Author's notes

if you were to put a straw in viscous's stupid head and sip he probably taste like lime soda no? goal of the build: harass pre fight with splatter, decay, express shot / mystic shot. Fight starts, enter ball and tank / disrupt for your team, after ball return to backline to use splatter / cube for team. If enemy has 3 debuffing heroes, u can forego the 2nd point in goo ball to get to max cube sooner. watch it live at twitch.tv/DiscoVirtuoso
