Dropped 4k points in like 20 games because of double balancers wannabe-pros
I usually don't do this but holy fuck man i can't take it anymore.
It has gotten so bad that I'm actually considering going solo at this point.
Double balancer meta is the next big brainrot in this game that just makes players objectively worse while letting them achieve more than before at the same time.
I was at 9700 literally 2 wins away from max. after hundreds of hours at DON grind on mostly non meta builds/characters. Was even on a 15 game winstreak with decent teammates (and no, I wasn't carried), then had a cursed series of mainly dreglord, balancers and ed libra back to back which where mostly losses. The dlc ones often just ended on night 2 or even 1 cause those are extra brutal.
It's just crazy to me that most of my teammates had double balancers + dmg relics, so basically all glas cannons. No health, no negations, no post hit regen, just aaaall damage.
The big problem is...those people can't dodge shit and can only brute force wins by killing bosses before the die.
But guess what - that doesn't work on a hard night boss on D4/D5.
Only thing they can do is pressing the win button - just do die immediatly after cause they have no hp, no defense and no clue about aggro shifting. Simply are incapable of 1v1ing a boss in general.
I will never understand how people can die so often as duchess and ironeye, it's just mindblowing to me.
I barely play those 2, but when i do it feels like playing on easy mode it's crazy. You can roll so bad but still get away with it, absolutely busted.
It feels like the majority of D4/D5 players I get are boosted one tricks who lack critical basics and will hit a hard wall in D5 when they realize they won't get a 80% winrate anymore.
Guess I have to play guardian/revenant every game from now on just so I can res those bar farmers or go full solo.
Maybe I just quit till next dlc cause this shitshow ain't worth it.
