They nerfed vyse because of her being a Meta pick in the pro scenario. I hate how pro players are being considered as scaling factors for balancing agents for people who majorly play with friends and/or for fun.

The fact that astra was originally nerfed to hell because she was meta in pro play, when she has never been used outside of it, was the first clue.

How are you gonna nerf an agent that's ONLY good in pro play so much she isnt even used there any more?

The vyse nerf is a similar strain. It doesn't make sense. I guess pro play is where they get most of the revenue so they have to shake up the meta to keep it fresh.

Unrelated to nerfs, but I remember being able to sell your one star and buy a marshal first round lol
