shit update

The variety of skill combinations and area control tactics are what makes the game interesting to watch, but this update makes it boring to watch.
It's going to be the same fate as the tanks in OW.

Huh??? Astra made VCT 20x more boring

No

double smokes meta incoming no cap

"but this update makes it boring to watch"

I agree with the nerfing of Astra, but it should have been done in a more gradual manner.
Also, the Brim buff will accelerate the rush-based game.
NA Pro is so far behind EMEA in terms of strategy that they complained about the characters and tried to create the environment they wanted, but they will surely complain about this environment too.
They are now a tier 3 region, inferior even to APAC. (Except for C9 etc).

Sad to say, but let's hope it gets stronger.
From the mainevent, it looks like it's going to take a lot more than that.

I think all smokes are balanced now but double smokes meta will come. Astra is best smokes imo tho. Brim kinda overrated by himslef

Zaddy brimstone voice makes me little wet hihihi...

If a weaker region isn't qualified to talk about other regions, then someone who can't be a Rediant isn't qualified to make fun of the pros here.
I believe that discussion and opposition is a natural part of the sport and is allowed as long as it is not over the top.
You have to understand that this is an entertainment.

I see, you have a strong commitment to calling other regions ”Tier 3”.
Wish you find any other entertainment one day.
I just wish you to remove the Japanese banner coz it's embarrassing.

The game will change forever now, it will look more like the end of 2020, even if astra is kinda trash. Viper will still be meta.

But will not change anything in ranked, nobody knew how to use astra anyway so just pro play is gonna be affected.
