@ RealPixel: He has been honest, unbiased and constructive the best he can, he by simple terms presented to you a simple reality: Balance does not come merely from measurable magnitudes, but the tools themselves and their interaction with the enviroment, and how healthy are they with the established system.

If you take the numbers of every ability in the kit, you're still left with a spammable projectile block, passive/free power, unreliable heal, cleanse, spellshield, purge (Removing beneficial status effect from a target), hard CC, invulnerability and untargetability, all within a resourceless skillset for a mobile burst-base assassin with deplorable base stats that, along with the conditions set between abilities, work to gate the overload of effects in it.

By the way, you asked for what I meant by "gated", simple, in order to balance what would arguably be a monstruos force, a set amount of conditions are established to not make easily accessible the aforementioned, or simply to compensate the sheer amount of power granted.

He has been in this community long before you and I, even with our times combined; he has been willing to serve and offer help for those who are willing to ask for it, and acts equally impartial to anyone, because he tries his best.

If you threat him whom unasked comes and begets service, and yet you despise his advice, despite he just pointed the exact issue that the rest mentioned, then you are not fit to receive help, at least not until accepting that the design has flaws. And if you are just prolonging the argument just to leave it to rest at your favor, then for the worst, you are not worth to discuss with, or invest time on.

Sorry for the authoritarian tune, but if you are new here you should be more tolerable, we are not Riot, we will not make your wish come true, and we are no-one to bots, we feel as much as you, we help when we can, and if denied do not expect aid later.

...

Damn, this was long.
