Feeling a smidge under the weather today, so apologies for no video.
Did want to comment briefly on the latest news about Ugir's passive being more effective, as I know a lot of folks will go into conspiracy mode with this: Sometimes it just happens that fixing one thing changes another, for good or bad, and the timing of it is incidental. IF this was a concerted effort to garner more action in the fusion or to sell more frags they would've told us this WAY sooner, not halfway through the fusion event. Besides, it was in there interest to let us know before the fusion went live so our reviews would have been more positive. There are things to criticize raid for, im not sure this is one of them...
However, this doesn't change my overall assessment of the champion or the fusion. The champion's passive is still too mild imo and will need a buff in the future. This does lend some support to using stun/sleep/provoke sets on Ugir and potentially having some increased success there. However fundamental lack of Crowd Control on the a2 or TM skills on the a3 keeps him from being a powerful aid in the current meta in my opinion. Useful? Sure, but as consitituted is fairly underwhelming. That's not taking into account the fusion schedule, which honestly makes it an auto-pass for me as well.
But as always, it's just my opinion and my default stance is a free leggo is better than no leggo...best of luck raiders!
(oh and the screen shot below is of the announcement on discord about Ugir)
