The new game update is nice so far. But seriously?` The new character Lyra is way too OP. She is both bulky, tanky and also extremely strong in her crystal power. It's almost impossible to kill her. I have played now several matches vs Lyra-players and they were all dominating us (1vs3).
I mean she even dominates other by just beeing a tank. I really think that the devs need to NERF that new character, otherwise its no fun to play anymore. No wonder that alot of people are now ONLY playing her since the update.

Please fix that ASAP.

Lyra is new so yes she may seem strong right now, but as the game progresses with this new hero people will find counters to the hero. As for you saying she can be tanky and really strong in her crystal power path I think you need to see is that her crystal path makes her kind of squishy. Sure a crucible will make her get some extra health but in the long run for a Lyra running crystal power she's not super tanky. As everyone knows most people who go all crystal power and/or weapon power are weaker in total health than a roamer. (Maybe you might need to even focus her.) Lrya as a roamer is a different thing she's quite tanky but doesn't dish out the damage to make a huge drastic change. Sure she can help her teammates, and provide support but so does every other roaming hero. I have played against Lyras myself and from what I've played they're simply one or the other. That being tanky or heavy on crystal power. As a final note I believe giving it time will be the only way to find strong counters to Lyra. And in the end put an end to the idea of Lyra being over powered.

For Lyra you just have to live through early game and then you will be able to wreck her late game.

I'm sorry, but when your hero can build damage and then turn around and tank the ******* kraken, or dominate 2v1, it's broken.

A lot of heroes can do that

Yes but most have tanky abilities. Maybe instead of 'tank' I should have said 'solo', that was a poor choice of words. The point still stands, Lyra has a badass standard attack, a heal/damage, a mega-slow, and a teleport, plus whatever the player buys.

Personally to me Lyra is not broken and is actually fairly weak. Her attacks do very little damage and she is a healer. However she can be good if you know how to play her, which I do not

Lyra weakness is Phinn. Trust me.

Lyra weakness is Ringo. Period. Phinn is just OP by himself Phinn and Ringo Lyra stands no chance. ok now my personal opinion imagine Lyra VS Ringo, Phinn... and Joule OMG.


Lyra uses A to scout and speed heal. Phinn disregard and engages. As soon as ringo enters Lyra drops a B special as Ringo uses his A and B as well as Phinn. Joule and big red button done.


As you can see Lyra not so strong play with me and you will Succeed.

I have foreseen the future in hindsight ;p
