I think bain just doesn't like them because they give newbies a chance against him. ;)

Maybe they dont like pgrens cuz it gjves the game more depth.  And the typical DP'er nowadays wants the game to be as simple and mindless as possible, no strategy required.  Just spawn, grab cocker, bunny hop to middle section and start spraying.  Optional:  When your outnumbered or cornered, just camp and let out a neverending continous stream of paint.  Thats a lot more fun than actually having some strategic elements and depth.....

I hate to say it, but I truly wish from the bottom of my heart, you and your entire family die in a very painful accident, RB.  

I mean it, truthfully.  Die. Please.


Jit.. apparently you haven't seen bain play.  If anything, bain needs the grens to try and stop every newbie and their mother from capping on him.  He's perhaps the worst player ever.  It's insane.  I worked the numbers, and he allows upwards of 24 caps a month in er33t matches alone.  I won't even attempt to add all the pub-caps he's allowed.  My calculator starts doing that crazy e+24 crap.

Obviously the goal was to make it more balanced so it would appeal to Royalblood.  Hopefully his expectations were met with this.  It wasn't a change, but a balancing act.

Of course you have to find the middle ground where it works for it to actually be balanced.  Now its just out of balance in the other direction.

Anyway I was playing today and noticed what you were talking about Xbain with the "voodoochild" strategy.  That guy tossed 5 grenades, one right after another, when no one was even anywhere near him.  I dont have an ideas on how to solve that.  But taking away the grenades from everyone isnt the answer.  He didnt actually get anyone doing that, so it only made him look silly.

You should lock the FOV so we don't have to see horrible screenshots from MFornal and Blitz.
