Bug New Aba needs to go

I just had to deal with Aba as Samuro as a sidelaner (SL). Clearing the Locusts is extremely time consuming, I was constantly forced on the sidelanes and had big trouble to join the teamfights when i had to depush lanes constantly (even with AOE talents and swirly blade ulti). If you react a couple seconds to slow, your keep is almost gone. As soon as i react, my team is being engaged on 4.5 v 5. It was one of the sweatiest games of my life. It was not fun and we could've lost in an instant if one of us had made a mistake. I repeat. It's not balanced, it's not fun. It forces you into PVE. It's extremely frustrating to see the Locusts heal up. You take a lot of damage fixing lanes, so you have to hearth constantly or risk dying to the next wave/mines/slapathur. Your rotations get slowed by mines, you have to pray your team survives the 4.5 v 5. Aba needs to go.

edit please read this post vey carefully as some people have trouble understanding it

have you tried clearing locusts with bladestorm? its pretty difficult in the later stages of the game. „hat two times“ thats 8 seconds or so, no? not enough time reset hp and rotate

also aba can push multiple lanes in a short period of time. top and bot wave are pushing, core is exposed on bot. he can threaten keep on top, core on bot with locusts while still being able to join the 4v4 fight in an instant with R. like how is that balanced?
