Clash needs a buff. | Forums

With a team that works around her she can be amazing, but within casual matches she is ultimately useless and nothing more than an intimidating force. Maybe give her a faster draw time when switching weapons?

Clash is impossible to kill with a single person. (Without grenades) I had a match come down 1v1 with me and clash. She just held her shield and turned on her shocker thing. No matter how much I hit her, the little stumble wasn't long enough for me to actually shoot her. Ultimately I won by pushing her out the door (secure area) which forced her to draw her weapon. But if she had been smart and stood in a corner I would have eventually lost from her little shocks. Or if it had been bomb I would have lost due to time.

That sounds a lot like castle, so she's probably even lower on the priority list than castle and tachanka

The thing is that she has so much potential, I rather her shield damage be brought down if it meant she can move faster.

Didn't she have a stupid quick draw to begin with and she was a nightmare and that is why she got nerfed...

Honestly, I think her taser should do more damage per tick. She is really easy to deal with solo as long as you move towards her, either she will run out of juice or she will panic and pull out her weapon, if there is two of you and she has no support she is done, and the new capito buff is going to completely destroy her slow moving backside.

Just dont ever turn your back on her and all she has right now is the intimidation factor.

Yeah she is just a niche pick. On release she was fun to use in solo que but now if you don't have a strat with your team, she is a very bad pick. Faster swap might be nice.

She absolutely needs a buff. I wanted to be a clash main but she is too slow and unplayable as she is.

Well I main her and I find her decent.
She sucks in solo plays sometimes, but I often meet players in solo plays, who play together with me.
Especially when I am using voice chat and the ping function.

I don’t just switch weapons in front of the enemy, I make the 180 turn weapon swap, which works pretty good.

If you want to buff her, don’t buff the weapon swap, buff her by using her shield.
That’s her gadget, that should get the attention.

I think shes in a good spot, but I feel like her movement speed could be a little faster considering how quickly slowed down opponents can catch up to you somehow.

No matter how you put it, Clash is just a defending copy and paste of Montagne. There is nothing different from Montagne aside from her being able to shock you for 5 damage every 3 seconds. Clash is useless in every map as a roamer and OBJ camper because of how her shock is reset just by crouching behind cover, or peaking a wall. She can not hold her own against even one person without support because of how slow her weapon draw and ads is(Almost about 3x as slow as Montagnes draw). Any player who is in a 1v1 can rush her and melee from the side( If said player chooses not to shock you) or just crouch spam cover until she decides to collapse her shield. If 1v1 in bomb mode bait with a fake plant as her shield collapse and ads is slow enough for the planter to head shot her before she can shoot.
