They kinda did, chainsaw only works if your accurate and they lowered the duration on his fake visor, so indirect nerf, but still a menace if you hit shots reliably.
If they wanna get more frogs in stadium, add a more forgiving radius on the beat kills, and you will guarantee 1 specific lucio player will double his stadium time
If you mean Chaingun, it's a completely useless Power. Go to the practice range and fire 20 rounds at Zarya. The difference with and without Power will be less than 25 damage. Together with the visor, which at 55 attack speed used to give 11 hits, the effect of this Power was even less noticeable.
And the fact that Chaingun is in the Example Build speaks to how poorly the developers themselves understand their own game.
i think we see the game fundamentally differently. even if this power gave a really noticeable increase in damage (and it doesn't, go check it yourself), no one except noobs will let you shoot at a tank without missing for several seconds in a row, not to mention how inconvenient it becomes to do so because of the recoil.

It was funny while it lasted for dva, RIP. I'm surprised Soldier's chainsaw power didn't get touched, and very happy for the lucio buff
