I've been wanting to learn him as I can imagine he is so much fun to play, but I'm a bit scared about the difficulty. I've seen some Lash players absolutely dominate, but so so many dive in and die over and over. Plus - much like Dynamo - having a super impactful ultimate on a massively long cooldown gives me anxiety.
I came from League mostly so I wanted a caster. I think he's so good because height gives you damage. Just climb somewhere high, jump down, 3 then pound with 1, or 1 then pound with 3 (easier, but recent changes to ability buffering/queuing made it so 3-1 is faster), then jump away with 2.
I think a lot of people jump in with 2 and then get stuck because they've all inned and have no escape. But the 2 works on allied things as well so you can just 180 and jump on out of there after bursting them. Then continue laning.
The ult is a bit meh tho imo. Like it's a cone downwards, so a lot of the time I pull it ffrom ground height and the range is so small. You got to throw it from high up to get multiple people and have a good range to aim with.
