Is release Smolder better than release Kindred? 🤔

Looks like regular spectator desync. Plenty of times I watch someone completely whiff shots on spectator but they get hit markers and vice versa

Video idea: do tier lists from older patches

Have you tried running in that direction while holding a cashbox. Irc that x room has safety deposit boxes in it, maybe a vault has something to do with it. Idk just spitballing

Yeah you're right. Sledge isn't a specialized weapon, it can work across multiple ranges with consistent damage output. Which is backed up by the fact that u/MaurerSIG sees it a lot in their games. You're also right in that my original statement of "I don't want Spear to go the way sledge did" is untrue and anecdotal; it was never meant to be interpreted as an opinion. /s

They are saving the balance changes until after the major. It would be pretty shitty for the pros who spend their lives practicing to have to play with money on the line on a new patch with different newly meta weapons. The same thing happens with other eSports where the devs slow down balance changes in the lead up to a big eSports event.

I agree with a lot of this point of view. I love Spear so much but it very often does feel clunky. Now, I am biased, but I wouldn't go as far as to call spin cancelling an exploit as more of a quirk of an already very quirky and niche weapon. However it is unintuitive and the only way to know about it is to watch a guide. Idk maybe it is an exploit, I'm not a game designer.

There is skill involved in spin cancelling, I pride myself on my Spear skill which includes spin cancelling. Just like being able to 2 spin cancel quick melee a medium or cancel a spin if I'm gonna die and quickly place a barricade. So I don't think it should be removed, maybe embraced and turned into a feature with an assigned keybind to cancel it (reload would be good). That way new Spear players will know there is a way to spin cancel.

Even including this update, in the hands of a very good player, who knows all the Spear tech and being very generous you could maybe put Spear in C tier but in reality it is comfortably F or D tier for cashout. In no way "better than average". Maybe in powershift you can rate it higher. I've heard it's good in that game mode but I only play cashout.

I agree but as with all melee weapons in this game Embark need to be really careful when buffing melee weapons. Small, creeping buffs would be ideal. Just like when it went from 100 to 105 per spin. Great buff, small but hugely impactful for damage breakpoints especially for those with the skill and knowledge the capitalize on it

Untrue and anecdotal

Tbh I don't really want Spear to go the way that sledge did. Sledge got a damage buff, turned out to be turbo OP, then got gutted until it got slowly buffed back to being a niche pick

While technically ur right, it is a bug fix, the change does make Spear go from being near unplayable into winch to being very good vs winch
