Herc Needs A Nerf

I have to disagree. If Herc builds Stone of Gaea or Bulwark or Pestilence, and pops his heal before Freya attacks, he will mitigate a lot of the damage. Also, assuming both gods land all of their abilities, Hercs stun is able to disrupt Freyas pulse, meaning he can quickly burst and annihilate her. Also (although im not a Freya expert), im pretty sure you dont build that much Pen on Freya (and probably not any defense either, unless you are playing from behind) in a conquest match. Furthermore, whether it be conquest or 1v1's, a Freya will never be able to box a Herc.

Teamfights on the other hand are completely different however, a low Herc has the potential to be killed by any god.

toast freya are commonly seen with Demonic Grips and Obsidian Shards

Honestly though an intelligently built freya will poop on almost anyone in a 1v1 situation late game cause she has a lot of utility and options, she can kite you with her 2 and fatalis passive she can chase you down like a Baka with her 1 if your too close she can banish you to better position herself... Except Kali... Cause Kali

Exactly. A well-built Freya should be able to box Herc 1v1 and even beat him, but fighting him in 3v3+ matches will rip him apart since he has to divide his defenses between physical and magical which ultimately makes him weaker to Freya.

Freya is only able to outbox a Hercules easily late game. Like any hunter or hyper-carry, it's not surprising with Freya.

Hercules does need a tone down on how much DPS he has for his early tankiness and utility with his pull and strike/stun. Same could be said for Osiris to a lesser degree.

Glad I'm not the only one that thinks OPsiris needs some attention.

Here you go guys, I found the answer to all your Herc problems

@Romanians

Osiris is pretty annoying... Like Kali except strong all game and tanky.

Brawler's Beat Stick is a fine item to counter Herc, sure. But most of them are complaining about his damage. Not to mention, it's not as potent on gods that are not auto-attack based, specifically speaking Thor.

magi's blessing will help you waay more than Breastplate of Valor.

Weakening Curse nobody has mentioned.
