When is gibby being nerfed?
Can revive faster. Has a 75hp arm shield. Takes less damage. Has a dome. No character needs all of these abilities. Caustic has a really big hitbox and all he has is 15% less damage. No arm shield. N...

@Tperodactyl Caustic gas does damage, slows ppl, and he can see ppl through it. His ultimate can also be used anywhere unlike gibby. Also gibbys dome and ultimate draw a lot of attention. Though I won't disagree that gibby is a better all around legend ppl still pick Caustic more.
@Ironflower196 The gas doesn't slow people anymore and nothing about Caustic comes close to Gibby's versatility. He has the best offense, defense, and support all in one package. That's why he needs a nerf.
- @S8N_Spawn It doesn't blur anymore but it still slows unless I missed that patch note. No one really comes close to gibs versatility, he doesn't need a nerf just because he is good. His size is a major hindrance and not a fun disadvantage that's why ppl hardly pick big boys. Gibs is my 2nd pick for ranked but I don't even play him in pubs because he's not really fun. I'll give up bleed though on his gun shield because it shouldn't eat a whole kraber shot, but really that's it. He has a high win rate but is definitely not OP I mean the guy isn't even in the top half of picks.
as versatile as he is, you really dont see many of them in game anymore with new legends to choose from. with that gun shield up his movement is pretty slow
@Ironflower196 You're hilarious, if you think Gibby's arm shield isn't OP. Off the spawn, the dude lands with a blue shield, just because of his arm shield. If he lands on a blue shield, he immediately has 250HP. Any skilled Gibby player gets a HUGE advantage with that arm shield. If he has red shields late in game, he has 300HP because of the arm shield. That is just ridiculous. That arm shield 100% needs a bleed through nerf (which is coming) and an HP nerf down to 25-50HP. There is a big difference between good and OP. That arm shield is definitely OP.
@AddSolosRespawn A Caustic with that much damage ain't camping much but ok.
@Suttles10 Yeah his arm shield is pretty powerful but that didn't stop him from being a joke in Season 1.
Personally I considered Gibby to be more dangerous with a gold shield than a red one since shield cells work so well with his gun shield. He's also the least dangerous Legend on drop since Gibraltar is the least likely Legend to chase you.
He's unbeatable if you're forced to trade shots with him though.
@Ironflower196Essentially what your saying is that you main him and you cant play without him as you need his op features, we get you dude.. some people need that little help in hand to play the game.
The only ones against this are gibby mains. Everyone else is against this, even respawn a*s lickers who suck up respawn a*s all day long.
I'll even name drop a few, iTemp, Janks, Zues, Chickenman, Simply Ashton and The Gaming merchant. These yotubers are so far up respawns a*s they could absolutely f*ck the game up and still call it awesome and gorgeous and the next best thing beside sliced bread even they say he needs a nerf and they've killed heaps of gibbies and mained him too (especially Zues who mains him alot)
@DeMiGoD1988 Every opinion matters especially those that use the Legend/weapon everyone wants nerfed. Its absolutely dumb to ignore your opposition's argument by assuming bias.
I don't view Gibby as any stronger than he was after the fortified buff but if he has a high win rate its worth looking into.
If you have anything worthwhile to say I'd love to hear it but right now you're just pointlessly bashing other people.
