And I must say - spectre nerf feels harsh, but it was long overdue so I'm okay with that meta shake up. But hooooly shit, who is the guy at Riot who went and thought that doing THIS is going to be a good idea?

I mean, I'm a terrible aimer for my elo - mid-diamond last ep, now placed P1 - the Ares literally buffed me. If spectre was bad before, this is out of the range of acceptability. After warming up for one game, where I already did not have to eco once as I could just buy Ares if no money, in my second game of the season I just straight up only played Ares. It is completely viable. It's not strictly BETTER than Vandal or Phantom, however it feels about on that level...? For fucking 1550? If you go against god aimers it's gonna get hard, but an average "diamond level" player currently is in shock faced with this gun. I got an insane amount of double and triple kills just by spamming in the general direction of the enemy.

Please revert this shit. I don't deny it's fun, in fact that's the most fun I've had in a long time in this game, but it's going to get stale super fast. It compromises the competitive integrity of the game, ubless the game is supposed to be like that? Ares was very decent before and now in its former state it wouldn't be outshined by the spectre anymore. I'm not even talking about the flow of the game. Pistol win gives you nothing but more shields now unless the whole losing team buys for 800.

Where were you when spectre was kil?
