Shadow Strix dual-swords build & the stun-combo debate

The popular dual-swords Shadow Strix build and the community argument over whether its stun combo is overpowered. Reported Community reports (beta) ↗

The build

The most-shared Shadow Strix build is the dual-swords (Rogue) setup - high-mobility melee burst.

The stun-combo debate

Shadow Strix is widely felt to be strong (it was over-represented in the top 100), and there's an active argument over whether it's overpowered specifically because of its stun combo. Some mains deliberately play it without the stun combo and still find it effective, while others say it struggles into the Withered Knight.

Balance is unsettled in the beta - this is community sentiment, not an official statement.
