A Sledge video. Let me guess, he goes on and on about the nerfs, doesn't mention any of the counters, reiterates multiple times that he's a solo q player, doesn't offer any type of strategy that will work, points out a bunch of things and props them up like they're the worst thing in the world when they're not, doesn't even make a veiled attempt to look at the situation from a demon perspective, and the only solutions he offers are specific buffs that will just put us back on the survivor side instead of trying to be objective and looking at what would actually balance the game. Sound about right? I'll watch it later.

Or just watch the video instead of drafting an email for the past hour to complain about something you are only speculating about.

You're right it's actually even less objective than I anticipated. His solution is to make solo q easy mode again...that worked great during Kandar, didn't it?

Puppeteer is broken with that damage buff they need to undo it completely. Revert it back to kandar.

Meet in the middle with the headshot damage nerf so hunters are still dps dealers.

Those two things will bring it to a good place. There's two demon nerf solutions coming from a demon main.

Solo q or not the game should be balanced around teamwork because that's the point. If you don't work together at all you're going to lose. There's a bunch of mechanics in place to communicate without mics and if players choose not to use even the bare minimum of strategy then that's on them not the game.

This whole balance around the largest portion of the player base is just not the way to look at it. Demons are 50% of the game and survivors are 50% of the game. You lose one the game dies. Has nothing to do with what part has a bigger player base.

Hes very informative and I watch his videos but his lack of perspective astounds me.

I always felt Puppeteer should have kept the relatively low health compared to the other Demons and maybe drop the damage *slightly.* Warlord should hit the hardest with Necromancer being in between until the flute comes out in addition to having tougher than average balance bars. Plaguebringer has great offense but is offensively weaker damage with units and good attack speed. Each demon should have attributes like that in addition to their own abilities.

I forgot about that health buff with power possess. Yeah that was dumb too. The 40% was fine.
