Gord gets a small, but important buff in this patch
Before the patch, The Professor of Mystic is rarely used because his skill set needs him to be standing still all the time, a red flag in the current meta where assassin and jungle heroes who can pin down and jump in the backline are prevalent.
Most of his skills have long casting times, making him an easy target in team fights. One example of this is his ultimate, Mystic Gush, where he needs to stand still for a couple of seconds while firing his beam.
Now, Gord can cast Mystic Projectile and Mystic Injunction while moving. He can also use Battle Spells during Mystic Gush’s duration. These changes are a game-changer as he will now be a lot harder to pin down. Think of it this way, Gord right now is like a mage version ofIrithel, one of the top marksman heroes in the current meta.
Despite having decreased stats on most of his skills, his increased mobility might turn him into a viable mage in the current meta, alongsideXavierandYve.
