PCT is actually good now

[Loggos]

With a bit of strategic pacing you can insta-cast pretty much all your motifs now (after using both charges at the start of the fight your smudge and muse CDs more or less align).
(At the same time it makes using smudge slightly more strategic which is fun. Not much but still enough to be noticeable imo
Also, I previously held the opinion that motifs shouldn't be insta-cast to make the gameplay more strategic. But I was blind. Blasting people with moogles and madeens left and right has converted me.).

Motif cast times are slightly faster, too.

You now have a multi-target silence and a multi-target stun (previously heavy and bind).

Your CMY combo has fast cast times and does 24k damage.

The damage of most of your muses has been doubled.

Your RGB combo does 18k damage. Together with insta-casting muses and having easier access to Moogle/Madeen in 1v1s now (plus the old white comet heals, shield and smudge) your survivability and ability to duel has increased significantly.

Your LB does more damage, has a big frontloaded heal and gives a team-wide damage buff.
(The frontloaded heal is the same as the old 8k heal + HoT so I wouldn't say that aspect is better per sé. But it does turn the LB more into one big emergency button when contesting a point which could be good to (partially) counter groupwide LBs like SMN or DRG.)

All in all, it’s so much faster, smoother and more fun now.

I’d say that’s a glow-up. Personally I love it, heh.
(I’ll enjoy it while it lasts until the next rework/round of nerfs comes around.)

Good luck in ranked, everyone!
