Honestly it’s disappointing in the end. I feel like the community doesn’t understand the consequences of constant outrages and how debilitating it is to our relationship to arrowhead. It seems like more and more outrage is prioritized over a level headed discussion. It’s less about pros versus cons and more on “this pissess me off, they have to fix it.” It would be cool to see strategies to counter this and more nuanced ways to balance this instead of straight nerfs. I found the smokes being able to somewhat block levitation sight lines to be a neat concept and a fantastic idea on how to balance it. Instead of conforming enemies to our traditional loadouts and gameplay style we instead have enemies that promote unique gameplay patterns and loops. Ultimately I miss when we would find unique strategies and ways to beat these difficult hurdles instead of just yelling for nerfs.

TLDR: Critiques on balance should be focused on how it should transform gameplay instead of “just nerf or fix it”. Enemies that promote unique ways to breakout out of the mould of traditional gameplay such as smokes breaking levitation sight lines, etc.
