On 4/16 I prefer the barrel roll talents---- the extended range on 4 gives you great gust opportunities and the extra shields are nothing to sneeze at. At 16 comes the 60% movement speed boost after doing an extended barrel roll, and this extreme mobility gives you a very surprising amount of force projection as well: if anyone within your vision is low health, they will die and there is little they can do to stop it. On 20 it's hard to say no to wind tunnel, as it makes gust possibly the best ult in the game IMO. (then again, epic mount is really fantastic.) If it were not for wind tunnel I would probably takes fan's 4 and 16 choices, since I use the barrel roll talents as a patchwork epic mount of sorts. | ||

Incidentally, you know BOOMerang's damage isn't affected by Gathering Storm's stacks, right? So it's not full synergy. I quite like the barrel roll talent at 16 if I'm against heroes like Thrall/Greymane and they're getting on me quite easily. Gives a lot of escape potential. I can't see taking Wind Tunnel at any point other than when going for a core all in. | ||

It's really more of an ease of use thing. However, level 13 does give you more uses of your Q, so it clearly has a multiplicative effect on the damage from your 1 and 7. | ||
