Cyclone was in every xpac overpowerd, but this was the main tool of Druids, to create a snowball effect, what leads to a Kill potential (besides of Rdrood)
if Dps Druids have no cyclone (legion showed it) they have to buff the Dmg instead, so dps druid can be a Warri and kill u with just raw dmg what isnt the case currently
Feral druids kill you most likely either with Incarn, or with Cyclone, what created a snowball effect
old cc values? only thing about cc what got Nerfed is Blind. the kidney dr change, was more like a buff to some rogues, what still failed the 1/2 sec kidney Dr
i forgot if Destro lost the âdouble coilâ did they, or cant spec into it anymore? because the cc toolkit looks the same to me, only thing what they lost when it comes to controll is the root, but they got a shorter cd on port or no? the low dmg and the high amount of micro cc looks more of an issue for Destro locks cuz they cant cast at all, and even then, the kill pressure is not there, from my point of view, destro misses the âinstant kill pressure dmg, to create Momentumâ like the portals in Legion/Bfa
like i said, Cyclone wasnt the Problem, before they tuned close to every âhardâ cc down, like blind, Poly, trap etc
u have to understand that the Main Problem about Cyclone is, that u can modifier it with so many haste Talents + the fact, that the Kick duration got Nerfed, that they can spam it.
i cast sometimes Cyclone, even if i dont plan to cc, to just get a free kick, because idc about the short lockout, i will hit cyclone anyway.
and against some Matchups, u dont even try to cyclone without of the haste modifiers, because the team have too much, to stop it, especially when they have a shaman in the team
i think Cyclone is fine, and other cc should be increased to the old value back, the Gameplay to spam as much micro cc as possible, to prevent the enemy from playing the game aint it
Cyclone have atleast a Counterplay, micro cc doe´s not, and are more annoying, the other long cc´s are just too bad in the current Meta, and to nerf Cyclone wont change anything, because then Blizz counterbalance it With a dmg buff, and people will cry even more
The only nerf to it, what i can âimagineâ to put a cd on it, but it will be a Bandaid fix, and will not target the current issue about the Game âmultiple micro cc, and the need of precogâ
