Super commando
Anyone know if this former powerhouse will be restored to even USABLE after the next patch? Aiming is completely changed and he basically does NO damage anymore. Sad too, because he used to be awesom...

I began to look at the team comps when I was playing for/against the zombies and on the PC, there'd usually be an overwhelming amount of soldiers on rooftops playing either the commando or the camo ranger. (Hell, I'd even see some paleontologists "sniping" if they could.) I'd even see some GnG games where they'd sit up there the entire game and not even try to push the point.
After seeing months and months of the same stereotypical trends playing with/against Super commandos - I just had more fun killing them. (Usually with a Future, Normal, or Jade Cactus. Just felt right to counter-snipe the predictable ones.)
TLDR: He's fun to play - but he was overtuned, causing him to be overused. (Kinda like how Rose is currently, except you could counter him)
Edit: And as for the new variants, AC Perry's pretty fun, Roadie Z's fun to mess around with if you can get close enough. I've probably had the most fun messing with the corn/citron classes on plants and Deadbeard/motocross star/park ranger for the zombies.
that Roadie man hes pretty darn good his continuous shot wipes out people quick even armour chomper.
Ok, i didnt read the wall of text you to have put as it all feels like you're getting a bit to personal with eachother.
As for the topic at hand,
Yes the Supermando (sic?) Is not as prolific as he once was but i still use him..ALOT and enjoy it. His 3 round burst can do around 36 - 42 damage at long range, infact he is more potent that the Cactus and great for distance sniping.
Personally, i'd keep him as he is, i like the changes. Feels more balanced as he was over-used and a little to strong in GW1
i still find ssuper commando fun to play, he totally wrecks Roses... one of the best anti rose variants after the cricket star
