and the first point simply proves for me that you apparently didn't read anything
Ummm. No... I read it.. and I don't agree.. I routinely see most telesnipes dying achieving nothing...
But then where are your arguments? Yes, the Cybran ACU often dies, yet the arguments were that one team has to invest 10k+ mass into teledef only because a Cybran-ACU exists in the other team (And no, "Scout" is not the correct answer to this). Or the argument that even if the ACU dies, in a fullshare game (which is the primary mode due to TMM and the mode the game is balanced towards) you lose one ACU but kill an entire airgrid.
Okay, you disagree, but then please just don't say "tele-snipe didn't need nerfing", but bring up the arguments. Why does it not need a nerf with the said points?
Also please note that the game is balanced towards high ranked games. Meaning if a telemazer didn't achieve smth in like <1500 ranked lobbies, it does not automatically mean it is bad in general.
I DO follow the "reasons" but they're often debatable. One person's OP is another's "part of the game".
This is exactly the reason why this exists. But then please actually bring up the points, so far the only argument with Cybran-telemazer was "the ACU dies" which was not ignored while talking about the balance change.
Ofc if you're unhappy with something, you can always just state it. But for the balance team knowing a person is unhappy, but not knowing what exactly is wrong with balance change XY doesn't really help. Problems exist, the most current one being Cybran which can't reliably defend against sniperbots, this can not be the status quo of like "Damn I got Cybran on a t3 land map. I guess I'm fucked." and things have to be changed due to competitive reasons. The how can be discussed and this is what balance talks are for.
