Lots of nerfs to Natascha being tested.  |

It's like a dream come true. Now Valve's goons just need to fix the range at which compression blast affects players.
^DANGER, OPINION STATEMENT! HERP DERP.

Really? Natasha nerfs? I guess they want me to want to use it less than I do now, which is never. The main use I got out of Natasha was (inadvertently) learning how to be a better heavy, since it did less damage than Sasha.

Yeah, if you're a very good heavy Natascha is useless, but then if you're a very good heavy then you're already practically invincible. Natascha makes bad heavys get the results of a good heavy with sasha, and renders scouts and pyros absolutely useless. Kind of a big deal.

It kills targe and charge too. Can't even activate it if a Natascha heavy is shooting at you.

Yeah I just traded for a shortstop today and the guy told me to give it back because I was destroying his team with it. I'm a bad scout too... With the shortstop you just have to run forwards and shoot and anything that gets in your way dies faster than you can say "NERF PLOX".

I don't think the shortstop is really overpowered or anything. Sure, you can attack better from range, but you're sacrificing a lot of close-range firepower. I wouldn't trade the scattergun for it.
Natasha isn't really overpowered or underpowered, it's just kinda rude.

Yeah, I dunno. There are a lot of times (especially as a Pyro or Demo) where I know I can duck behind a corner to get away from Sasha, but Natasha just melts my face off. Basically, if Sasha would hit once or thrice Natasha hits twice as many times and meanwhile the Heavy gets closer and damage goes up and up. There's a range somewhere around the limit where the shot/scattergun loses effectiveness that Natasha has no equal, IMO.

Natasha isn't really overpowered or underpowered, it's just kinda rude. Shortstop does more DoT point-blank than you'd expect... 65-75 damage*4, enough to wipe out a heavy more often than not, and all in a space of time faster than the scattergun can fire off 2 shots... Scattergun is better at scout vs scout tho, just cause you need time to aim and dodge and the SS's rate of fire is not of much benefit. I think that's why Valve put the slow on it, so that a good enough (to aim effectively and dodge at the same time) SS scout can wipe out another scout who uses the scattergun easily, thereby making the SS overpowered in all situations in higher levels of play. This gun is definitely Valve trolling us. |
