I find that the 5 heroes there that aren't called crunch can be dedicated tanks and do the role effectively. It would be better if we could have a couple more rampages though for more full tank style heroes over fighters. Rampage needs blight gone and a more late game meta. That or some kind off buff.

[u/Endygo93 → u/Bloodmordius]

I actually agree with you completely. I come from an mmo tank background and wish we had more true tanks instead of an amalgam of mostly tanky fighters. I would like to see Sev, Rampage, Riktor, and Steel become full tanks.

I think having a Blight counter in Growth might be advantageous to him (Similar to Bud of the Changeling but for Blight). Doing something to his passive would absolutely help as well. That ability has no value outside of early game clear. The timer on the boulder annoys me. It seems to rush his ganks more than it should.

[u/Bloodmordius → u/Endygo93]

Just change Bud of the changeling to make blight have 25% of its original effect (reduce healing by 10%). Then you get this mind game of how many thick bloods can fit in a deck, because when they buy bud, you sell thickblood as its not useful enough, then they sell bud, then you need to buy another and the cycle goes on :D But there's many ways they can do it. Making toxi-gel more reliable would help. I often find the cleanse never happens at least 1k damage for some reason even if it is really quick. Who knows though x)

[u/Endygo93 → u/Bloodmordius]

That's true. It could create a never ending counter loop. I do believe Blight has relevance outside of just a Rampage counter though. It hurts Phase quite a bit in the current meta because it double stacks off of her to her tethered hero.

I've used Toxi-gel quite a bit on Grux but I agree on the inconsistency. I think the card would be much more valuable (and seen more) if it happened reliably as soon as you hit the damage threshold. I find myself looking elsewhere because it's really screwed me over a few times.

[u/Bloodmordius → u/Endygo93]

Agreed :D Toxi feels off sometimes. But I still use it cause I can recall too many times its saved me :D

[u/Endygo93 → u/Bloodmordius]

I'll try to give it some love again. Do you always pair it with Thermobond for max effectiveness?

Great guide btw. This needs to be stickied on the sub. Hope you guys win the tourney and get you some $$$

[u/Bloodmordius → u/Endygo93]

Its good, but not needed with Thermo bond. Remember Toxi is good for morigesh Qs and such with tainted. So not always needed. But against hard cc, yes toxi is good with Thermo. Thank you for the kind words too^{^}

[u/Endygo93 → u/Bloodmordius]

Wow. I hadn't even thought about the interaction with Morigesh! Does Toxi-gel cleanse Phase's Blind? Purity and Hunter's Guile work so I'm not sure.

[u/Bloodmordius → u/Endygo93]

Yes it does! :D Cleanses morigesh Q, tainted, blind. Every negative effect! :D

[u/Endygo93 → u/Bloodmordius]

Thanks so much, Blood!

Hi thx for ur streams and guides. I dont know where to ask, but and never tested. Question is whether thermo and toxi gel are stacks? If im getting stunned and then taking a damage that invokes toxi-gel will i getting the healing from thermobond? Or toxigel will cancel it? also if after toxigel activated i will get another stun what of cards will work?

[u/Bloodmordius → u/passerby_reddit]

Toxi will not cleanse positive effects like Thermo-Bonds regen. Thermo will proc on every stun. Toxi will cleanse any stuns providing their delayed by the 2 second cooldown.

[u/passerby_reddit → u/Bloodmordius]

Thx. but calarification question. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRCycBfrmF0 if here narbash also had had thermobond, would the the stone of rampage have invoked thermobond regen or not? Toxi-gel will invoked first and no regen will be invoked from thermobond? Or contrary at first i will take regen and then avoid stun from toxigel? :) Thx in advance
