broken agent > meta shift > everyone forced to play for the season or 2 > nerfed next season or till next agent arrives. This is riots method of making competitive play fresh and interesting and they realised it’s working
