I played last night but only in Competitive. Strix is crossed off in Competitive at the moment. You can’t select him. So I’m not sure how good he is yet.

I also didn’t know about the Ruckus change. Seems like Ruckus is more of a DPS than ever. Repulsor Field was tough as you could only shield a friendly you were facing and it only lasted a second or two. I’m not sure what they are trying to do with Ruckus.

BTW, my favorite tank at the moment is @beers_and_leafs’s main. Ash. She’s pretty tough.

I play Ruckus a lot as well as I think he’s a key champion. Have a solid bullet catching Champ, Ruckus as a secondary tank / dps, Jenos for massive heals and dps, and either a victor or Tyra. Then whatever you want for the fifth and you have a winning team.

They ban Ruckus a lot in Competitive.
