Chayula's most interesting part is the mana leech change and i could see this being used in a strong build. The nerfs to wind dance and grim feast are kinda hard on all monks, and acrobatics change is big but if you used it.
They did get some buffs: 1) flames lasting 8 seconds now means more stacks possible (but was already kinda lackluster), 2) Mana leech on non phys damage is big potentially, and 3) for the darkness - you still get access to the heralds with the new unique staff and more darkness total (but no longer games sekhamas honor loss). i doubt that they darkness nodes will be worth it though.
As long as I can use heralds with the unique staff, if they require spirit still then it's moot. If they won't though I have some darkness builds in my head.

Ascendency changes look very disappointing so far. I don't think Chayula and Witchhunter are any close to not having < 1% play rate.
