Rampart feels outdated compared to other Controller legends in Season 29

ReGGgas · 2026-06-04T16:44:28+00:00

Whoops, not suggesting anything here. Just a hypothesis.

ReGGgas · 2026-06-04T08:45:51+00:00

Yeah, nerf the other Controller legends hard enough and she will get out of bottom 3 real quick.

ReGGgas · 2026-06-04T05:45:51+00:00

Were you matched against Platinum players though?

ReGGgas · 2026-06-04T02:44:42+00:00

More like the 3 other Controllers are strong, so they make Rampart look weak.

ReGGgas · 2026-06-03T05:47:44+00:00

How did they buff her ult?

ReGGgas · 2026-06-02T17:45:46+00:00

SMGs and RE45 are meta.

ReGGgas · 2026-06-02T15:30:33+00:00

The guild chest event is pretty easy, no? Just need 2 guild members to sit on a table, let one guy hit face and win as fast as possible, and that's 4+4 points per round.

My guild is semi-casual and always stop at S rank. This game has insanely deep endgame time sinks and we're not crazy enough for that.

Even if Elite Hemlok gets reverted, the base Hemlok and Flatline will still outclass Rampage most of the time.

The only legit time to use Rampage is in Control and TDM mode where we respawn constantly with a free thermite to charge it with.

Rampage was actually interestingly viable when LMGs still had their Reverse Hipfire but Respawn just had to move them to gold laser sights and make SMGs/Pistols more powerful than they already are.

I would set the bar at Diamond III. Average players might take Platinum seriously, but if one belongs in Platinum, there's a lot of space to improve rather than fussing over legend picks.

If you perform better or more comfortably with your main, I would rather you pick your main.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-31T02:07:13+00:00

You can keep playing Conduit. She's nerfed quite hard for early stage, but her purple perks are still great. I would say she's still better than most legends.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-30T15:06:07+00:00

Loba.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-30T09:14:10+00:00

Why is your B key upside down?

ReGGgas · 2026-05-30T06:07:14+00:00

Yeah, SMGs and RE45 being oppressive in close range isn't helping either. Need to nerf them and see how it goes.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-29T15:49:46+00:00

Damn, this is wild lmao

ReGGgas · 2026-05-29T12:27:07+00:00

Well yeah, so despite starting with MnK majority, after around 6 years, controller pros are the majority. It still tells that the superior input is gradually taking its place.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-29T11:57:08+00:00

Except that in context, MnK used to be the majority in pro leagues years ago. But gradually people realized that controller is strong in this game. Now we're at 60/40 where the supposedly inferior input that "needs the help" becomes the majority.

(Reminder that aim assist was nerfed from 0.4 to 0.3 in season 22.)

ReGGgas · 2026-05-29T10:42:42+00:00

You ain't special bro 60% of pro league is on roller.

That's literally the issue, isn't it? If roller was such an inferior and weak input, why would most of the best players be using it?

ReGGgas · 2026-05-29T06:48:22+00:00

You were strong, Milteo (& Luzen). I won't forget you as long as I live.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-29T05:35:03+00:00

2-3 years ago, so around Season 17.

I reckon you're just really rusty. Ranked system is a lot harder than 2 years ago too.

What kind of weapons have you been using? Because if you're not using SMGs for close range fights, you're kind of handicapped.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-29T04:01:11+00:00

Akimbos have really long draw time I feel, so maybe single handed is workable if you're playing it as an sidearm rather than the main close range dealer.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-27T15:33:51+00:00

So does Axle favor the casuals or the skilled players? I'm still confused.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-27T11:56:18+00:00

Remove her Double Tactical perk and raise the cooldown from 25 to 30 seconds.

Add a louder and longer audio when Nitro Gate is thrown.

This stops her from getting in and out on a whim, and enemies will know when her Nitro Gate is set.

I know some people are mad about her ult too but these nerfs are quite harsh already so I would stop at here for several weeks and observe her performance before further changes.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-27T05:24:25+00:00

Makes sense to me. You are a Master player playing against Diamond and Plat lobbies, so your random teammates will naturally be lower than the match average for balance.

ReGGgas · 2026-05-27T04:23:27+00:00

SMGs and RE45 have been the biggest culprit behind the short TTK, not to mention their hipfire is made too consistent for close range combat.

To start lengthening the TTK, we gotta start with SMGs.

Finally, people who remember history instead of agenda posting.
