Why is GG the bar by which supers are measured?
Title. Why do we standardise things to GG? Why must it one shot everything for a balance meta? I does have 3 shots after all.....

Because it has no damage resistence, offense is the only defence. If it fails to OHKO, even Red Death can beat Golden Gun. I've done it myself with Radiant Skin and Claws of Ahamkara.

1 ReplyBecause honestly, it's probably the most balanced super in pve and pvp, in pve yes you only get three kills maybe a few more of you spec for it but you also get triple jump and the possibility at unlimited throwing knives, in PvP it one shots but you only get three shots, maybe 4 if you have the helmet, you have no armor and it's one of the slowest animations

If you're referring to PvP balance idk about calling it the "bar". But Golden Gun should one-shot everything because everything else can one-shot Golden Gun. It's the only super with no added defenses whatsoever, making it the definition of glass cannon. It also can't be use as a panic move in any way. So the reward for placing a shot should be a dead opponent.

2 RepliesBut it has no armor & 10 second activation window. It puts out the most ranged damage in the shortest time while having no way to defend itself or regen health being the only subclass out of 9 with no overshield or regen ability other than stormcaller(which will be called op as soon as sb gets nerfed).
