Trying to save an ally with Tether becomes a huge liability against Bloodseeker. The whole point of Io is enabling a core to reposition and kite, but Rupture punishes that movement directly. After a Rupture, Io has two bad options: either stand still with the tethered ally, making you both easy targets for the rest of Bloodseeker's team, or try to run and end up killing your own partner. This forces Io to play much more passively and makes those clutch Relocate saves far riskier to pull off, as Bloodseeker gets vision of low-health targets globally. It fundamentally disrupts how Io wants to play the map and protect his most important teammate.
