When Catalysts are Destroyed During Firing Sequence, Metal Planets Should Explode!

In general, I agree. There is nothing wrong with game-enders being in PA, the laser deserves its place and shouldn't be nerfed into the ground.

All I want to see happen is there to be a period of time where a player can react to what is happening, as well as some sort of drawback to give it more depth and allow for more interesting gameplay. It wouldn't have to be anything huge, it would just have to be something that allowed for outliers to be possible. Which is not something a cooldown can do. There is a dilemma with a cooldown and that is this: if you make it short it just drags the game on. If you make it long enough for someone to get back on their feet, you no longer have a game ender.

That being said, a cooldown is not a bad mechanic, it just doesn't really fit with what the annihilaser is trying to accomplish.
