IMHO if anyone is OP its Oak but that could be because I genrelly play Erebus or TB, both of which are quite squishy.

Long tread, only read the OP.

But yeah, Reg is Imba, he should be buffed up, in his current state he is a bad choice... Oh wait, I don't agree with the OP, oh well,

I really don't think he needs buffs, at level 7 and beyond reg is quite good.

Regulus needs a buff to make him better in games smaller than 4vs4.

Every demigod can take on a tower if left alone i don´t see a problem here. And why isn´t one of your teammates harassing regulus? A Regulus on the enemy team is a free lane in my eyes since he sucks at holding flags.

And towers aren´t supposed to hold the enemy off just to slow him down to give you time to react. By lvl 5-7 towers go down anyway so whats the big deal.

If Regulus is overpowered it is definitely not from snipe. I play regulus a lot and sometimes i get level 1 snipe to help out my teammates for flagcontrol early in the game. That is because snipe have it's uses but it is probably Regulus worst skill. If anything, maim and mines are the skills that are powerful, but try to play Regulus for a couple of games and abuse snipe and range and see if you still think he's OP. It is easy to think every DG you face is OP, it's another story when you play them.

He's annoying, but not overpowered.

I've found myself lugging around 2 of the cheaper health potions whenever I can when there's a Regulus on the other team(Thanks to some advice from a thread I myself made about Regulus), since most Regulus players online seem to think Snipe is the be all and end all skill, and sure, it's a nice finisher, but a quick pop of 1000 hp and it's completely worthless.

Honestly, my suggestion is just go for him. You should either kill him, or he'll get away(provided you don't do something stupid).

Either way he's off the lane, so you've won the exchange.

Reg is a hit and run player. Yes he can outrange a tower, but it takes some time to take it down, unless your already carrying Mage, Ash and Slayers Wraps.

OP, are you playing with high gold or something? Lvl 2 reg is not a tower killer any more than a Lvl 2 beast/rook.

As soon as another DG shows up it's time to run....

Beast is more annoying than Regulus.

easy to play at average/above average

hard to play at top, like about any other DG, the difference is other demigods are way harder to play at average lvl, being most of them melees mainly

So much fail by OP in this thread... 

1) Most played != Most powerful. Most played = Most popular. Which DGs are actually strong and weak is entirely and only dependent on how they are played at high levels of competition. The most played stat is completely corrupted by the results of average/noob games. 

1A) In fact, this fact has come up before in a previous thread. Why do Forces of Light always lose Pantheon? Because too many players pick Reg, and then get horribly slaughtered by UB/LE from Forces of Darkness. 

2) Any DG can take down a tower if you ignore him for long enough. But no DG can take down a tower if theres a DG defending it, unless hes been fed all game or something. Considering that most towers are in the creep paths, where you should always have people anyways (to gain experience, gold, hold flags, etc) its not especially difficult to prevent your towers from getting raped. 

3) Regulus has some decent abilities, but as others have said, hes below average compared to the rest of the cast. Sedna, UB, Oak, and LE are generally better. 

Imo, Regulus needs a speed buff. He can't hold in close combat, so he should have more speed at least.

He's not OP, imo, he's a bit gimped, pretty hard to master and absolutely NOT FOR NOOBS.

P.S. Absence of interrupts also doesn't make him better.
