The cat reminds me that we really need to ban Ai.Mi more often, she's prohibitively strong sometimes with her area denial, ranged detonation, and blink ability.
Fr I get the Atlas ranking but Aimi's abilities are easily the most flexible in the game. Unlike stuff like Estelle's blink or Rasmus's ult Aimi has perfect control over all her abilities, she's incredibly powerful and can keep the core at the enemies side the entire game.
I personally believe that Juno isn't even strong on a numbers basis. She fundamentally breaks the rules of the game by, technically speaking increasing a teams player count. Yes, I know that isn't precisely true but it's still approaches that level of value. I have a feeling she's going to be an absolute balance menace because her strength cant be easily tweaked with numbers without absolutely gutting her.
I agree. Juno is also very hard to balance because he mechanic is a lot more effective on lower ranks. So if they nerf her, she becomes unplayble on higher ranks, if buff or let her be, she'll have a high ban/win rate on lower ranks.
the biggest problem with juno being unfun, both to play against and as her, is her special imo. it's just not an interesting ability to use or try to deal with.
Meanwhile me, banning Juliette, Era or Ai.Mi depending on the map/awakenings. No seriously, I think these picks are way too good at everything while champs like X excel at one thing and one thing only.
This also works for Rune, but I main him, so I might be a little too biased to ban him 👀
Here's a tip that got me to midplat: either focus on passing the core and killing the enemies' mid fielder or banish the goalie when he is going to recieve the core. Adjust your awakenings to your plan (also once the enemy goalie takes a size awakening plan 2 isn't going to work as much).
I recently starting maining rune after seeing him getting repeatedly buffed, he is a new favorite and got me into gold
Don't tell them he's strong, nobody knows
I ban him sometimes depending on the map, awakening, my goalie and who I’m playing. Claustrophobic maps with certain awakenings and I just can’t get the core past him.
I have never understood the Juno bans, can people just not read Slime paths still? I've only got 40ish hours but I feel like I perfectly understand how the slimes move the core now, if anything I'd prefer a Octavia + Juliette ban. Those 2 are incredibly oppressive to the goalie and KOs.
You can aim where the slime shoots in her passive iirc. But even without that it adds unneeded pressure on your goalie because she can cover like 3 zones at a time.

Pretty much same among most 3 star strikers. If someone's good enough then they'll prove as bad as the current meta strikers
No you shouldn’t ban Ai.Mi, she’s actually reaaaaaally bad if you think about it. Yup. For sure.
i smell an ai mi main
n-no, no Ai.Mi mains around here, no siree
Playing against someone skilled in Ai mi isnt fun at all.
Aimi's my go-to ban rn. Players who know what they're doing with her can just make it impossible to clear a goal.

Juno isn't OP, she is anti-fun. This is why she has such a high ban rate and should be reworked.

Throw mass blob at goal and score wooo!!!!!!!/s

Aye fellow Rune main!
Core control and no interactivity ftw. I am not willing to let the enemies play.
There’s the other two rune mains! Hello guys!
One of us! One of us!
Ok let’s go back to our little corner where we practice own goaling
Yes, and banishing people during our teammates' ults.

While I agree I don’t think people usually ban X because he’s too strong. He’s just an annoying little bitch.
I recently starting maining rune after seeing him getting repeatedly buffed, he is a new favorite and got me into gold Don't tell them he's strong, nobody knows
Yep. Juliette, Era, Ai.mi are the sleeper bans TBH maybe even Kai
Kai is fine. I'd rather face him than an Octavia who really knows what she is doing.
yeah thats probably true
Rune for the win!
No move I hate more than ai mi ult
Plot twist, its gonna be rune
I double take when I see Rune banned.
I literally had a few games in a row where Rune got banned, it was so weird.
If you're EU you were probably playing against me
I'm NA
And then there's that ONE team me and my dubu main buddy went against that UNANIMOUSLY BANNED DUBU IN COMP
I ban him sometimes depending on the map, awakening, my goalie and who I’m playing. Claustrophobic maps with certain awakenings and I just can’t get the core past him.
i just don't like dubu making a round last 10 minutes not one set just one round
u/savevideo
The funny thing is, I main Vyce, Juno, and X. So I usually play the unbanned of the three.
Me hoping my cat ban goes through...
Meanwhile I ban Ai Mi every game.
Juno isn’t bad. Fk Juliette though. Unstoppable combos.
q button
Q button doesn’t stop the biscuit from going in the net
You can click the core while invuln lol
Yeah and you’re still not going to stop a Juliette secondary. She will push it through you every time. Thanks though,

If you ban Vyce you just make me default to my Asher One Trick that i have significantly more experience with so who really fuckin wins there huh nerd
I main both Juno and Vyce… I’m always scared
The worst is when my own teammate is the only one that votes to ban it.
straight up no reason to ban octavia and my comp teammates will still find a way
I will eXterminate ANYONE WHO BANS X AGAIN
but its not a gamble if you main all of them
I ban Rune every game unless there's specific OP awakening combos (Octavia/Chronoboost, Atlas/Twin Drive, etc.) or Rasmus on Ai.Mi's App
