Bottom line is she needs to take short brakes and her allies also need to take short brakes. Grenade is the skill gauging ability for Morales.
True, but the ability to kill the entire minions comes wayyyy late into the game.
i think by lvl18 she can kill minions with it,
Just a little buff to her AA should be easy, shouldnt cost any harm.
especially as most healers can do nice amount of damage.
Kharazim can do more damage than assassins with his 7kick ultimate and by agressive play
rehgar can do as much damage as a bruiser by being agressive
even deckard does good damage with tht talent where hitting 2 heroes give 200% increase damage on rooting
and well, malf can do tonnes of damage with the tiny broccoli it spawns on rooting, if tht talent is taken ,and if he keeps landing his moonfires.
Ana does some too, so does brightwing, even lili can do as much as bruiser,
Morales is the only one that is way below, a little love to those AA can be good
Also, grenade is a skillshot, skillshot + reactivate to detonate, thts like being double skillshot .
She has that ability right from the start
Even if the damage doesnāt kill them outright it definitely helps take care of the wave
And if what you say is true about level eighteen damage being enough to wipe out a whole minion wave then it means she has excellent wave-clear to go and grant her team level twenty by wiping out minions constantly
Now thatās something the other Healers just cannot do
A lot of people are unaware that Lieutenant Morales is a great pusher due to her ability to heal minions
She remains one of the ONLY Healers still in the game to be able to do so
This is a strength quite often overlooked
No, im wrong, i thought so, may be bcoz some other ability hit same time, and i missed on it,
even at level 20, the grenade (with all grenades talents) puts the minion on half health, the range minions r almost at 25% or 30% health, the mele r abt 40 50% i think,
Yes, she can heal minions, thts a way for her self sustain when running away and not having any hero close by to heal herself up
Thatās only half of what that capability is for
Itās true that minions can be used to activate her trait to heal her up
But Iāve actually tried healing minions when pushing and it makes a BIG difference
Try it out for yourself
The Melee Minions at the front have the most health
And assuming she can heal Catapults too then it means she can make a big difference both mid and late-game too when it comes to pushing AND defending
That can work in AI, but in ranked it wont,
coz morales shudnt b alone in a lane with minions,
Also, if shes not alone, she shud b healing the ally,
but in some cases, where the ally is healed, ,and we getting a fort or keep, keeping the mele minion alive which the enemy fort is targeting, well, sounds interesting
I just played a game in Ranked and won because I did this from time to time
I know what Iām talking about
Do you really think I would suggest something that has no hope of working in Ranked?
Not always
Sometimes it helps to go alone when defending especially when no one else in your team cares enough to do so
And itās very useful when playing with more than one Healer on your team
You are mistaken about what I was trying to tell you
Keeping the Melee Minion alive will not work very well targeted by a Fort or Keep as she will run out of Energy really quickly
Healing the minions are more effective when you are defending
It helps when pushing but not so much when minions are being bombarded by enemy buildings
Also I just tested it today
She indeed CAN HEAL ALLIED CATAPULTS!
This can make a HUGE DIFFERENCE in late-game lanes
thts a rare
well in this case, 100% agreed, else, the healer shud b with the team, and morales shud always be near an ally to self heal, as minions die too soon leaving morales optionless to heal from anything if there is no hero nearby.
True, but i think, it can buy at least extra 5 seconds or even more, and that is a HUGE difference for your ally to ensure a fort destruction ,
In many cases, the the fort is half down, and the last mele minion stands,
in tht case, healing the ally not good, bcoz his attack speed also slowed, healing the minion can buy u extra time, (if its not killed with one shot, i think one shot doesnt kill minnion? or it does?)
if its kiled by one fort shot, then useless, else, morales can buy time for the ally to destroy fort as the fort is targeting the mele minion and the ally attack speed is not slowed too,
but still, its like a rare case,
but yes, in defending it can help better, specially if no one is there and morales alone, better just heal a mele minion to buy extra time
Oh, certainly, morales vs another healer on core (all dead from both side) can surely win the core if its low health n he has a catapault tht he healing
imagine if stim drone can work on catapaults too hahah would be EPIC lol
Definitely not. There are ways you can play around her. There are 4 tactics which come to mind instantly. For this you will have to use your brain as i am a regular morales player and i donāt want to shoot myself in the foot, but think yourself lucky that she was nerfed because before the rework she was op.
You are talking about back when she had Mana instead of Energy right?
Those were the good old days
Caduceus Reaction 2.0 was so powerful too because it gave Mana Regeneration as well!
