bc basically kills vindi's early game. and her late game isnt very good either, so with the introduction of one item, it killed one hero =\

engineer + electrician = win.
scout with harkons + riftshards = 2 shot carry heroes
balphagore with blood chalice = win in non em at least

i still fully disagree
if you're going to chalice just so you can cast something to remove sage's lore, you're throwing it on a 35 second cd, losing mana overall, and losing 150 hp

either way, vindi is good pressure no matter what imo

i think its still a huge nerf to vindi. if you have a healer in the lane, the hp drop is basically negated. and if you have a nuker in the lane, the nuker loses 150 hp, but vindi or whoever else is in the lane could take nuke damage. blood chalice also gives 2 hp/sec regen and on top of natural regen which is about 1hp/sec, over 35 seconds you're regening 115 hp so the loss of 150 hp is noticeable instantaneously, but not as time goes on

if you can effectively use the chalice as a 150 hp nuke, you're adding to any existing burst, and 150 hp lost is 150 hp lost
but yeah, still affects vindi
either way, though, vindi is still a powerful fucking hero with a potentially game-changing ultimate

Who would want to play em anyways?
And any scout is = lose

any mana depended hero + bc = gg

scout with riftshards? savage mace>
