Phoenix has a great presence in Overthrow due to massive Supernova damage and being able to snatch items with Icarus Dive. Also his [[Fire Spirits do massive DOT. Has anyone done this before?

There's even more people hitting you than normal -> your egg gets killed even faster. Since you pose a threat to everyone they will all give priority to bringing the egg down.
That aside Phoenix is too squishy with too long cooldowns to be good in Overthrow.

Phoenix is one of the worst heroes in this gamemode, especially whenyu are solo. No burst damage whatsoever, long cooldowns, ulti is useless as everyone will focus you. I can't seriously think of a worse hero in this mode, maybe except Chen, Enigma or Dazzle.

Yea his cooldowns are way too massive and the egg is food. Also he doesnt scale with items, which is pretty bad i a mode where everyone is guarunteed to get gold.
