I have 1000+ matches and 500+ hours on this agent, my opinion he is honestly still the same except now instead of specific agents which can counter cypher like sova and raze , just other agents with non damaging utility to an extend can counter ur setups. A good cypher always have variations with his setups , so just make sure to always have variations withs ur setups every round.
Riot just doesn't wants you to get free kills with unbreakable trips without getting countered. So if you keep using default setups , riot is allowing enemies to counter it without excess usage of utility
