Oh believe me, the last few days I've been saying that you could delete the word "Void" from Void Assassin and the class would barely change outside of deleting Detogate, Voidgate and Black Bolt, all of which are entirely lackluster anyway. The rest is literally just purple colored generic assassin skills that are fluffed by being 'void'. Black elixir and wash away? Alchemy concoctions. Vanishing Strike? Could easily just be hanging-esque movement. Cutthroat is just an ordinary dagger skill. Fray isn't even unique to VA, a bunch of other things apply it.
But everyone seems content with it just being the dagger class. So it seems like it'll just be the "dagger" class. Assassin--not Void Assassin.
What I liked about my idea is that it not only acts as a means for VA to have "blink" without just copy and pasting it to VA's skill tree if they choose to void gate twice in succession to move, but it encourages planning and ramps up the VA's threat. The more void gates they'd have around the map, the more free mobility they'd have. They could map out the order they want to place gates to have a route through the battlefield, cover corners, etc.
