Restrict crystal lotus from narrow corridor map

As per title, his repeated stomp and wide crystal line aoe is impossible to avoid in narrow corridor. Just got RIP to one in verdant outskirts map.

It has already been toned down considerably.

EDIT:
When we first met him, we were slightly surprised by Crystal Lotus [he was even stronger then], but that was all that was remarkable about him.
→ And he has beautiful colors. :slightly_smiling_face:

Nah, not about his damage. Damage is fine as we can react to it, provided the space to avoid it. But his placement in the map can be unfair. In some narrow corridor, his line AOE width= narrow corridor width. He also blocked his part of the corridor with the slam. There is no counterplaying that and his damage will stacked up fast. Maybe wait for his fatass to move slowly to other part of the map which is not fun.
