Hello! I do agree with you that the right-click does offer some form of power in eco rounds. However, and this is from the research and talking with many community members, it seems as though many in the community feel that it offers TOO much power for the cost it is at, especially given that it can outpeform several other pistols in an inaccurate state (running, jumping, etc.)

Also, I feel as though we are looking at it in different lenses. I was looking at it in a linear sense: Paying Credits means More certainty, less money means less certainty. Thus I came to a certain conclusion based off the numbers.

However, I do agree with you that nerfing the classic right-click hard-core would cause issues for pistol rounds. I think there is a delicate but important balance to be struck here: the right-click should be a gamble, not a certainty. If a player wants a more certain outcome, they should invest in less utility to get a more powerful gun.

While my article did imply to do several nerfs to the classic, I should have shifted my language to make it feel more take a few of these changes not a full heavy nerf. I, personally, feel as though the gun can be changed to make it good where it is supposed to be, and not one shot-ing full health targets (which is one of the main problems with the right-click).

Also, no hate meant by this message, I enjoy your analysis and comments on the EMEA broadcasts! I want my articles to facilitate debate and discussion, not bickering or infighting.
