I don't know if this is intended but, bebops hook no longer goes through FRIENDLY Candle Troopers. Instead, the hook just stops and consumes the ability, doing nothing.
Wondering if the changelog patch notes were a mistake or not. I also assumed friendly neutrals did not block hook seeing as it specified ENEMY troopers. This should be fixed or the patch notes reworded. If its intended though, hook is officially useless unless there are zero neutrals around.
