Kez has been released, and his winrate is atrocious. Probably the lowest winrate of any newly released hero. A whopping 32% winrate on the day of release according to D2PT. About 5000 games later, the hero currently sits at a 41% winrate in the highest brackets.

He hero has already received buffs, but that might not be enough just yet. I’d say wait it out till the pros have figured him out, and until then be happy if the enemy team picks him.
