Disappointing. I was really hoping to save a few puppies.

 

I mean all mage is REALLY good at, and by that I mean the only thing it does reliably is single out people to kill them. Sometimes can handle multiple people. Sometimes can recov or defend. Capping is meh.

Yes, it's OP. Hell even I, a semi-decent user of mage, got a 43 killstreak with it until an assassin finally got me. However, I don't think giving heavy antikb to projectiles is the answer. To be honest it would work well against mage, but it isn't really needed for anything else. A heavy can already kill engineers fairly effectively. As @Quarrelt showed in today's match, archer's knockback only slightly delayed the death of the archer, especially now that it's only Punch I.

TL DR; -1 there are better changes/counters.

 

Yeah, Heavy is a simple, tank like class on its own, its good for killing a mage as long as as the mage doesn't spam the damage spell then lighting (which has been happening to me a lot lately.). The only problem with mage really is just how much he or she runs and spams spell since that's all the class is good for, that and some times support.

 

Maybe no knockback against mage and only 5 uses of heals.

 

How about you make Mages Regen potion 2 seconds of regeneration 10, that way its more like an instant health potion but you still don't get ****ed over the next second, but decrease the recharge time by 1 second.

 

I mean not everyone spams the damage spell the ones that are the hardest to beat are the ones who use all their spells like @TheMaelstromsEye is pretty hard to beat and plus I feel like Mage is a good counter to archer and I love anything that counters archer

 

Ever since punch 2 was knocked down to punch 1 almost any class is a good counter to mage.

 

Not true and *archer

 

ahaha thanks. Strokin my ego there, but seriously thanks. I am not the best, averagesoda is better.

 

Sorry wrong thread, so many threads like this I lost track on which one I was currently on, me not paying attention also didn't help.

 

I don't think the "no knockback" idea you are proposing should be entitled to heavy alone.

 

In that case, @Doggies_ and @thgstarburst have killed about 1 million

 

He kind of has a point, it's damn near impossible to even catch Doggies_, sat there and watched three poor heavys struggle to kill him.

 

OMG I HAVE A POINT???!!!!
