Just played a few assassin games.

And it's still easy. Uber did a good job turning down the lunge damage, it needed to be weaker. I was still getting juice just as easily and winning every game though. I went something like 7-13-0, 4-2-0, and 7-7-7 all with the most earnings.

Actually, getting juice feels easier now(for some reason) and getting more money per grapple kill means i get the sword faster. I still think that assassin isnt the only class needing some fixes,though.

Did they remove the smoke bomb jump? I just tried it like 3 times and it didn't work.

no its still there, give a second try

Yea getting $50 a grapple is pretty awesome. I didn't think the change messed with the assassin too much. But Im sure the people who live to play assassin aren't going to be satisfied with their class being weakened.

You played a handful of games and did average.
What exactly is this thread about again?

Sarcasm aside. Nobody ever said the sin can't do well, Just that the nerf was a bit to harsh in regards to the lunge. A reduction was needed, not a removal.

I just don't get the logic with weakening the sin but not changing anything with the sniper.

The jump is still there, it just has not worked correctly since.....well forever
Sometimes you just get a "dud"
Killed myself more time then I care to say because of this.

I said it in the other thread and I'll say it here. It's not about who can go 40-0 in a public game. I can do that with every class in a public game... The assassin is useless against any team or anyone who knows what is going on.

And seriously, like Bolt said, three mediocre games against probably some bad public players and you think the class is fine?

Considering I never play the class, yeah. Even in competitive play, it's exactly the same.
