Special LFRs have dominated for an absurd amount of time and are the most broken weapons in crucible. The reality is when you are in a situation with one your ttk has to be lower than the charge time because they 1. Cannot be flinched under any normal circumstances, below is a clip of myself using a messenger with high cal and kill clip up getting nailed through what is probably some of the highest flinch application possible. There is literally no counter to it. I would have to smack the man IRL to have any chance of him missing. https://gamerdvr.com/gamer/i-senor-bot/video/166834803 2. Have so much aim assist that its difficult to miss, it seems when bungie nerfed sniper aim assist with beyond light they neglected to hit special LFRs with the same nerf. You can slide, dodge, thrust icarus dash and get clipped anywhere near the torso up with a special LFR and its a headshot, the incredibly low magnification actually makes the weapon more and more lenient the further away you are. Now I’m not talking about the 0.6kd SBMM loving ‘players’ that will race out to say ‘I miss and get flinched all the time with special LFRs’ running around crucible with falling star and double thermoshock plating mods on. Im talking about players that are actually trying to compete at a high standard, combining them with cheese like kepris and gyrfalcon, there is virtually no counter to them. Its insane that 2 weapons so broken have just been left alone for so long, lord of wolves was in the same boat, it was so broken for so long before it was finally nerfed, this shouldn’t persist for years, it should be over nerfed and brought back up like Lord of Wolves currently is, 2 or 3 exotics shouldn’t run rampant dictating that you essentially win or loose based on how hard you decide to follow the extreme high end meta. The team currently running crucible has beyond no idea how to fix things in a timely manner and is the reason crucible numbers have declined so rapidly and so drastically that bungie have had to almost throw away SBMM because they’ve killed the population off so badly. Crucible shouldn’t roll from 1 insufferable meta each season to the next, we need fortnightly balance updates to cut the cheese off at the source, not now have to endure the rest of the season with gyrfalcons/kepris, 2 special LFRs, forerunner and sidearms just annihilating any team that doesn’t use them.
