Just a scrub but Geb feels awkward to me.

His shield is bonkers, but the rest of his kit feels awkward. His roll, while it gives great mobility, is just so hard to use. It tends to save enemies more than anything plus the turn radius on it is huge so it's not exactly easy to curve behind them. I've been trying to use it in a more Eve-esque fashion where I attempt to flank them, but that's not easy either. His ult is strong, but the radius is comparatively tiny and when you add the cast time it's actually kinda hard to hit optimally w/out blink.

First impressions of Geb after last night - he's pretty good.

i agree that the giant rolling golden apple has a bad turning radius and is next to useless in engaging in head on fights. It does relatively little damage for sending them flying directly away from you usually to safety. It does feel awesome when you come in for a flank and land it but it feels like this only happens if they don't see you coming at all because if they do then they just take a step to the left and you are screwed. Better to cancel roll at that point then trying to force it (and look like an idiot rolling around like i did many times last night) and just ult now that you are right beside them. which is the best way to land the small radius ult without blink like you mentioned. but the blink ults are strong too. otherwise landing the slow before you hit max speed is pretty good if you cant hit them the right direction. kinda like a gap closer with soft cc.

i think ymir is stronger in the same role. same health and magic resist base stats but ymir is a little better on physical resist with a load of cc that is useful in a heads up situation like you usually find in the duo lane. geb makes up for worse physical resist with his passive which will let him tank more autos late game. geb can get around a little easier and escape easier with his rolling ball but i'm not sure how much that is worth. the shield is the wild card it can really save your carry so i must learn to master the shield. but imagine both ymir and geb ults on the same group of people :O i want to try that in arena.

I'm having a real problem not having useful 600 dollar shoes to buy at the start lol. I have no idea what to buy on anyone now.

Geb is better at roaming that Ymir, and roaming is very prevalent in the meta right now. I know Geb is banned in at least the next week of tournament play, but I expect to see some really strong Geb play once pros are able to use him.

The $300 boots are awkward, but I think it's ok. On hunter I've been starting Devo gloves + boots 1 + red pot + health pot. It seems to be working really well, but none of my lane opponents did the same, so I'm not sure yet. I'll have to play more games in ranked to see what works.

20 extra attack power for FIVE MINUETS is pretty strong but it is pretty expensive. thats like more than a deaths toll worth of attack power and adds like more than 50% to your level one auto attack base stats. but it sucks if you die so its kinda all in.

solution - you don't die, you kill

5 minutes for $400 is pretty damn good. I still have to play around with it more to see if it's really worth it.

yes we did see some inexplicable bouncing the wrong direction last night and like you said it would be really valuable to figure out how that works now while people are picking him every game.

I've found that if you use a repositioning skill after you get hit by Geb boulder, you can actually make it so you get pushed in a different direction.

wow they cut his shield down a lot. but it was too strong anyways, this might make it possible to consider burning through it instead of treating it like an invulnerability.

Those are all totally reasonable nerfs I think. Freya nerfs might be a bit hack'n'slash, but I'm not really complaining. Arachne nerf looks fine, especially if they're going to leave her ult as wide as it is.

Also, yay no more ward jizz!

I'm not sure about borked, but I did notice the recent games that I play are much harder than before, I got matched with Hirez people and some streamers despite still level 21.
Frustrated as fuk when some 50-mastery dudes run around and rape your team in 10 min.
