WHY ON EARTH DOES STYX SELF CONFUSE
IF A SPELL ACTIVELY HURTS ME AND REDUCES MY CHANCES OF WINNING A VERB, IT BETTER BE GIVING ME SOMETHING GOOD IN EXCHANGE AHHHHHHHHHHHH
Why use this spell over any other AOE? It doesn't even do good damage! IT'S NOT EVEN A PARTICULARLY LARGE AOE! IT'S ABSOLUTELY TINY SO IT'S RIDICULOUSLY DIFFICULT TO HIT
But guess who gets hit by it if you whiff it despite its size!? That's right, you! The person who cast it in the first place! And even if you do hit it, is the upside of hitting your opponent for a few thousand damage worth self-confusing?
Why wouldn't you use better spells? Like, for instance, Fall: 30x Gravity, which deals 10 damage on a much lower cooldown /and/ which slows your enemy /and/ which is easy to hit? Why not just use that? Why would you ever not use that (or another AOE spell since they're all probably better) instead of hard-to-hit, self-confusing, low-damage STYX of all things?
What an obscene spell. I'm genuinely offended by how godawful it is.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
EDIT: The best part? It's on a 40 second cooldown. 40 seconds for a tiny spell that confuses you and doesn't even do good damage. If you really want Styx to self-confuse, make it like Fog Bank and give it a tiny cooldown so you can just spread it all over the battlefield.
