-Reduced his attack.

(Zerreth's note: If you notice point 5 concerning his range. I have no idea what that means. When he spins, he still throw thorns and they're 1.5 times larger as well. Perhaps the actual spin attack had some range on it.....
As a visual note. Now that he's 1.5 times larger, obviously his hit box is larger but so is his spinning attack. It also looks blurry cause all neople did was increase the size of the sprite instead of redrawing and retexturing Nugol.....lazy fucks.)
