Balance Idea! Gunner VS Sniper!

I've seen Xeno do real quick deploys, generally to catch someone off guard.

A normal reaction is to take cover but they don't realize he's shooting deployed so they don't expect the slowdown effect and bam! Scratch one pro. Maybe even multikills if you're lucky.

As mentioned earlier, I fail to see how removing an ability you are free to use or not to use AT WILL is going to assist in balancing the gunner... I don't really know due to the explosion of new players lately, but I am certain some pro gunners find a golden opportunity to deploy. I'm not sure as I am not a gunner player myself, I main sniper and support... Sometimes tank.

However yeah, 100% crit might be overpowered considering you can hover over an area raining bullets down on people. I'd agree on that considering 3 crit bullets is enough to kill, and the gunners firing rate isn't exactly his weak point, double that firing rate and you have an insta-kill move over the scale of a map...
