did you quit pro league?

I stepped off my team after disagreements about team composition and the best comp to run in our match this previous Monday. I wasn’t on the same page as the rest of my team and I felt like I didn’t belong. They had a sub prior to my leaving and I wish them luck in the upcoming matches.

So they wanted you to play rev instead of thief

I used to think (build op, pls nerf) like you, but then I took a nerf to the knee.

Not quite. I don’t mind playing other classes – I didn’t agree with counter-comping ourselves. I learned Revenant regardless, and I play more than just Thief. That’s part of the competitive game (being able to adapt). But shifting into a comp that the other team already has an advantage over wasn’t something I was willing to do. In the end they ended up mirror comping a team who already played the comp and had experience with it. PZ only changed one person, whereas Spookie changed 3. Not enough time to get used to a comp change that drastic against a team that’s been running the comp for a month.

Hey Caed, I’ve noticed in your streams that you normally use Bound+steal to initiate on your target.
Why not use Weakening Charge + steal, which has higher burst damage, applies weakness, and results in an extra dodge?

There are times where I want to follow up more quickly. If you open with Weakening Charge you need to dodge after to regain the 10% damage bonus from Bound. Starting with Bound allows you to follow up with other skills more quickly. Also Stealing at full endurance results in nothing, using the dodge early gives you something back on your open. And finally, it depends partly on whether Weakness affects what I’m fighting.
