She’s a menace on defense. Great design but I do think she has too much going for her on defense especially combined with other nodes. It’s just too much to pay attention to and focus on. Glad there’s a balance program, and I hope they review her defensively.

Thanks! On defense, I think time will tell, but I don't agree (obviously). There are a lot of counters, both with champs and with tactics, that I haven't really seen explored yet because her main counter in incursions is just Herc. People said the same things with Carl, and he turned out to be fine. Kindred too, and we're already seeing more counters for them. We'll see where the data lands, but I will be shocked if she's made easier rather than the community learning how to handle her.

@@dheerajnarayan but they're not unavoidable. We have multiple champions that can block unblockable. We have champions that prevent the debuffs in the first place and keep her out of PLF. We have champions with evade mechanics that can evade the specials. We have champions that can stop her from throwing specials in the first place. Also, besides Heimdall, Domino, Jabari, and Void all turn off dex. Again, this is not new ground. I'm quite confident people are forming impressions too quickly here.

@@Daddylonglegs93 I don’t doubt there will more counters to her especially when new champs are release. And I appreciate you defending your work. But as it stands now, I’ve never had strong feelings about a champ defensively in years. She’s the only one I think is defensively over-tuned. My words aren’t final, it’s what I believe from my experience especially in recent times. Like I said earlier, she has too much going for her already to add defensive nodes on top of it. This is just a summary of things you keep in mind fighting her, and this is not even that straightforward. - you can’t parry without paying a high price. Your attack misses and she’s charged up. - you gotta watch out for high block damage if you don’t have purify or tenacity abilities to remove debuffs on you. Approximately 3 out of your 5 combo might inflict debuffs, not counting hers even when you’re blocking. - undexable specials due to dex fail if you can’t manage her charges well and she hits her charged state (pure light). In most cases even when you do manage her charges, you will still have to pay a price. You’d have to wait out her Pure Light form without pushing her pass a bar of power. This risks either getting hit or taking block damage. All these a major defensive abilities all in one champ to keep in mind when tackling her. Top these up with other tricky nodes and you have a defender that’s either really annoying to manage or near impossible to beat cleanly. Thus, why Herc is the only champ that can consistently combat her in Incursion which means no champ is able to do so. Without AAR, she’s a hands full. Edit: Regardless, great job bro! A lot of thoughts and time went into the design. I just think she’s a bit overturned defensively.

It's not "if she gets to Sp2, you're dead," though. It's "if you push her to Sp2 at a predictable wrong time without one of several answers, or if you enter a fight where she's more likely to get to Sp2 without any of a few dozen ways to mitigate that, you're dead." It's not that different from Heimdall, just tuned properly. If you want to block it and take damage, use Scorpion or Shuri. The former has high block prof to start with and the latter gets perfect block chance. Give it some time. She's not nearly as bad as she reads.

So having now fought your champ in eq I can now confirm you've made a bullshit defender that needs 1 of a few specific counters. Which is fine, there are a number of them out there e.g mephisto, korg, etc but don't pretend that she's anything but that

EQ isn't exactly representative with the extra falter on top. I'm not pretending anything. I've fought her more than anyone else has. But if your standard for BS is Mephisto or Korg, then sure, we can call that comparable. Good new defenders is critical to the game 🤷🏻♂️

Went back to watch this after pulling her, thanks this helps a lot! Just an FYI her max damage reduction isn’t 76%. The taunt debuff reduces the potency of the inequity mastery by the taunts potency so it’s actually 61.6% (40 from taunt and 21.6% from inequity) which is still great. I figured this out after the Cassie Lang bug fix, her taunt is 50% so she was supposed to be able to 86% after the adjustment but in actually she can only each 68% now. Kind sucks but it’s probably more balanced.
@Daddylonglegs93

Happy to help! And you're both right and wrong. The taunt doesn't affect the potency of inequity, it just that the two sources of weakness are multiplicative and not additive, which is something we found out later haha. But yeah, it's a good thing to shout here, and definitely more balanced. Inequity is *plenty* OP haha

To anyone complaining about Photon's undexable specials: You can knock her down while she's below 1 bar of power, so her Pure Light Form will activate. Wait 10-15 seconds before it runs out, then bait her specials which are now dexable until she regains her charges.

I very much dislike fighting against her, not because it is excessively difficult, but because I suck at parries (I almost exclusively rely on intercepting for that reason) and the main counter play in BGs (where you are least likely to have a proper counter) is to parry the last hit of the sp1...on the other hand, shes a lot of fun to play, not quite as fun as Abs Man (who is probably the closest thing in game to a perfect champ where he is extremely good in MOST situations, but braindead op in a small handful of fights). Here's hoping my officers don't assign me too many Photons lol. (also secretly praying they don't ask me to put my ascended Photon on defense)
