I've been playing for between a month or 2 & typically play Light & assassin class. I tend to stay away from the General playstyle, but am familiar with it & comfortable with some. I'm most familiar with Regulus, Rook, Oak, & Unclean Beast. I've only occassionally played TB, QoT, & Erebus, & up until a few days ago, had never played Sedna.
So I gave her a shot. Now, I've seen some (IMO) crazy OP'd Erebus players who can seemingly run faster than me no matter how I spec & therefore chase forever, have unlimited heals/HP, have insane damage output, etc, etc. I'd previously thought Erebus is potentially the most OP'd DG. But Sedna outdoes even that. I won every 1v1, every lane stand off, every match so far as Sedna. Admittedly, some of these matches had retarded stuff going on, but I got a good enough feel for her skills & playstyle.
Regardless, my point is, Sedna is damn powerful if a first-timer can pick up & play her & easily dominate the first few matches. All I did was buy level 1 priest idols, Pounce, the +400 HP, +5 HP/sec, +100 HP minion Favor item, & I upgraded lowest-cost mana skills & passive skills first. I could literally stay in the field dominating flags, lanes, & stand offs until level 9 or 10 before returning to the Citadel and/or buying artifacts.
Is my opinion off base? Was I just playing total noobs? Is it weird that I had an exponentially easier time winning with Sedna than with Regulus or Rook? I realize self-heals help a lot, but it almost seems retarded how effective they are. Anyone else agree?
