    Costs 45 Nora. Grants Majestic, Purified and Backlash for 6 turns. That is already undercosted, in my opinion, for all the value you get, especially if it is used on a superchamp. And then it returns you 35 Nora if the target unit is killed while the spell is still active. So you get all these cool abilities at once for a measly 10 Nora if your unit dies. The hell?

    I've been running a KF/UD split for a while, but after seeing this bull**** used in my last match I am considering switching to ST/UD.

    Put it on Short Lived champs to be sure the champ dies under the spell effect.

    You run Overlord and drop it the second you're losing I don't feel bad if you run into majestic

    OK, and ST players run Icefang, so? And I deploy Overlord not when I am losing, but when I think he is the best unit to deploy. I run only 10-11 champs in my BG, so oftentimes I have to deploy what I have available, not what I want.

    PS. And by the way, I think that Overlord is not all that great. He is very good as a crowd control unit, but one-on-one he loses to a lot of champs with the same or smaller Nora cost. For example, to Minotaur Render with Pace, Crushing Blow and Render (for only 69 Nora), or to any unit with fire-eater (and this is just UD).

    Another insanely undercosted ST spell is Arctic Gift. (I wish UD had a spell that would grant Lavawalker, Lava veil and Domain: Lava for 20 Nora.)
    And the craziest part is that this spell has no turn limit. Any 4 next units deployed or summoned get the gifts.

    Lava Veil would be super broken since it's the only terrain that does damage (aside from Unstable Ground, but that's not really a terrain type). Fire Eaters would also get insane healing from that much lava.

    I get it. People don't like Voths.

    PS. I was just pointing out undercosted runes. They affect all players, not just me.
    Although I don't know if anybody can adjust their costs or ban them from Ranked in the current state of the game.

    Yeah, I was not trying to say it would have the same effect for the same Nora cost. It was a bit exaggerated to make a point.

    No one can.

    No one like UD. Ok, that's a lie, i don't. But i also don't like SP,FS,FW,ST,KF,SL.....ok i like only IS cuz is OP

    There are plenty.

    Besides, back in the days BG should have at least 16 champs honeslty idk right now
