After playing pudge then devourer i think the speed of his hook is a tad slow.
Discuss.

I disagree. It's can be hard to hit heroes, but it was hard to hit heroes in DotA as well.

I think the bigger issue with Guttural Hook is that if you hook someone uphill or downhill, and you're standing too close to the cliff, they don't actually pass through the cliff and are free to run away. That's a huge nerf from DotA's Pudge because it means you have to step away from the cliff-edge before using Hook, effectively reducing its range.

The problem with the Hook is that ideally, the skill is very powerful, kept in check by its difficulty of actual use. If they increase the speed of the hook, making skill use easier, I'd hope that they lower its range.

Agree with biyabo, the game is not suppose to be easy. And you can´t just ask for a faster hook, if you want it faster, then they will have to reduce damage, range or even hitboxes on the map (hooking into an cliff make´s the hook go byebye).
Leave it as it is, then we will get the old pudge players back, the real "pudge´s" xD jk ofc

I MUCH prefer Pudge's Hook to this piece of crap. I hate Devourer at the moment.
