Warriors are just ruining the game. It is no longer skill related. If you want to win you don’t have to be good you just have to play hambow warrior.
In addition its not like “yeah they’re pretty op right now, so every team needs one”. To win you need as much warriors as you can get.
Please ANET PLEASE fix this on 18th. It is just frustrating and ruins the game for everyone to see one build devastate you every single time without a chance of any counter.

Just a little example of what i mean:
I was playing yoloq when i encountered a team of 3 warriors. We had no warrior.
Im not saying rank=skill, but losing with nothing more than 26 points for a team like this is not normal for people around r50.

Since when was PvP skill related? It has always been about OP builds rolling over every other class.

warriors, pistol whip spammers, spirit rangers, decap engis, etc… no skill needed for win, just spam.

ANET how can you still dish out scarlet crap if such a statement cannot be considered false?

While warriors are overtuned right now. ….losing like that isnt purely class/profession related.

Matches easily snowball on that map if people dont rotate properly. Esp seeing how you play as decap engi. Homepoint defenders not rotating mid when you push far means your team will get wiped in mid and outzerged on other points.

Sweet stars above, kiddo, nothing in this game was ever skill-based. Please don’t tell me that it took you this long to realize that.

How come there have been outstanding teams that dominated others? Were they just lucky?

1. Maybe because PvE marks money.
2. Maybe because the LS team is not the same as the imaginary balance team this game supposedly has.

The point being the team responsible for scarlet has no business with the terrible balance this game have in PvP.

Skill is a factor. But only to a point, builds and hard counter aspects carry so much harder.

A-net designs balance around people being inept and not doing what they need to at the right time, so then we get a whole mess of problems. (like even considering trying to compensate the eles who don’t want to change attunement -_-)

eg:
rolls a BM ranger and wrecks every decent shatter mesmer by essentially rolling my face on my keyboard. Not totally true. I dogged the shatters the way I was supposed to and out healed and kill em but I didn’t win on skill I won because of the build and I knew how to doge… Sure I dearped a few times and clearly being out played is a factor, but I don’t think it’s fair when one side has little to no risk and the other side needs to try super hard.

which at a certain point everyone learns how to avoid properly… except maybe the people who click and have no idea how to circle straif… But those people arn’t the ones we should be compensating for IMO.
