10 years agoKernel corn
I don't know what has been wrong with you guys lately, but you need to wake up. The first was so much better, it was balanced, not a lot of bugs. This game is just unbalanced garbage. Everytime you gu...
Corn, especially BBQ Corn, is heavily overplayed - and it doesn't help that so many of them are terrible players. The class itself is practically a flawed crutch - hes great in small engagements, killing things somewhat quickly, but in larger ones, he falls quickly against the tide of superheroes, z mechs, and scientists. Spamming him won't help you win objectives as he's too slow and he lacks the utility to get your team there.
He's not as broken as Electro Brainz, but the BBQ Corn is certainly overtuned compared to the other variants. While I'd love to see the other Corn variants get some love, I DO NOT WANT ANY more months of straight up Corn spam. So yeah, nerf BBQ Corn at least - maybe roll Corn's health back to 125/135. I know that at least Citron is getting some love in the next patch - probably a few other classes too.
Also, Soldier is fine. He's a smaller target than corn and much more mobile. (Try rocket leap for funsies on a few variants)
Kernel corn is one of the most flop in the plant team. Please don't even compare one of the solid class in the entire game.. the foot soldier with that scrub.
Kernel is barely played on PC and if you try the character yourself you'll understand the reason.
First.. FootSoldier and Kernel ARE NOT COUNTERPARTS.
Footsoldier is backliner/rooftliner (lol) damage dealer. He is a jolly, he can stay in the front of the fight or the back while all -star mech and s.brainz makes your job easier.
Footsoldier has one of the best move in the game.. the rocket leap. It's a "jack of all trades" abilty that allows him to safe his *, or go in a next good attacking position, also you can use that twice consecutively, this ability itself is MORE important that have 25 HP + because he will eventually save you more often.
Kernel is the actual plant frontline together with the Citron.
BBQ is overvalued and the reason why is considered OP it's because has low recoil and fire dot and because Imp are abused. If Imps weren't abused, BBQ weren't considered overpowered. Infact BBQ is the only good variations of this class.
Pop has a bad damage range drop off.
Mob is kinda a joke.
And not to mention Kernel Corn. Have you seen his bullets dispersion? Or the recoil when moving and shooting? Or the damage range drop off?
He should be a damage dealer, but the only thing that do damage in his kits are those skills, which are pretty situational.
Stuck Shot is not any good since Zombies are extra mobile and don't tend to root themselves to the ground.. still decent against Mech though.
Husk Hop seems cool, but the fact you can't control perfectly your position and shoot what you want makes this move very good in teamvanquish when doiung 1vs1 but more like a kamikaze move in turf.
When i play Imp i'm more likely to hate every single BBQ Corn, because of low recoil and fire. Pratically what i mean. BBQ corn is the only good corn, not the overpowered one. His entire kit depends on his weapon rather than his "random damage skillset" experience
Also he doesn't deserve HP nerf, more likely some variations still need a buff.
The reason is overplayed on console is because casual wants character that can do all by theirselves and don't have to rely on his team-mates.
I would like to see him nerfed too so people will not abuse him, but nerfing a character that is already bad because i hate it it's kinda selfish.. that's why in my thread i suggested some cool survival options for other plants.
