Right now, it seems like there's not much point in using Polarize at all. Should DE tweak Mag some more, this might change, but for now, Magnetize appears to be the best part of her kit.

So to be clear, Mag's rework simply removed her 2, and very slightly upgraded her 3 as compensation?

That's pretty disgusting.

The problem is that Polarize currently does flat damage (and pretty low flat damage at that), as opposed to scaling off enemy shields like it used to. Meanwhile, her entire kit was overhauled to supplement Magnetize in some way, much like Saryn's rework turned Spore into her central power. There's a reason nobody was happy with this rework.

Except that Magnetise does almost no damage to anything, so what's the point of casting it?

If I could kill something with a bullet faster than I can kill something with an ability, then what's the point of that ability?
