Hello Mr. Zhiyong, remember when we had soju together? Great times. Anyway, my community hit 200K subs, so legally you now have to appear in my Season 9 balance video.

Age of Ultron, looks inside, ultron nerfs........
Can't wait for my dps to go 2-9 on champion Cyclops on Saturday morning
bro WHAT WERE THEY THINKING NERFING ULTRON
Damn Felicia got hit with inflation😭😭
holy shit they took black cat outback
Omg, i freakin lost it when you snuck the black widow "changes" in there 🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Faster upload than Zhiyong himself
In what world are we nerfing Ultron but buffing CND?
As a champ ultron, i am depressed now :(
That Black Widow section is killing me
The fact Whitefox escaped with a wrist slap😭🥀
Brooo, patch is not even out yet ! Wtf 😂
It hurts that they've nerfed Ultron. I would've increased his drone range if anything. It sucks staring at an ally who's low health right in front of me and I can't heal them because they're 1 meter out of range. Now it's even worse. If he's such an issue for triple support: apply those nerfs only when there's 3 supports on the team.
At this point ultron it's not even found dead in an alley, he straight up dissappear
They should give Blade some bleed mechanics man😭
Ultron got 1 season of being usable and got gutted back to d tier
