I don’t know what to make of the Beck skin.

Ironically, 4-CEP looks more terrifying without his 4 skin than he does with it…

Is it called “the only legendary skin I would never use”?

My dude, that’s the most amazing skin I have ever seen! I might even switch out my muerto portrait for that skin portrait. The skill improvement is also going to make beck useful so if you use her, there is no reason not to love that skin!

Speaking of legendary skins not used:

I have the Nightingale, Heckler, and Salvatore legendary skins and I opt not to use any of them (despite opining they look cooler, and them obviously bringing stat increases) because I feel the skill changes make all those skills worse than the original skills. Does anybody else have an opinion on that?

Nightingales is the best skin by far out of all of them. Rather have a full squad heal then a single person and hecklers help in the overall power for war

Tollbooth: But most opponents focus on one ally with their DPS hero first, or if you have a taunter on your team…same thing. I used the Nightingale skin for along time. But after months of using it, I was happier and had more success when I stopped using it. I really hope the new Nightingale skin is Legendary with a different skill. But if it is just rare, I will definitely be using it over the legendary.

Yeah, Night is honestly better without the skin.

Correct me if I’m wrong here, but legendary skins don’t give any power advantage over other skins, as power is independent of skills, right?

I upgraded his bronze skill and nothing changed. The only thing I see different is the starting duration is 6sec instead of 7sec. What’s up?

Not expecting the Beck skin… :turkey: & Healing Gravy :safety_vest: Take away: Thanksgiving if anyone eats too much it’s gravy (quick to reduce feeling full)!!!
Gravy :bomb: :eyes:
I hope the new hero adjustments work well…
Hot Heads- Congratulations on the donations :clap::tada::+1:
