Contrary to what everyone thinks, snipers are not the biggest issue in PvP. Yes they have high amounts of aim assist and people are pulling off snipes that are kind of ridiculous. But read below. The gun that is causing this "imbalance" in crucible is The Last Word. Let me tell you why. - Auto rifles cannot function the way they are intended. Every auto rifle is outgunned by TLW. And because everyone uses TLW, auto rifles will always be outgunned. - TLW is better than any hand cannon in the game. The accuracy and range of hand cannons is still not where it needs to be. This forces a hand cannon user to stay more close quarters, and at that point, TLW can easily beat a hand cannon user. This makes hand cannons obsolete. - There are a lot of snipers out there using TLW. Why? Because TLW can be used practically as a shotgun as well as be effective in close to medium range engagements. Nothing can beat it. - Think of this game without TLW. Would it work? Would more people use auto rifles and hand cannons? What about fusion rifles? The game would change dramatically if they nerfed TLW and you will see much more weapon diversity. TRUST ME. By the way. This Valentine's Day doubles playlist will be messed up. Thorn will be everywhere. I'm calling it now. Edit: Some people have called me out as a complainer and to stop asking for nerfs. I just want to say that the problem with TLW is much more apparent at higher ranks because there are much more people who know how to use it. People with lower skill will see much more weapon diversity and can actually use their hard light or whatever other weapon they want because the chances of facing someone who knows how to use TLW properly is much lower. Every trials match or skirmish match I play is against people who use 1kstare and TLW. They lay back and snipe. And as soon as you get close to them your fked. I can do the same as them, but is this in any way fun?
