Maybe.... Maybe not. They made the change based on suspect play by devs that couldn't even find the tree in banner fall. They also changed based on what they think will be an issue once shotguns get neutered. And if it isn't an issue and blades don't continue to be a viable option then they just ruined the experience for their community. And how long will it be before they realize the mistake they made and change it back? All of this is speculation, but if they were worried about blade being OP with the change to shotguns, then why didn't they think that jug/skating/matador wasn't going to be a problem when rise was released and they nerfed shoulder charge? Also I missed the cries to nerf bladedancers on these forums.
