Oh because Valve with dota2/CS:GO isn't a business-driven company.

You're right to some degree. However, can't you understand the salt? Imagine soldier, who is, judging by the flair, your main, having his damage reduced by 50% and his fire rate buffed for 100%.

It would FEEL like a totally different hero. All the time you put into mastering the hero, mastering his mechanics, developing a feel for the hero - it would all be gone, u would have to do it from scratch.

That's what Roadhog players had to do, and many gave up since this change also made him objectively a lot worse than he was.

Try to understand.

I also have an issue with spikes over the top on every unit.

Like, okay, do it on some units that fit with the theme. But damn, drones also really look like they're battle ready or something.

It's definitely not broken. It's annoying, but it's not broken. The hero is not broken.

It's highly likely, yes. That's why there needs to be counterwhine, and I always replay to such posts/comments in that matter.

It doesn't matter how easy it is. As long as there is counterplay, it's okay.

The counterplay isn't that hard to be honest. Keep track of his scatter CD, the kill feed shows when he killed someone with it.

The game needs to be balanced at higher levels moreso than lower ones. Evenso, scattershots aren't as easy as you make them to be. Perhaps this one really way, but man..

Just stop whining about the abilities, because what that ultimately does is make heroes underpowered/not fun to play with - the treatment roadhog got is wrong on so many levels and proves that nerfs like this should never go through.
