Airswipe goes out the widest of basic abilities, airsweep has the most flexibity and control on where it can go, and suffocate everyone complains about it when it's up and op, there's literally no getting suffocate to be worthy for people.It does when it can be turned off, making it unreliable because it might not always be there, and speed wasn't purposely put in, but was more discovered through creativity, and speed just depends on your layout and reflexes, not the element. Airswipe, nor airsweep, nor suffocate, have a viewable advantage in range compared to other elements counter abilities.
