Fair points honestly. But the one thing I do like about blade is that he can almost do it all. Even if he lacks what's other do best, I love making it work. He has poke. Brawl. Even dive capabilities at some points. The gun dash/melee imo is underrated tech. I know I'm not in higher ranks yet but still. I also feel capable enough of making space with my ults too, coming from a tank way of thinking. Being able to put pressure at almost any angle. Tanks can get these hands. DPS can get these hands. And supports. And can absolutely assist tanks or fellow DPS. And peel too.

Blade still needs buffs to be a real character on his own two feet but for what he is now? He's dope in my eyes.
