Scientist is overpowered

the Scientist classes gives too much damage at close range.when i am playing multiplayer.I have seen 10 scientists and there is 3 scientists characters i want to talk about. (Marine Biologist) :He should not shoot so fast,but slower i think.And slower reloading,and not so much damage. Chemist :He should shoot slower.And not give too much damage.Zoologist: He should not have so much damage,and he should not shoot so fast. thats all i have to say.

And shotgun scientist variants give NO damage outside of close range. Therefore, they are not OP.

The problem is not the scientist but an incompetent team. There are plenty of ways to deal with a scientist. Learn them.

If you are one-on-one at close range with a scientist, you will likely lose. So, either take them down from a distance or group up with someone else. Goop them, EM them. Always take the scientist out first so healing can't happen.

There are ways to counter Scientists easily when going 1v1. Some classes are countered by Scientists, but it doesn't mean that you should submit and let them get free vanquishes.

Peashooters can go on rooftops and take huge advantage of their splash damage. There are some rooftops reachable for Scientist's Warp.

Sunflowers will have to immediately target the Scientists on sight and be ready to go Sunbeam if you happen to see a Scientist beginning to warp unless you're very accurate at shooting.

Chompers can Goop which can cripple the Scientists effectively making them easy targets.

Cacti will have to set up Potato Mines ahead of time if you encounter Scientists. Use Tallnuts to make them circle around if they close in.

Citrons can survive all the hits. When in doubt, use your EMPeach to counter them.

Corn can use Husk Hop as they warp in to you.

Roses will have to use Goatify if the Scientists get to close.
