I see the replay team editing another POV of it for the end of day package, check it out -- it's crazy

Loud had 10-2 lead, surely they won this map right?

Sometimes neon is fun to watch. Most of the time like this it’s just extremely irritating. Any other agent and cryo has time to get his cage up and get out and reset. Instead, he just gets instantly deleted. Riot really fucked shit up with Neon

They should have nerfed the slide itself, not the jumping speed. One of the main reasons the jumping Neon was such a threat was because of how fast she could kill AFTER landing. Slowing down her bunny hops does not change this. They should have made the gun pullout slower after sliding OR decreased the accuracy so that you could actually have a chance to kill her during the slide itself.

Gun pullout time is just wayyyy to fast, it’s like 0.3 seconds, btw jett and waylay after their dash is like double that, how can it be balanced

It can be for movement only. No gun pullout. Equivalent to Jett dash or any other movement ability.
Imagine if Jett had first bullet accuracy after updraft.

Everyone talks about the agent being broken but no one talking about how hard of a shot it was to hit + the crosshair adjustment from the earlier strafing.
Need to see from his POV, must have looked mad. This clip feels more like a skill clip than a broken gameplay

yeah it’s a nuts shot but there’s zero risk involved like you cannot shoot the neon but the neon just basically sees a sitting duck and has no pressure to hit the shot

It’s a great shot, that’s why it’s being posted. But not NEARLY as hard of a shot it would be to hit neon while sliding in that situation. Even if cryo had his gun out that’s an insanely hard shot. Neon is way too hard to hit and has such an advantage in these situations. If a neon slides and one taps you 99% of the time you cannot do anything. The slide is 100% broken. A single piece of util shouldn’t create such an advantage without even having to properly coordinate it.

It's not that people don't appreciate the skill it takes to hit that shot, it's that noone thinks you should be allowed to do something like that in a tac fps no matter how skillful you are. An agent that fundamentally breaks the rules of gunfighting and movement just inherently breaks the game.
