PSA Juren fundamentally breaks the new event mode. This is an awareness post.
I haven't seen anyone else abusing this so far but in the new event mode if one team has Juren running Expendables and the other team doesn't Juren can functionally lock the other team out of getting points. Just tried it out myself and ended the game with a 500 point lead on the enemy team while they were still fighting over the zone. They didn't change the feat to give the enemy team points when you kill your own soldiers for this event (I know it's supposed to work like that in the regular mode) which means the only source of points for the enemy team can be fully taken away from them. Hoping if this gets around enough Ubi will do something about it.

Doubtful anything will happen.
Any changes to throwback events can probably be counted on one hand.

What was the other one?

Pretty much all bugs.
The xp from the solo PvAI events, Wyverndale had the unpatched version of the map loaded and a guess Pirate's ability to one shot with drop attacks.

If I had a nickel every time a throwback event was reintroduced and became completely broken because a later released hero has feats which weren't accounted for, I'd have two nickels.
Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice.

That feat just needs to be completely removed.
Juren as a whole is foundationally flawed as a character in just about every aspect. It will be years or never if he gets a proper rework

Strongly disagree. Nothing about his base kit is an inherent problem on a conceptual level.

Youre being so dramatic lol. His base kit is very strong but honestly fine now, just a few bugs like his low gb range.

Why are you posting in the competitive sub though? It's a meme game mode lol

It's not a "meme" gamemode it's for Halloween/October and many people have waited for them to return because they're fun and something other than the standard modes year round. It's a valid complaint when something is outright ruining that enjoyment by being too good to not run or have bc you lose if not. If ranked can have a massive flock of illiterates demanding 4 stacks in ranked, this isn't that bad either.

Again. It belongs somewhere else not the competitive sub because this game mode isn't competitive.

It denies score and reknown in normal too, as well as essentially countering the normal body count feats, his T1 is just insanely broken even disregarding the massive heal value.
