"The preview last Friday showed 50% Turn Meter on Mace’s new Basic Ability instead of 15% Turn Meter. This was a balance change that came late in the testing process and was done after the interview."I'm still excited for the rework (50% TM does seem like a lot given all the speed-boosting leaders that are out there), and understand he was still in beta, but CG isn't helping the meme that they love to nerf characters.

is it really a nerf if the playable version never had +50% TM gain?They balance tested before release, which is niceIt just shows that the information given the Hynesy was available for quite a while back

This "nerf" is actually a good thing. CG did some testing BEFORE the toon was released, realized there was a problem and is correcting it.Would you all preferred that the released it and THEN nerfed it a week or two later like they did with Qui-Gon Jinn?I admit, getting some people's hopes up with the 50% TM wasn't the best thing to do, but getting the final (hopefully) version of the toon from the get-go is definitely the way to do things.

But the meme is CG loves to nerf, and the idea that they love nerfing so much that they would nerf a character before it was even released/reworked was kinda funny to me

If the kit wasn't properly tested prior, the stats shouldn't have been given 0n friday. But no, God forbid they do a thorough job BEFORE announcing the kit.

Read the post, mate. I'm not saying it was the wrong choice

My response was basically to 24 and lenders, you made a understandable point

If instead of releasing the wrong info thru unofficial channels, if they had just waited until this week and made one correct official announcement, none of this would have happened.

CG announces the kit, waits for reactions, finds out it was too OP, then adjusted the kit… that’s the “testing” they did.
