trooper is very demanding of skill and execution, yet the payoff is underwhelming compared to other classes

master nether and you're a nigh-untouchable kiting machine

master omega and you're going to steamroll people in mere seconds with C X+S Z combos

master trooper and... at best you're just going to be a really annoying guy with two peashooters Not really a peashooter. Trooper can deal 400 damage in 16 seconds, if the oppenent is b-hopping of course or your at long range. Trooper can deal that much damage without taking a scratch. Trooper's E doesn't cost any mana, which the only other class that can deal ranged damage at any elevation without using mana is Tundrus, which Tundrus's Z is more of a backup weapon. And, if the oppenent decides to chase you, Trooper has two escape moves that can keep the pressure on the oppenent while not taking any damage.
