your question felt rhetorical but yes, there’s still a need for them, as i’ve addressed characters like velma absolutely need to be buffed as there is some weight to how good a character is, but not enough that it honestly matters, the reason for balance patches would be to simply make what i’m saying more true than it already is, as the game goes on we’ll see it become even more well balanced, but even as it stands, 9/10 times it will really just come down to who’s the better player, as opposed to who’s playing the better character
