Can you please just gut Toxic pea already?
He's currently the most played peashooter (whether you have noticed it or not), and for good reason. He gets around 10 less damage on direct hits, which would almost make him worse for good players. ...

This guy really hates toxic pea. Maybe we should nerf Toxic Pea just to make him less ornery?
I don't have a problem when others use the toxic pea and there are tons of players who utility his advantage splash damage ability. But I ain't a dumb player, I know to avoid getting hit or I kill him. If you've seen mine past posts, I have never complained about Electro Brainz either. When the other team has Electro Brainz(s), I just avoid being in groups with my teammates. And if I want to take out Brainz, I re-position myself to snipe him. What's so hard of a concept is that? Sheesh. Every character I have played in GW2, I have over at least 1.5 ratio player vanquish. It seems like I'm doing something right.
Oh BTW, I ain't abusing his abilities. Toxic Pea was like this from the beginning in GW1. He never got nerfed in that game. Let's admit that you can't play him.
- Characters like this are new player friendly and if your aim stinks you can still have good time with as you can apply some pressure and get a few vanquishes. I do well with toxic pea, but I can aim, so I do even better with fire pea or ice pea or plasma or agent or even rock. Almost every variant is better if you can aim and lead targets.
Really doesn't need a nerf and if your seeing a higher representation of toxic pea it's more then likely because they're are alot of either newer players using him or alot of bad aimers.

around 20 extra vanquishes per match, just a few right?

Except electro brainz REQUIRES for you to be close to a teammate, toxic pea can just abuse that massive AOE wherever he wants. And nobody who loves a character has anything against other people playing them, because they have a certain mindset that counters it.
Yes toxic pea did only get 1 nerf (like 2 less damage on direct hits), but how does that argument in your favor? Aren't you only proving that i'm right by saying that? And where did you get that I couldn't play him?
The toxic pea needs a splash damage size nerf because all other peas splash damage size in PVZGW2. Its not fair that the pea and fire pea got a splash damage size nerf and the toxic pea still has its powers. When I see a toxic pea I try to aim at it because its so annoying to be shot at and not be able to recover health. Toxic pea require little aiming to hit a zombie and it is overpowered if you camp out with it because you can hit people behind walls easily.
- @Killerboy2807 again For people who suck at aiming they will probably get a few,or in your case 20,more vanquishes. But for those of us who can aim that just isn't the case, fire pea for example is much stronger overall for anyone who doesn't require the splash radius handicap of toxic pea.

And the game shouldn't be balanced around the good players, it should be balanced around the majority.
One thing has to be taken into account is the tighter and faster paced maps does work in toxic peas favor, but I still don't think he needs a nerf.
I like how you're defending a broken new character against a character that was created years ago and has been balanced since.
Engineer variants have the same splash as this Toxic variant, should go try them out and then comment.
