I've heard a lot of complaint that last few hours about the Juiced Assassin. Think about it, Uber did not make the Assassin any stronger with Juice than before the DLC. The Assassin has the least armor while Juiced out of all other Juiced Players, easiest to kill. Easiest to Ringout, or have a grapple while turrets damage her. The rate of which she gains Juice is the problem however, the rate at which any class gains Juice is the problem. Juiced Assassins are not the problem. JUICE IS. I'm not saying get rid of juice but Juice is abtained to often during a Crossfire match than everyone would like, lessen the rate for everyone to gain juice and no one would be complaining.
Juice isn't the problem, people are. Learn to counter juice. Kill the enemy pros before they can get the juice. Guard the juice machines. I can do it, why can't you?
I thought Juice was supposed to be harder to get with the DLC? Support and Sniper Juice gain was reduced and the dispensers were put on a cooldown. Why all the complaining about Juice? It can't be worse than before, its impossible. And if you want a decent guide to stopping Juicers, read my DEA Sniper Guide.
I'm not one to complain about juice, but with everyone else complain i had to put my 2 cents in to show them what they are complaining about should be juice and not tha Assassin, as they don't even know what they are really talking about with threads "Nerf the Assassin" while when you read it they just complain about juice so they should've named it "Nerf Juice" instead of once again degrading Assassins in this game. Although for my personal opinion i think Juice should be a little more rare than intended, but i can deal with it now.
you shouldnt have to counter juice it should be rare in a game it is the cowards way out to get kills cause they suck at this game. It also makes the Noobs that think this game is about kills like its CoD or halo feel at home cause they can be cheap like in both those games.
If idiots were playing the lanes instead of TDM, then the Assassin would have no way to keep juicing...
Playing AS a good Assassin, all i have to say is the Juice Gain Rate can be reduced by 1/4 and i think it would solve everyones problems. The damage she puts out while Juiced is reasonable as she has the lowest armor in the game. Although pushing lanes will cut back on Juiced Assassins, but they also do need a little reduced Juice Gain Rate, heck i can get 10 Juices in one game without buying them and its funny.
I think the Assassin is still a bit too powerful. The front grapple does a lot more now and so it's either dash grapple or grapple slash unless you have an ace up your sleeve.
The front grapple will not kill someone, and if you don't die, the Assassin either dies or runs away. I played a private match with no one using juice and the Assassins weren't that good at all, Juice does change it, other than that, no changes need to be made to the Assassins, the Lunge is perfect, the damage before was minimal to non existent.
