"Imp is so weak worst character" (He is very strong!)

Need I say more? I have even seen people complain that Imp is weak after the final update. He is not. This screenshot is from Team Vanquish (both teams were half high rank and half lower rank....

    @benn1nat0r Yeah, he's a skill based char for sure, but that running mech is a death machine now.

    @Gormey Yes, he is very skill based, but with the tiny hit-box, bunny hopping and the Mech still being a (now upgraded) get out of jail free card ...
    I really dislike the character to be honest. He made me quit GW2. Bundling an extremely op character variant with the preorder was just wrong.
    I dislike him not because I get vanquished by imp mains a lot, but because I can score very high with him and see others dominating lobbies with him as well. So this isn't frustration and a scenario of "git gud", as can be seen in the screenshot.

    Don't get me wrong, this level of performance with him is very rare and there are other characters that, even with the "everyone is good" Meta, are way better (Engineer, Brainium Basher, Snapdragon).

      @benn1nat0r Just a little observation I would like to make, the GW2 IMP is certainly broken, but this is due to the Z-mech having more than 150 DPS, which in BFN is only 80 DPS, 20% of armor, BFN is only 15%, missel madness being guided, and the normal Imp has 100 DPS, Gravity grenade occupying 5 continents, Impkata with a range of more than 15M, these are the factors that make him OP, in BFN he is much more fair and is not as extreme as your version of GW2.

      @benn1nat0r Hats off to you, I also refuse to use the cheap OP chars that I see a lot of max ranks crushing lobbies with...although to be honest in BFN I don't feel imp is OP so kudos to you for the 21 kill streak.

        Imp seems to be much better than he originally used to be, especially his Mech. His damage still seems to be quite luckster, however he definitely had a noticeable buff. Something I have not tried yet but noticed, because the ability refresh character upgrades have been buffed, you could probably use them (Refreshing Revive, Critical Blow, Combo) and Mech Hunter in order to get your Mech back really quickly. That seems really good. Also I find that he seems fairly decent at sniping.
