    I'm a little frustrated. Most my matches tonight had each team sporting 2 to 3 assassins. I don't think this is necessarily imbalanced, or even unfair. I just don't think it's very fun. IT messes with the flow too much. With so many assassins, there's no build up. Instead each base is in shambles because of the havoc all those assassins are wrecking.

    Agreed brother. My lobbies could always use more support class.

    It's the flavor of the day. I've played Assassin most of the day (already 30). It will pass. Everyone wants to be naruto.

    Most of people play assassin because she looks cool, but they just suck with her...

    Ive seen an assassin try to play with sword and didnt cloak once....

    I LOVE assassin, its my favorite and best class ^^

    Assasin is a dope class, but with so many rushing in to the enemy base, they're just target practice to me. I litterly killed the same dude 7 times in under 3 minutes as I was building the turrets in my base. His dedication to poor playing and bad practice is admirable, but hilarious.

    I rage SO hard when it comes to the assassin population. I'd rather see only one assassin on each team personally even though I'm an assassin main.

    Gunners and Tanks make Assassins their bitch tbh.

    The assassin is most def a solo mid-map / support enemy base class.

    I love seeing so many Assassins. Very few of them are any good, not that I'm particularly talented, but it often makes for easy money. I wonder how many of them thought the game was broken because they couldn't grapple my hovering Assault...

    Skilled Assassins are probably the best part of the game.

    Nothing like yelling "WHAT THE F*** WAS THAT?" for 3 hours straight.
    That's when you know the game is really good, or really cheap.

    In this case, its really good.

    What's your point?

    Everyone has to have some type of weakness.

    that assassins are real weak and if there are alot of them, the stealth/surpise is gone,
    so i look for assassins cloaked instead of foacusing on bots or turrets

    Then the turrets or a Pro will just take you out.

    I've seen a full team of assassins while my team had three gunners, support, sniper, and assassin(me)

    ...The game was over in about 5 minutes with each of us having about 10-15 kills each and 0-1 deaths.

    Honestly, you lose the element of surprise if you have more than one assassin on the team. And with the lack of actual pushers, you'll end up playing A LOT of defense which assassins aren't that great at. They're either on offense or they're running. and with no where to go, they become the easiest thing to spawn camp.

    Assassins are the easiest thing to kill, they can be OHKO grappled(in the exception of gold armor, but that's what guns are for), thrown off stage without any recovers, trapped and killed without much effort, burned to death and lose all element of surprise.

    If assassins annoy you THAT much, make a class with gold armor and you'll last the "assassination attempt".
