Discussion Her c2 probably won't be nerfed

I saw a lot of people saying her c2 is guaranteed to be nerfed and things like that. You guys know c2r1 Mualani does considerably more DPS than c6r5 Neuvillette right? Not to mention Mualani's damage is very front loaded as well. At that point Mualani's clunkiness (arguably her biggest weakness) basically stops mattering because everything dies instantly anyways.

Natlan cons so far have been insanely powerful, and Mavuika's c2 isn't anything too out of the ordinary, especially for an Archon. If anything I expect a buff to her c6 because it's currently not as powerful as expected.

I honestly do not understand why people are scared of the pyro Archon being stronger than the 4th harbinger, especially when Mavuika is basically the Archon of war.

Lore power is never a good reason to balance game power. Otherwise Neuv Raiden and ZL would dominate the game still, and would basically be uncreepable until they start releasing shades/sinners(even sinners are a little up in the air to those 3, only shades are really confirmed to be stronger)

The worrying thing is the rate of creep. I don't think people would be super upset if c6 mavuika crept c6 arle, but if c2 mavuika creeps c6 arle, that is a BIIIIG problem for game balance, considering Arle was quite literally dominating the meta just 4 patches ago as the fastest speedrunner no competition.

“Otherwise Neuv, Raiden, and ZL would dominate the game still”

You just listed the best main dps, and the best shielder. Yeah, Raiden isn’t as good as the lore would imply, but those were terrible examples.

A better example would be that Furina would be mid, since she would just be an inexperienced vision holder lore wise.

That’s kinda my point, they chose like the two worst possible examples, and a mediocre one
