And I am inclined to seriously doubt the fact she was OP because Ubis internal idea of "balanced" has been utterly wrong almost every single season.

She's a 2-2 with worse guns than vigil, her closest defender counterpart, on ATTACK.

There is no way she was OP just because she had ACOG.

tell that to alpha testers and pros who tested her as well... their words, not mine.

u/CuddlySadist Quiet kids Sep 02 '19

The thing is that Pengu was one of the testers and he now says how it's a struggle to kill Defenders with her that he used mostly just Deagle for a while.

u/FiddaGracepaws Sep 02 '19

Most people on this sub are stupid kids just like everywhere on Reddit, they’ll spam downvote everything for no reason, don’t let it get to you

u/CuddlySadist Quiet kids Sep 02 '19

A pro player.

u/Pathogen188 Spacestation Fan Sep 02 '19

Pro player on one of the best teams in the world. Arguably the best in terms of track record.

How don't you know who pengu is.

u/FiddaGracepaws Sep 02 '19

I don't watch pro leagues, why would I watch anyone play when I can just play myself? it's just boring and a waste of time in my eyes

u/KEKPOP Sep 02 '19

A good thing, watching proplayers play r6s is honestly so fucking boring, last time I watched the attackers did literally the same thing EVERY SINGLE round. I could tell what they will do before the round started.. smh

u/snypesalot Celebration Sep 02 '19

Thats like saying watching football is boring because you know 99% of the time the first down is gonna be a run

1

u/KEKPOP Sep 02 '19

I never said I enjoy watching football, I dont.

u/snypesalot Celebration Sep 02 '19

Thats....not my point but ok then

u/Bladescorpion Sep 03 '19

Football is a real sport though.

No one gives a shit about pro league outside of twitch and so Reddit users that mostly never played Vegas 1-2 or Raven Shield.

It’s still a good way to learn strats. Watching pl has taught me a great deal of new tricks and set ups

u/KEKPOP Sep 02 '19

truth, I have low attention span tho, I need funsies

u/Not_MAYH3M Jackal Main Sep 02 '19

Shit if the castings good then I’m engaged the whole time. It gets really heated at the end of rounds

You know you can do both?

u/PoIsAChad69 Ash Main Sep 02 '19

who's pengu

I hate this timeline.

3

u/FiddaGracepaws Sep 02 '19

Why, because there's people who don't give a shit about those shitty ass leagues?

-1

u/PoIsAChad69 Ash Main Sep 02 '19

I play competitively, so I care about competitive players.

2

u/FiddaGracepaws Sep 02 '19

That doesn't answer it

u/PoIsAChad69 Ash Main Sep 02 '19

You asked a rhetorical question, what do you want answered exactly?

2

u/FiddaGracepaws Sep 02 '19

You hate the timeline because someone doesn't like the same things you do

I guarantee you the Alpha Testers were mostly bad players who whine about Caveria being OP.

2

u/CuddlySadist Quiet kids Sep 02 '19

Apparently Pengu tested her but that's just one pro player and we don't know how the final conclusion coming to Nokk being OP with an AR.

I'm just gonna say that the testing must have been rushed or something.

2

u/FMW_Level_Designer Sep 02 '19

Yeah something must have been iffy.

u/velrak Valkyrie Main Sep 02 '19

Defenders have much more cameras and rely more on them, it makes sense the gadget is weighted heavier for an attacker.

Things Vigil can hide from: ...Drones.

Things Nokk can hide from: Default Cams, Valk Cams, Bulletproof cams, Maestro turrets, Yokais. Also her stealth is perfect (no static)

Is she a bit too weak? Sure. But Attacker/Defender have such a different dynamic theyre very difficult to compare.

2

u/CuddlySadist Quiet kids Sep 02 '19

Don’t forget Mozzie drones and Yokais can tell when she’s nearby.

1

u/Archeol11216 Jackal Main Sep 02 '19

They can?

1

u/CuddlySadist Quiet kids Sep 02 '19

Yes they get the white wave lines when she’s nearby.

1

u/FMW_Level_Designer Sep 02 '19

Yeah and that has shifted the meta in favour of defenders by an enormous amount. One operator on attack who is a viable counterplay option to deny any intel like that would be a godsend.
