honestly piercer is kind of broken, the fact that his values scales in the magnitude it does makes him undeniably the best character in the game. he needs some sort of check on his power scaling. instead of
1 -> 2 - > 3
it should be something like
1->2 -> 3 with self damage or some sort of check, maybe even a cap on its power
I really like the game but piercer is just so dominant, you literally have to build comps around countering it
