I don't like this rework at all. Hammer indeed needs changes to her talents, but not her abilities. Abilities Your rework basically removes what being a Siege Tank means. Siege Mode MUST be her core ability, but you turned it into a "Press this in a teamfight to easily win, then forget about it until the next teamfight" type. This is bad. Spider Mines are named like that for a reason. If they don't chase, they are no longer Spider Mines. Not to mention that such a change...

Why did you use Vel'Koz's artwork from League of Legends?

It is restricted to a set area.

Because...that's what she was made for?

>if i'm understanding correctly the area follows you right? Defile needs to be channeled, meaning you can't move while casting it, so there is no movement happening at all.

Blizzard deleted such talent of Tassadar for a reason. Maybe reduce the bonus to 25%? Defensive Shielding should give 20 Armor instead of 25 IMO.

Sindragosa is the CC ult.

Talents?

I changed the damage of Dragon Blade and its duration because of how much burst it can deal compared to X-Strike. Dragon Blade is better most of time, that's why i decided to change it to deal the same damage in total, but not that fast. X-Strike deals low damage, especially compared to Dragon Blade. Perfect Defense won't be unbalanced, because CC still stops it.
