I have to say I have adapted to the faster TTK and now it feels more intense and hot to fight, it is more rewarding when you win too. It's kinda making shielding an uncommon thing but whatever.
Also I see number of players on Steam are finally starting to pick up on the upside.
The squirmisher update midseason is really great too I love I can play the ranked game in a different way without waiting 3 months everytime for some new content.
Good job overall! I am aiming for a first Master badge since my friend is back to the game.
