Shotguns are overused, overperforming, and in the case of Felwinters, overpowered. Shotguns were a go to choice for many players even before the nerfs to snipers and fusions. While they are usable, they are not fun to use. With snipers, one SMG bullet from across the map will send your reticle to the sky box. And since they nerfed the aim assist theres no leeway. Trying to play aggressively will only get you killed. With snipers now there seems to be only one playstyle: sit in the back and hardscope. Fun. Fusions are just shotguns with a wind up, which makes them objectively worse. Shotguns are too easy to use for how powerful they are. They fit into almost any loadout way too well, and because of the close range nature of almost all pvp maps, there's never a reason to swap. But they are too inconsistent to nerf. Revert the sniper flinch nerf and the fusion rifle nerf. Make sure quickdraw never appears on a shotgun again.
