Folks seem to be hyper-focused on the buffs but seem to have skipped over the wave clear nerf, I'm interested to see thoughts after people actually try the changes.

I find visuals help: https://youtu.be/5WOx9mIJysw This is basically why the wind up is such an issue. Compare to the other tanks I use as an example the counterplay to Blaze's engage is a huge window by comparison though it is limited to specific heroes, but draft dependency is rough
Really cool video, one thing to consider though is that not every Main Tank is always meant to hard engage, sometimes they are meant to protect against heavy dive, like an Arthas or a Johanna by being that rock in the front line that absorbs damage and disrupts assailants.

Arthas and Garrosh do that by hard countering melee heroes (i basically die if I'm melee with one of those heroes as kerrigan and they don't die in cc for example) , Johanna has a lot of disruption on short cd + still a reliable engage post 10How do you think blaze fits this role

That was just a general statement on the definition of a MT, not specifically Blaze. I'm just trying to see if the narrative that not every MT fulfills exactly the same criteria is valid. I think Blaze doesn't have the best engage but he has enough tools to compensate for it.

Mmmm. At the pro level Johanna's engage is fine post-10 but Arthas isn't really. However he gets drafted with Medivh, Kerrigan, etc., heroes that supplement that weakness. If we're talking about stand-alone tho, all tanks have a reliable engage at the pro level or aren't tanks.
