Scion for a starter?

Scion was pretty strong once upon a time, but they nerfed it pretty hard and it never really recovered. Now, at best, is 2nd or 3rd best at whatever your building, usually worse. Probably why it's getting a new ascendancy option; new ascendancies are hit or miss and they didn't show enough details on it to even have a clue yet. That said, I'd watch for the drop of the full ascendancy details and see what people think can be built with it. But you're usually getting that info day before launch, without much time to theory craft.

With what has been shown of the new ascen i think we already have a few builds that are looking strong, not sure how it will stack up with previous iteration obviously. Going to be interesting to see how strong scion will be, then again as they said the unique options will change per league so we might have some bad options at some point.


Kinda worried they tailor the unique options based on build popularity, would make for a weird class that only works with certain options more so then freedom to build.

Seeing maybe having prospero as an option does make me excited for some armor stacking tech, add in victarios choice and smite will be strong.
