Simple Changes that would make Ben Grimm simply better

The Thing in his current state is underwhelming and while looks good in theory i couldnt understand why he is so bad until I realized. The Thing suffers the most into his bad matchup while providing mediocre value into his role with little versatility to offer.

The Thing Balance Suggestions

  • Gains invulnerability in the first 3 seconds during Yancy Street Charge Activation

  • Yancy Street Charge deals 200 damage per second on contact against enemy summons, shields, and any bonus Health

  • Remove Bonus Health Gain from Yancy Street Charge

  • increase Base Health from 700 to 800

These changes would grant him the unique value as a utility clearer as a melee hero. Mitigate his weaknesses to poke/focus fire, improve his peel capabilities and removes the Hard Counter matchup into Groot
