How do you know? Were you in the match with them? If they were running for their lives how did the Ret catch up to them?
A lot. The OP has two teammates. Did they just sit and watch the ret get everything loaded up? They didn’t do anything to proactively prevent the death?
You have to look at a spec as a whole. It’s okay if Ret does good damage if their utility / defensives take a hit. And their utility / defensives are taking a sizeable hit with this nerf.
