Whoever is in charge of the recent lego buffs is really missing the mark:
Wurlim got his 2nd (maybe 3rd) buff and he is still vault material.
Norog was possibly the worst lego in the game, and after his buff he is roughly equivalent with an Epic for Block Buffs. His buff certainly wasn't enough to justify anyone switching away from Uugo...I may throw some gear on him and give him a whirl, but only because I already have him booked. I didn't have a lot of Block Buffs options when Hydra first came out, so it was Norog and two Umbrals for me back in the day.
If they woudl've given Wurlim full team Pefrect Veil or 100% AoE Freeze, that would've been enough to make him viable.
Norog needed at least one more thing to make him truly viable because his signature move is no better than that of an epic....Hex or Dec Speed on the A2 would've gotten it done.
They used to get it right sometimes. Eva went from Campaign Farmer to legit WuKong counter. Teela went from vault guard to A-Tier Hydra Hex/Burner/Support. However, I am not sure the last time they buffed a Lego that actually became useful, except when they totally broke Trunda.
