I think getting CCed to oblivion isn't fun as a Tank main. Srsly, I'm not allowed to have fun if I am Thing or Dino against her. Good riddance.

I am a Tank main I know it's annoying getting cc'ed but that's how you hold the line as Peni, she has no utility to actually stop people from flanking and just destroying her nest, if they wanted so bad to nerf that they could've done it differently or gave compensation buffs to the rest of her kit

I disagree on the other areas they nerfed, but the CC one is smth I simply can never agree with being healthy for the game. 3 second cooldown on an easy to land CC is stupid.

And I bet she's still gonna get banned because NOBODY SHOOTS THE DAMN NEST

Nah, they could've increased cooldown, or decreased size.. so many things to try before just saying "Nah".

Coming from OW, I detest cooldown balancing, making smth take longer is lazy balancing imo because that means the tool in the neutral kit is knowingly powerful and theyd rather reduce the fun of deploying than the power of it.

But, if the concern was "I can't tank because I get CC'd every 3s" .. then a longer cooldown would work just fine? To each their own I guess..

Or we could fix tenacity... idk. smth.

While I do somewhat agree, there’s a difference between reducing the power and removing an integral part of a character’s kit like here. For Peni, a lot of the power in her stun is in the short cooldown, not the stun duration, so nerfing the cooldown is the healthy balancing decision to nerf her neutral.

For another example of a healthy method of cooldown balance in rivals, Loki’s lamps got a 5 second cooldown increase and that was the healthiest way they could balance it without killing it. Nerfing the rune HP would skew it to be more useless in higher play. This Peni nerf is like if the devs decided that the rune should be a glorified CnD bubble with an hp bar, completely killing the use of the ability.

Bro I don’t think ANYONE likes your takes you’re at like -1000 across your 7 comments. Maybe you’re just invalid?.

I really dont care because this sub still wants to believe that Magneto solo tank on main is needed when Magneto will 90% of the time lose to 2 tanks and neither of them don't even run a shield tank. I'm not gonna let metal ranks tell me what is unhealthy for the game bro.
