Not sure if you were around during the old Phoenix's time - probably not. Back then I was playing with a few friends in the Warcraft 3 map of Dota and the sun ray was completely overpowered - it would keep on shooting for as long as you wanted. I had a buddy play as Crystal Maiden and he'd freeze enemies while I'd shoot them down with my ray - we called it the Microwave Ice Oven. It was amazing. Phoenix is a great hero.
Yeah, in the original dota days I was too discouraged to play. ("Noob in game, remake and ban noob") A forever-beam sounds absurd. CM and Pheonix still synergize great if you're going for wombo-combo team-fights.
I like CM too, but I feel like she's harder to "comeback" with if you do poorly with her in the early-mid game. Also, enemy players tend to be more familiar with her thus better-equipped to deal with her.
