Catapult change was bad... like pretty much every other change

Exp change was pure garbage. In terms of win-rate it didn’t really make it better or worse if you look at hotslogs for example team who first killed fort.

Also much less games played makes it less accurate compared to back then.

XP changes fixed getting stomped, but Blizzard could have done the same thing by reverting the “More Meaningful Early Game” changes from Blizzcon 2017
