Abstract: Lichens have an overpowered ability in that their health is brought back up to max whenever they consume another lichen regardless of various factors.
Suggestion: This can be remedied as such:
Lichens are fine, there one of the few things that keep me playing the game on a weekly basis. It's not overpowered, granted it does make much sense, but it not to hard to avoid, You could either kill the small lichen, create different merge piles, ore let them all be merge in to one and then kill it cant heal if there no other lichen around.
We have a lot of shadow+poison weapons now. Maybe poison should block merging.
JK cant heal absorb minis while poisoned. And he is the only jelly that can hit experienced player.
JK can absorb minis while poisoned, but poison turns the heal into damage.
how about: if the lichen is in the colony stages, little lichens heal it when it's injuried, and if its health goes over the cap, it gets bigger. it could solve some of the frustration of "darn, it was almost dead and now it's a gigant lichen colony".

Lichens are not OP, as a matter of fact, they (might) need a buff compared to everything else, but wolvers need the buff more.
I don't claim the Lichens are overpowered, only that their ability is flawed.
Overpowered? Not only does it make sense (absorbing something makes you regain health), lichens aren't really that hard until they get to Giant stage anyway. If you're dying to normal lichens, it's likely not because they have too much health.
