    Do we have any idea when this patch is coming out?  I'm very excited to see all the changes.

    First off

    Scientist Nerfs

    What the heck, I wish Marine Biologist was just faster fire rate for semi auto rather than a more powerful chemist like it used to be in GW 1 before the buffs/nerfs

    Zoologist is too similar to chemist I feel besides the full auto, but no point in nerfing it really

    Same with Chemist, why nerf him?

    Super Brainz

    Only thing I agree with is the Electro Brainz nerf, the Twister didn't need to be nerfed. Also considering how strapped it is to get a variant for Super Brainz besides Electro Brainz and Cosmic Brainz, and how rare the other two are.  I think nerfing Electro Brainz too much would be kind of bad.

    Imp: As long as they keep the hitbox consistent and not make it so you get hit when they shoot a piece of space around you

    Deadbeard

    Captain Cannon really needs that buff

    Sunflower

    Alright

    Cactus

    Pointless

    Engineer

    AC Perry is fine, if anything, I think he needs to be changed since he is too much like the Mechanic fire rate wise, make his projectiles more like concrete launcher but with freeze

    Corn

    Pop Corns buff was good, and BBQ corn nerf is okay.  The rest may be too much though.

    Soldier

    Tank and Scuba should've both been buffed if anything...

    Chomper

    Good

    Rose

    If this is anything like pre-nerf Rose, I will be pissed.

    Citron

    If anything, just reduce the recoil slightly and make Electro Citron charge faster rather than increasing damage.
