Demogorgon Add-On Pass
Feeks like an eternity has passed since I last made a discussion about Demogorgon, so let's change that, shall we?
As the title implies, I've decided to rework some of Demogorgon's Add-Ons that I feel aren't that good, which is the overwhelming majority..sadly.
Before I get into the reworks, I want to get into why Demogorgon's Add-Ons aren't the best:
They focus too much on his Portals, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but the Portals are fine base-kit wise, so what the Add-Ons end up doing is buffing more-or-less useless stats, like sealing speed or detection range.
Now that that is out of the way, let's get onto the Add-On Pass.
(Any Add-On that goes unmentioned means I think they're fine)

Which is why I want it base-kit.
Having the choice between a normal teleport or a "destructive teleport" would be so nice

if its base kit that would be nice, as long as its an option of course.

Overall sounds like great suggestions. However I think the Rat Liver doesn't need a nerf and Deer Lung with Eleven's Soda are just too much, they would need to tone down a few notches

Rat Liver doesn't really do anything anymore, the speed increase is very small, so I'd say it's a buff more than anything.
I don't see that big of a problem with Deer Lung and Eleven's Soda, sure it makes Shred scary at close range and jungle gyms, but they're fine

I think 3.5% is very significant, I still feel a lot of difference when i play without it. And 30% faster charge speed will make Demo hit faster than aiming with old Deathslinger.

Maybe I can't tell how good current Rat Liver is because it's old iteration is ingrained in my brain, but I can't feel the 3.5% boost.
Deer Lung reduces the amount of time needed to charge a fully charged Shred, which takes 1 second, by 30%, which means it gets reduced to 0.7 seconds, which is still longer than a short-Shred, which takes 0.65 seconds, and a short-Shred takes longer to charge than it took for old Deathslinger to aim

So it doesn't increase the speed of charging of the abyss itself, it speeds up only the distance charge up after of the abyss is useable?
