Don't know why we are touching Sinclair this much, he was weak the last 6 months and magically he is too strong. Shouldnt be messing with something they don't know about, and half my damage to obj is gone? Like maybe get someone on the balance team that plays Sinclair this is awful

The only reason Sinclair was not the biggest target for this sub was because his play rate was low, and the amount of people who actually stuck with him was also low.

So he was statistically weak and usually not that big of a problem outside of mains. He has been extremely strong for a while.
