    Right now, as soon as ninja gets out the flagroom, its almost unstoppable. Sure, its not the easiest thing to get out of the flagroom as ninja, but just 1 small mistake from the defence and the ninja is out, and that shouldn't be the case considering ninja is, and always has been, intended to be a recovery class.

    I don't think ninja capping should be made impossible, or very irrelevant in everyday CTF matches, but it needs a nerf. A lot of nerfs have been a bit dumb, such as not letting them pearl with the flag, which would make ninja capping pretty much impossible and would ruin one of the most intense, fast-paced strategies in the game. However, I think it needs a change to make recovering from ninjas after they get out of the flagroom possible.

    All that ninja needs is a small nerf to slow it down a bit, to make it easier for ninjas to catch up with it, and I think it can be solved quite easily. If ninja is immobilised once they throw a pearl, and can only move once the pearl lands again, it can make other ninjas be able to catch up to you and give them a chance to kill you. It also means that you might have to kill ninja recoverers before you pearl, which is quite tricky but is doable, and can be done against 2-3 ninjas at the same time.

    Of course, with it, comes a few problems. I think the only relevant one is that if the pearl is thrown into the void, or completely misses, the ninja will be immobilised for way too long and it would be frustrating to die like that. To solve that, when the ender pearl is thrown, it should be turned into an eye of ender - 3 of them. Every second, you lose 1 eye of ender (so the cooldown is obvious), and once there's only 1 eye of ender, you can right click it to get rid of the already-thrown enderpearl and throw another pearl. If needed, you could still take 2 hearts of damage. Even if the main change isn't added, I think this has been needed for a while as it sucks when you throw a pearl into the void and have to wait 10 seconds for it to regenerate.

    I have to agree 2 ninjas on a team with a good offence and they pretty much have the game.

    When I first read the thread's name, I saw "Ninja Twerk", so I clicked on it. Much disappointed.

    For the tweak I give +0.5; I like the aspect of being able to recall the pearl, as I've ****ed up and thrown it into the void many a times.
