CTF Summer Testing

The whole respawning with assassinate needed to be addressed and I'm cool with medics not being able in restore it because a 25% reduction in assassinate regeneration time is a pretty massive buff imo. I feel like half of the time I'm playing assassin I'm waiting for it to regenerate so hopefully this change will make assassin more active and engaging.
Giving strength II over absorption hearts seems like a buff to so I'm interested in how it will feel.

 

While it's true that not all medics restore redstone, I think it's worth taking into consideration that people often cooperate in calls/chat to restore the assassin's redstone after every use. It is something I've done and seen others do as well, so I wouldn't say this is something that should be disregarded

 

I agree with what Recovs says here, especially currently, with the decreased cooldown to 15 seconds and Death Tag lasting for 15 seconds, it is possible to get 2 Death Tags off on the same person and have them Death Tagged for 30 seconds, which nobody wants and is a bit overpowered. I only realised this after almost doing it in casual like half an hour ago. I think the cooldown should either remain at 20 seconds or the effect should be shortened.

 

Please keep the changes to chemist, that class should be a medium health class not a tank. I once saw 10 (yes i'm not over exaggerating) heavy's all trying to kill 1 chemist and did he die? Spoiler no. The character has speed, health, damage, and you are taking away something that it shouldent have which is defense so please nerf this character, no class deserves a nerf more than chemist. Ive played this game since it came out and I delt with all the old op stuff such as instant kill pyro, old invisible ninja, assassins 2 assassinates. But im telling you that I would rather have all 3 of those op stuff back over not having chemist nerfed, its that bad so please keep the nerf. Thanks

 

it really depends on who the chem and heavy are. in competitive it usually takes 1-2 heavies (depending on who it is as well)
