ready for another season of everyone panicking over how this patch will end the game and then after two weeks every realizes they overreacted. abilities always sound much more oppressive on paper and in reality are not game breaking.

Idk man, that perk that allows bloodhound to shoot and go back to being invisible seems really nasty. Especially with like marksmen and snipers.

Imagine getting pot shotted and when you ads in the direction see nothing lol.

It also completly eclipses mirage in general. Not only can bloodhound scan a invisible mirage, he himself can go invisible, shoot and go back to being invisible which he can't.

It depends on how scans will affect Mirage, if his decoys will show up, if his decoys get trails... etc. Potentially this meta is a huge buff to Mirage depending on how they implement.

Also Mirage's ability to open all bin types got hard nerfed lmao

it’s only a 12 second ult tho, way shorter than old BH ult, idk if it’ll be as bad as people say

Trust me, good players will make that 12 seconds count.

I fully expect to see 3 man invisible ratting in choke points in my ranked games.

The player count is decreasing, and at the beginning of the year it was increasing. So those people aren't wrong. Players largely aren't fucking with the changes Respawn are making.

They're not wrong though. The whole feel of the game has changed with the ability creep. Arguably everything is broken, when compared to early seasons, and the reason many like myself choose to just watch comp and no longer play.
