    Hey everyone,

    I've noticed that as of current, classes are designed to counter each other. A good counter to a Soldier with the flag is another Soldier. A good counter to Elf with the flag is an Elf. The best counter to a Ninja with the flag is another Ninja. All of those also counter each other very well.

    It makes no sense. Elf was added with the Wind Element to counter another class that can fly, Soldier. But oh look, we just created another Soldier, congratulations. To try to fix Soldier, we just duplicated the problem. Ninja has Enderpearls which are just another problem like Soldier's jump and Elf's flying...

    For some reason when designing these classes, especially Elf, it seemed like a good idea to create another problem instead of fixing the others. Now we're stuck with a class that makes no sense in this game AND is broken.

    There has been talk of adding another class called Scout. A popular idea is to add a grappling hook to create another problem like Soldier... great.

    The moral of this is: can we please fix the current classes, and then add fun, efficient, and well rounded classes after?

    Also I understand Soldier was just nerfed. Sorry, it's still a problem. The whole mechanic is broken, I don't care how many times you can use it.

    Anyway, that's all. Thank you.

    Nope the class was designed to counter soldier using its earth element and the wind was meant to catch up with soldiers but people use the wind as a way of capping and generally the class failed.
