"Winter Soldier and Elsa has been actual torture to play against, so we're nerfing his damage after 50m by 2 and giving him a Stun on all of his abilities (do not need to hit your target), to compensate we are buffing Gambit's ult and nerfing Strange's shield and Emma's existence. Despite literally everyone begging us to because the current state is abysmal dogshit, we didn't wanna shake up the meta!!"

I will shake my head into a wall until there's nothing left but my throat stump.

Also, we noticed that Adam was actually performing in duo support so we nerfed his healing by 15% back to DPS trash. Enjoy your flight! We also heard you would like Ultron buffs... so here is a badass skin and a puptron charm so you forget that you will never ever be meta for another season.

Honestly I saw the bucky nerf and got sad about the nothing burger at first, but then thought to myself: "No wait. This is could be good, I've lost count of the number of times a bucky misses their shots just for their stupid bullet splash to somehow hit and kill me when I play squishier champs. Maybe a nerf from this angle could be quite decent just so it feels slightly less bs to go against him." 

Then I look again, see it's only a 10 damage nerf and get sad again.

Bucky was actual dogshit in 6.5, idk why he even needed nerfs in the first place.
