As someone who plays poke, I am absolutely enjoying this outrage.
My main DPS is punisher as I grew up playing COD, so fighting all these different types of enemies with an AR and shotgun is just pure joy to me. That being said when dive was the very strong it was almost impossible to enjoy the game because his zipline is so buggy leaving my smoke only and he had lower health. I play strat and punisher almost equally so I suffered hard under dive meta.
Its our turn now, you will get your turn again soon. A balanced game is almost impossible to achieve while also maintaining this level creativity in character design and just the amount of different variations there will always be one way defeats another. Not saying its fair, but it wasnt fair when dive was impossible to stop. I do think toning down invis and gambit will bring a bit more balance to dive. As those changes are quite significant and you will notice that as time goes on. Cant please everyone! Maybe their just trying to give everyone their turn. Also I see all the complaints about hawkeye and while i do agree he can be countered, you just cant dive a backline solo anymore and get a backline wipe as dive anymore and I feel like its making you furious not being able to adapt.
