Dev balance appreciation thread

Gosh that OWL video was so cringe, so BAD
I wanna thank the devs, highly unappreciated, and yeah, they make some questionable decisions, but god it’s not this bad

There’s some bias for sure, but it’s not as huge as this OWL video, actually ridiculous
This was my rant… and appreciation, thank you so much for balancing the game instead of the owl player gosh
At least space was like the only good one for the most part

i actually had the feeling that this would change peoples mind on the devs doing the balance changes. i think maybe this is just a glimpse of what they go through each time but now we get invited to hear whats going on.

they may do this every time in some (secret) discord. i do think that some of these changes might be considered to be on some future x-card. dont quote me on that tho and you never know it might be all of them lol

if ALL the changes make it to the next x-card then that means the devs gave up ( are tired of it all and threw their hands up, type of deal ) and put the balance in the hands of high elo players and influencers

Honestly though, the devs are geniuses compared to these clowns.

The devs aren’t perfect by any means and they’ve made some pretty bad choices, but holy hell did this panel of complete idiots make the devs seem perfect.

Yeah the devs make some goofy ideas from time to time but theres a reason they work on the balance team and those pro players don’t

I’ll give them appreciation when they start posting weekly compilations of what’s posted in the secret Discord so we can see how much they’re actually listening to these pros and streamers.

2 hitscan players to determine the entirety of the DPS roster. bahahaha, this is funny. Literally needed one hitscan and one projectile player. Hell, Jake really should’ve been on there :frowning:

I hope the devs don’t like there idea for brig.
For inspire to cancel if brig dies is a hard nerf.

But yes the devs do a great job overall even if I don’t agree with some stuff.

I think they lack organization, all panelists should have all the talking points written up before hand and have a spread sheet with all the characters stats and abilities. They should have linked in as many pros as they can to get better viewpoints on the different heroes.

And they should have listened more to what the ones they brought on actually said

cough Sp9arkle cough
