Death Nova is a pain in th ass to use, mostly bcause minion targeting is a pain in the ass. And don't spew some "good mms hav no prob" bullshit. No human will ever use death nova as well as a hero. And he didn't ven suggest nerfing it, merely scaling the power down for the reduced effort required to use it.
Don't try to fix something that ain't broken. All I'm saying.

I never thought I'd see a day when I would be agreeing with Del on a bunch of things. But it seems to be happening more and more.

Anyways, the skill is fine as it is...when played by a hero. Heros don't have to worry about the minion targeting. Even if it was made so that it enchanted all minions when you cast it on a minion and not all allies. Kinda like considering all minions as one entity, just to make it a skill usful for human necros.

and this.

I think the skill is fine as it is, while targeting minions for a human is a pain, so better solve general minion targeting than changing a skill.

Or you could just increase the cooldown, possibly the cost, and have it enchant "target and one ally in the area" and code it to not be completely random but favour summons that don't already have Death Nova on them.
