Lis nerf - why, when, and what?
No mention of the previously mentioned nerf to Lis against air vehicles in the 6.2 patch notes. So I'm wondering 3 things: Why? Lis is the ONLY infantry effective counter for air vehicles! Wh...

@MADMAC50K For Infantry Based Counters, I don't any viable counters Besides Liz, so I don't see why they just buff them instead of nerfing liz
FXM-33 AA Missile is one option that really confuses people since the one job it's meant to do flares block it's lockon ability. Since this was always the case in all BF games, it's relegated as a DETERANT than a Lethal Aircraft counter and can only kill a helicopter if the pilot doesn't know how to flare or if that pilot got unlucky with flare cooldowns
Soflam also has the same problem with flares being powerful in 2042 that it takes a significant amount of time and effort to try and let a rocket even hit a target, overall a big mess of jank and issues with SOFLAM, Tracer Dart etc.
Rao is an option but I've seen few people run him since the rework. Not a fan of the changes but it does hurt heli and Jet mobility technically but the soflam jank also applies here.
Other options like Boris Turret and Crawford's turret only tickle aircraft and really not meant to take them out fully.
Dumbfires like the M5 and RPG are the only other good option but require a lot of skill and practice to use, but of course sometimes aircraft are out of range and the velocity of the M5 and RPG decreases the odds to hit it at range where you can barely touch them but they can kill you.

Rao is just amazing at messing with all the vehicles atm.
The reason people do not use him enough is as usual DICE is expecting the players to discover that something is good instead of giving them some tutorial course on why something is good and how to use it.
