Okay, I'm using translator a little bit :)
I'll be adding one example at a time, but other videos are collected at the end of the post.

Sinclair had major issues with ALL of his abilities since release.
Let's start with the first skill: Bolts

1) Bolts(1-10 videos):
His bolts ignore enemy and object hitboxes and fly through (NOT ALL ENEMIES, I THINK ONLY TALL HEROES LIKE ABRAMS, BEPOP)
View attachment boltsTopSide.mp4

His bolts are misdirected, mostly flying into shrines and other neutrals (1, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10 videos)

After recent updates, his bolts sometimes fly through objects, sometimes crash into them (6-8 videos)

2) Assistant
His assistant also targets the shrines through the walls (13 video)

His assistant cannot aim his bolt at an enemy, object, or neutral (14 video)

His assistant since release ignores HEAD of enemy, object, or neutral (11 example, 15, 16 videos)

His assistant can aim trough object, but bolts can't do that (12 video)

His assistant has wrong auto aim (17 video)

I didn't say about skybox bug cause idc lol


3) Rabbit Hex
His hex doesn't work properly with walls xD (18-19 videos)

4) ULTIMATE bliat

Idc about Vindicta's ult, but HOW he can't kill shiv lol, first he hits with spirit, but when the ult is about to work, he hits with true(idk, like geist's ult) damage

OK, THAT'S ALL.
We can also talk about his balance.

Why does he need a long bolt travel time (2 seconds)? It's incredibly destructive in buildings, reducing damage by a factor of 4.

Why is his bolt's damage so high at 8k networth, but before 8k his bolt is so weak? 1 hit for 80 average damage on a 24-second cooldown. Talon has a 17-second cooldown, more damage, and a good upgrade.

Give Sinclair a proper balance, increase his min damage scale and decrease his max damage scale, decrease the damage-duration scale, give him a proper skill upgrade. He doesn't need the -25% fire rate (the slow will be better) on Tier 1 upgrade. Reduce the cooldown on his first skill, but change Tier 2. Increase his redirect speed, but not the initial one.
Overall, his bolts need a nearly complete rework; the bolts deal high damage, but they can easily be dodged by a jump. His bolts should have a small AoE (dome) height.

Why is the assist's uptime so short (6 seconds and 40 cooldown)? Increase the duration by at least 2 seconds or reduce the cooldown.
His assist only needs one thing... pressing 2+Mouse3 TPs your assist towards you. This won't break the balance, but it will make the character 100 times more enjoyable. Fights don't always happen where you placed him; an enemy can move behind a wall, and you're missing out on HUGE DAMAGE because your assist can't fire a bolt or shoot at him. You can't farm properly with him in the mid-late game anyway. If you move to another nearby camp, your assist will remain there.

The other skills are fine, but the first two skills... hopoo, why? Why do you hate your creation so much? It's not like he's Frankenstein!

I've been playing this hero since release, but every time I pick him up, I feel bad for him. His gameplay depends not on skill, but on luck: whether an enemy will jump, whether an assistant will be placed correctly, whether the rabbit will hit a wall pixel. The character is full of bugs and stupid decisions, but no one has fixed them a year later...

Hopoo, Yoshi, I hope you read this and do something about him in your Major Update.
