Geist is a miserable hero to fight against
There's no other hero in this game that is more exhausting and unfun to fight against.
- Her bombs detonate instantly and deal insane damage. Dealing over 100 damage without any items or upgrades in the just laning phase.
- Her 2 is an aimbot that she can use while still shooting her gun granting insane DPS. And it also grants sustain. Great.
- Her 3's "self-damage" does NOT matter at all. It's supposed to be a risk to use an ability that deals damage to the user, but when there's an item like Berserker, a Geist player can just spam the 3 and get free stacks. Which is such a dumb and boring playstyle. Spam your 3 while roaming, get free stacks. No risk, big reward.
- And don't even get me started on her ult. She has swap? Don't engage her. Just don't play the game until someone sacrifices themselves. What a boring and uninteresting design. And even worse, finisher abilities don't counter it either when she can pop Cheat Death and just get to full HP, with an item that is SUPPOSED TO LEAVE YOU AT 1 HP. This makes her literally impossible to 1v1. Everyone drop whatever you're doing and 1v6 Geist so she can't ruin a fight. Good luck coordinating that in a lobby.
- She has above 50% winrate across ALL RANKS (except Ascendant for some reason)
- A literal crutch character that rewards no-aiming, zero risk evaluation, and careless gameplay. You have your 1 to have area denial, 2 to deal free damage, your 3 that gives damage amp with insane amount of projectiles which is impossible to miss, and your ult which just rewards you for being careless with your HP.
- Nobody seems to talk about how broken she is, resulting in her never being banned and being picked in literally every match.
