Tennis star needs a nerf and Moto-X Star needs a buff

I have recently mastered tennis star to master rank and i can tell you this with absolute certainty he's a little too strong or a bit OP. He's way better compare to any other all stars. he has good fire rate and good damage altogether but the most important aspect to his ability is to move so fast while firing his primary weapon. with that he can dodge most of the attack which no any other all stars can do. all other all stars while firing moves very slowly which allows plants to damage them more accurately but that doesn't apply to tennis star. not only does he have good fire rate but also do good damage, about 27 to 36 dps at close range. he can also move around as fast or maybe faster than sunflower. he's like commando pea with 200 health and faster fire rate. my suggestion is nerf his damage output to maybe 5 or 6 damage per hit at close range. also the damage upgrade for this character doesn't increase his damage at all so that needs a fix. i did a test with it. no changes to his damage at close range.

 

Now with moto-X star. i think his mud effect needs to happen way faster or maybe immediately the moment you are hit. the sound effect of roadie engineer happens immediately you are hit so why not moto-x star. of course the longer you are hit, the longer the mud effect will last. i have not master this character yet so i maybe missing some upgrades that may be of benefits to my description.

  • Honestly, if the Tennis Star is to be nerfed, his HP going down to 175 or 150 would probably be a better idea. He overheats quickly - though not as fast as the hockey star.

    I feel like the a superhero when I play Tennis Star. Mostly because of his ability to juke attacks with ease. His damage is good, but I feel it's a bit random sometimes at various ranges. Making him play as he is now, just frailer, seems like an interesting tradeoff.

    Agreed with the Moto X Star though. The mud effect should apply a little faster. He's a fun character with a great design, but his gimmick needs to be a lot more reliable. He's basically a weaker alternative to the Goalie Star as he is right now.

    I think the concept of the Tennid-Star was flawed from the beginning. He's like the Day 1 Tomislav from TF2. As much as I hate to say it, he needs a major DPS and/or HP nerf like the Hot-Rod Chomper, because everybody sane knows that the All-Star has huge DPS and a bit lower DPS in exchange for so much speed is just too good.

    Hp nerf, that's a good start but 175 hp is too little. it has to be 150hp. even hot rod chomper has 50 less health compare to some normal 175 health chompers.

    Sure to the buffing of one.

    No to the nerfing of the other. If only because I rarely see any All-Stars on the Zombie side, if I do, they usually die fairly quickly because of everyone being able to kill safely from a distance or being able to out maneuver him.

    The tennis star is fine the way he is. He is cool because like a tennis player that he is, he is fast and doesn't slow down while aiming. If they keep nurfing every character that is slightly different than the others, every character will be the same. How boring will that be if everyone does the same damage, same health, same speed and same abilities.

    I also think the moto x start is fine. He is my 2nd favorite allstar.

    And once you've mastered someone and have the upgrades, they are supposed to be good. Speed, damage and over heat upgrades are the best.

    No one needs nurfed. I just think the weaker characters need a buff.
  • To be honest i feel the all-stars need a small nerf in general least when it comes to their sprint tackles and imp punts. It is very annoying always being almost instantly killed by these two attacks and in GW1 it was the worst thing ever when half of the zombie team are using all-stars. That imp punt is just like a instant quick grenade that you have no chance of dodging
