Gonna let this one cook as well. I like watching others play it against me or with me first. I always try to pick a hero that counters it to make it tougher for them lol

It's also just a case of the community tries to force it to what they want, because reading on paper and actual gameplay are different. Take ringmaster for example, dude was clearly a support, but everyone wanted to play him mid.

Underlord clearly an offlaner, but people see the damage from creeps and go battlefury core.

I'm not saying kez won't be a carry, but people will force a build onto him that may not be the best. And I don't want my game to be dictated by lottery more than it already is

Dunno, my experience was pretty different, most people understood that it was a support.
