I disagree with assassinate back on Ninja, it will just up his cost to much. I rather see him with dragging attack since I feel like gap closing is one thing Ferren needs. I belive that we need dispelling blows back. It was a key ability for Ferrens pre-expansion.
With the last pushing against superchamps and debuffing (like nontargetable doom and new IS exo) I cannot agree more about Ferren needing some kind of Dispell. But hey, this is a theme in development, we should suggest that rather than feel betrayed or pissed off. (not calling you are daem, just a general word)
I raged alot at patch, but I just dropped it and move on. We have to give good feedback and suggestions to devs and see if they are willing to listen. I would love to get dispelling blows back, its a strong ability but either that or dispell.
Pretend for a moment Ferren didn't have Dispelling Blows before - which champion would you like it on now?
Honestly, I still think Ferren Dancer would be the best one for it. If not her then you could add it to the overall support kit of the snowspinner.
Snowspinner is in a good spot and I would keep her the way she is. Replacing Charm would be the best option for us.
I'm having a hard time thinking what to replace for Dispelling Blows or Dispell. I find all ferrens were well though and fill more or less a defined roll. Also the ability to dispell a champ is something very desirable in your bg. Something you would possible regret not upgrading on certain situations. In the case of replacing Charm, I can see it as the less missable upgrade, but I also find very painful to choose between Dispelling Blows and Distract, since it shortens Ferren Focus condition chains. I haven't tested it yet, but I believe Ferren Dancer doesn't need that extra speed on Upgrade 2, since she can help from a distance, and isn't a powerful double tapper (no Ferren are in terms of damage). So what do you think about trading back Dispelling Blows or Dispell for Stat Bonus: Speed from Upgrade 2? @daeminicus @doubtofbuddha
