Spell Disaster is too strong?

Does Spell disaster have to be this strong? It spawns multiple homing projectiles that each deal 80 dmg (which oneshots nightcaps and non-hardened acorns).
Old Super Brainz, the attack character, had his ability to oneshot Nightcaps with super ultra ball removed. But now Wizard, the support is just allowed to oneshot groups of squishies with no counterplay. It's "if you are caught inside this massive cast area as a Nightcap, you are guaranteed to die". At least with Old Sb you had to somewhat aim your super ultra ball at nightcaps. A wizard can kill Nightcaps without even seeing them. 

With 80s Action hero, if the Nightcap stealth's, she can throw off the homing missiles fired from an 80s Action Hero's Can't Miss-ile attack. Why doesn't it disrupt the flight path of Spell Disaster homing orbs? 

This ability is incredibly strong. In battle Arena he can completely delete most of if not an entire squad of nightcaps with the press of a button. Should it not get nerfed seeing as he is a support character and all?

  • I complain about this every time I play the game. It's so unfair how they keep going after night cap with the nerfs but there are way stronger characters in the game, smh..

  • I've had it miss a Nightcap literally standing next to me so it's not foolproof or guaranteed to vanquish anyone inside the AoE. That being said, having it do less damage per orb (say 60 or 50 for example) wouldn't really hurt it all that much. 

  • @chogath_playerspell disaster only works if plants are at point blank range (unless the homing range is further?) and only one projectile homes in on each plant. I think it's fine.
    As for how it matches up with Nightcap and Acorn, I dont see the big deal. Night Cap shouldnt be in SD range anyway, she can do the same damage at any range very reliably.
    Acorn kind of has to get close but could still stay out of SD range. SD is heavily telegraphed so be ready with his Mobility tool (I dont remember the name).
    Acorn also has Sap Trap for burst damage. Really helpful for quickly taking out Wizard.
