You're completely right.
I'm mostly a Plant player and lover, because Plants have a huge handicap in a game without chat text and i feel the necessity to give them some love.
Plants require a decent amount of skills. When i say "skills" don't think about only Mechanical skills like those who requires playing a Plasma/Law/Agent PeaShooter.
I'm saying they need a huge amount of things like awareness, resource managament, decision making, teamworking and so on.
For example when i play plants i'm more likely to see what team comp i have and try to fit it.
If i lack ice i pick ice. If we lack Electro i pick Electro. If we lack a tank i pick a tank. If we lack long range i pick a Cactus.
And mostly of plants are less forgiving to play, cause they are immobile, think about a Cactus or a sunflower. Even Corn with Hush Hop you have to watch carefully where are you going to husk hop since you can just go straight ahead.
This is a problem of this community, they just want every character and every class become easier to play. Same happened to IMP.
Now some of you can argue about the fact "oh i can hit an IMP even with a Cactus"
And ever do I. Because an IMP with 75 is pratically a class affordable for EVERYONE, when back in time was designed an an high risk high reward character for veterans.
While i love Plants i have nothing to hide that Imp is one of my favorite class too, and those with 85Hp are really too much.
Not too much is a noob hand, all the casuals that are spamming Imps are just messing the game a little bit with their little Hitbox and making a the game a little bit hard for those without AoE or Blast Radius.
What is really making the game a completely mess are those veterans spamming Imps, like me.
What i see, is people playing Imp throwing gravity grenade at the first enemy they come across and walking in a straight line. YES. I SAID ... WALKING.
WALKING IN THE FRONTLINE TO REACHING YOU.
OK.
First: this class is a sneaky ninja
Second: IS NOT A FRONTLINE
Third: save ur FKN grenade to save your ***.
Fourth: I NEVER WALK. NEVER. I CONTINUE SPAMMING THE DOUBLE JUMP ALL THE MATCH.
The only thing that i say is that is not hard to go on killing spree without ever getting touched. But whenever i just met an hard counter.. like.. i dont know.. toxic peashooter? My Hp are so high i have an undecent amount of HP to 1vs1 him.
Community have to accept the fact this class is not a class affordable for everyone, EXACTLY like agent pea or law.
Now my little drake will get a special nerf WHEN WAS PERFECTLY, and just a good variation of a class before the rosenerfpatch.
What i say? Don't only they will make Imps HP to 50, but probably also some nerfs to gravity grenade and Cone and Little Drake fore sure.
SAME IS HAPPENED TO ROSE WHEN WAS NOT NECESSARY.
SAME WILL HAPPEN TO S.BRAINZ, when all they have to do is revert the changes
AND SAME IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO CITRON NEXT PATCH
Community is crying for a clunky and paper shield character when is perfectly fine.. on PC is picked frequently together with Chomper, because they can hold scientists burst and have a decent match up against Mechs/imps/S.Brainz ... YES on Origin i rarely see those USELESS SPAM OF CORNS. BBQ is great.. okay. But you can't think to win with 6 BBQ in your team. That useless character DOESNT FIT your team comp in ANY WAY.
A rambo playstile character in a plant team is worthless. Is okay to have a couple of those, but picking more than 2 BBQ is giving free victory to enemy team:
And that's why far, whenever i see more than 3 Corn i just trollpick because i know im going to lose.
I don't want to say this game is PERFECTLY balanced, because a perfectly balanced game is a joke, i will talk about a perfectly balanced game when every class and every variation has some strategic and pick value, instead, there are a lots which are pratically never picken, but is not SO unbalanced like people claim to say.
I'm pretty sure that some minor changes will eventually create a perfect game. wihout just killing characters that is annoying to play against.
