Slark essence shift waaaay OP
Seriously? Slark, with a slight feed, can begin to snowball into 1v5 and win easily. Essence shift should not pierce magic immunity. Once he hits enough, he's unstoppable, no matter the stun/nuke/teamfight.
Had SB, PA, TS, Zeus, and Razor all beating on him with every nuke/stun possible. Not only did he survive, he killed every one of us through autoattacks.
Slark is a popular pick because he is easy to play and easy to snowball with.

P.S. *this* Slark I just saw 1v5... he never once landed a pounce. Ever. So the "skill" was lacking, but made up in OP stupidity

Slark ain´t that OP, just annoying

hes a pubstomper. you wont see him in pro games because pros know how to shut people down, pros know how to gank, etc. the reason your team lost is because you had no lockdown. at all. you had 5 cores, you idiot!

He can wipe a whole team if you let him tho.
But he can be countered.
His stolen essence will disappear once he's dead or duration is over.

Yeah slark is good in pub matches but you can shutdown him pretty easily, just use your Crowd Control after his q and everything works not before not while it exactly after it. (you have to survive till then atleast)

Slark has been OP since release, they recently nerfed him but in the wrong way. He can negate a stun every 6 seconds, even if he's stunned.

He can purge a lot of ults, stuns, DoTs. You can only nuke him or manfight him down, in general. His ult makes both unreliable.

He's not easy to counter, you have to counter-pick him and that's not always an option

I really dislike him and PL, as both can do fairly well in the hands of a noob. Lethality should go hand-in-hand with skillshots of some sort. Not passives that win for you.
dont let him hit you then
