  • Have you given thought why is it used and is it objectively bad, ok, good, op? I started using bombardies three seasons ago for a simple reason: Antaeus Ward. Decoy was best counter to that + kickstart fusion aping. When that was nerfed in conjunction with thundercrash, Rise of the Bubble bloomed into its full potential. With slide+melee+shotgun among other voidishly great things. So decoy is still one of the the best titan aping counters. As long as titans have nearly incounterable aping method, people will use whatever they find best way to counter it. As soon as we either nerfs or other meta change, it will be used. If they nerf starnd (and titans stay as they are) we will see strand hunter moving to stasis and I assure you, you will not enjoy that any more than strand. I have played over 600 Trials game this season alone and died to threadling probably under 5 times, and I have dozens of Threadling kills myself and I assure you, people who die to threadlings are 90%+ time the same, ape-style preferring aggressive players who push just as bad ”cheese” as threadlings are probably in your opinion. And I’m nowhere near the high end of game skill. When I face them, threadlings are just a small annoyance at best. I understand your frustration as I have killed so many guardians with my cheese, buy my question to you is what did you expect? To have a ”fair” fight me and you sking politely to trade shots? Were you going to shoot me with something else than shotgun when you rushed? Can’t you shoot threadlings that move at a speed of snail before they catch you?

  • You would rather fight Titan barricades because you are a Titan main. I would rather face three strand hunters than bubble titans.

    All I got from this post and the comments is no one here really plays medium-high level crucible lol I won’t be surprised if I go to the forums one day and see everyone complaining about miscellaneous nonsense. “Why is the opponent shooting back at me?” “Why is my opponent allowed to jump and glide?” “Why am I matching real people in Trials? Look at my KD Bungie, I should be allowed ATLEAST 5 default wins to the Lighthouse 😡” “My opponent’s team is better than me, plz reduce their health to make it even Bungie” Yeah… I could see it now lol

    • There is a counter to the decoy Hunter and threadlings. If you don't know what it is, I can't help you, because this is how the game works. This is WHY the game works. Destiny is about discovering a combination of fun and strategy within the limits of the game to overcome obstacles that are placed in the way of winning. Whatever winning is to you, that's the goal. Are there things that are easier to use than others? Yes. Does every easy to use attack/defense have an easy to use counter? No. If so, this game would be boring. The easy to do META will always have a hard to do counter and it is supposed to MOTIVATE people to show off how good they are at discovering the counter and winning. That's really all there is to it.

      • What’s crazy is ai live in Asia. This has been the META since it came out. I’ve been complaining about it ALL SEASON! I’m so happy the west finally get to deal with this BS!!! Y’all told me to Adapt, so ADAPT! It only took one of the biggest streamers to talk about how broken it is for you to realize…….. Imagine fighting for your life every weekend (Asia player pool is small) against the same trash kids and barely winning because they two stack spamming threadlings…. 1. You can’t push and secure a 1 shot because shadow clone can kill you… 2. They can strafe behind a shadow clone to force aim assist to kill the clone in a 1v1. 3. It pings radar like a smoke. 4. If destroyed by you/ or you get to close it explodes and tracks you EVEN in AIR 5. You can’t shoot them after they jump…. Literally, 100 M, 100 H, 100 G with 6th Coyote And you have infinite up time on abilities!!!! You can now fight 2-3 skill levels over your own skill. …. GG no re! Skill Issue…. As bad as Arc titans were, they had to close the distance. With this crap you don’t even have to engage. You can push to point and make them have to engage you…. Awful….

        • It’s completely stupid. I intentionally took a hit from a maggot/thread long wave to check out the damage. It’s a whole grenade hit with the benefit of auto-tracking, zone control, and radar confusion. Yet a direct hit from my WEAK AF POWERED warlock solar melee can’t kill a red bar guardian. It might be fair to finally allow warlock rifts to damage opposing guardians with the amount of BS they keep plaguing PVP with

        • Meanwhile, warlocks are the least-played class in trials by a landslide & have been for a couple of years. It is even worse if you take Dawn Blade out of the picture(25% to 10%).

          • Honestly, the only complaint I have about it right now is that the threaded specter should have less health. Shooting it off the battlefield right now is actually rather a pain in the -blam!-.

            • It be nice to have a gun game mode or something that allows us to use 600 different items in our vault. Nope. That would be too much like fun. Instead we are limited to 10 weapons and a boat load of ability spams and supers. Anything to make this far from a fps pvp experience.

              • Hunter: Barricade is broken! It makes me one shot when I walk through it! Barricade doesn’t explode and chase you down just for looking at it the wrong way.

                  Nah titans have too much going for them in pvp... 20 mobility and still the fastest character, 100 resil, 100 recovery, 100 discipline, barricade over shield, 50 intellect fastest strongest pvp super in 3s, shoulder charge for movement or suppressing a super and oem omg ( at least bubble can be shut down now ) your hunter problem, don't shoot the clones, shoot the threadlings not hard to deal with.... stasis turrets and void buddies are more annoying imo

                    The pull towards a decoy when shooting an enemy has resulted in me dying when I was going to win that fight, more times than it should. Aim assist sees a decoy, see you're shooting a person, and just prioritizes the decoy out of no where. It's worse than when you are shooting someone but their teammate runs past in the background and you're forced to shoot the person running by and not the person shooting back at you. At least barricades don't have threadlings when you destroy them cause you are usually relaoding at this moment and are -blam!- cause they are rushing towards you and you are in realod animation and they don't die instantly so you need to be shooting them at that exact moment.

                        • The decoy if you destroy it should become friendly threadlings and shouldnt take aim assist. Titans are just insane idk where to even start with them

                          • Dude they just nerfed fusions for the second time in few months. First was under pressure perk then a dev died to a fusion again so they wrecked range(damage falloff).
