Not trying to bash you or anything but was all this necessary? I don't think blink was designed to give you an advantage or be used in place of normal jumps, it's just there as an option.

I don't think blink was just designed to look pretty either though. Some perks are for maneuverability like balanced glide or triple jump. Some are for speed like boosted glide or Titan skating. Blink isn't really good at either of those though. So what is it good for then? People say combat since it lets you have an advantage over your opponent , but I found out it doesn't really do that anymore. The question to ask then, is what is blink supposed to be good for, then work from there.

Blink is the fastest jump for the distance it travels. The downside being it doesn't travel very far. The startling speed of Blink is why it's good at dodging and disorienting your enemies.

I believe many already pointed it out that, blink works for getting away from heates battlefield, rocket launchers, supers and suchs when it is used well. So, it is usefull for certain situations.
