    No one is good anymore.

    The majority of the current playerbase is utter trash at this game. The only 2 heroes I ever fight is Lawbringer and Gladiator because they are 2 most broken heroes in the game and no one cares since everyone is maining them. Im so tired of having to turtle or play at extreme range and then being called trash for doing so. Meta hogs are burning this game to the ground fast and people like me who want this game to continue thriving are left with so many unanswered questions. Why cant LB and Glad get a nerf? Why are you guys buffing heroes that don't need it?

    Glad pick rate, plat rank and above last season :
    -2% breach
    -2.8% dominion
    -6.4% duel

    Glad win rate same bracket and season :
    -45.6% breach
    -47.2% dominion
    -43% duel

    Wonder where are all those Glad mains you are talking about except in your worst nightmare.

    Also anyone saying Glad didnt needed a buff is either dishonest or have no clue about this game.

    LB is another story as its true you cant find a single game without this Guy in and his defense is annoying.

    Yes, you are probably the only one. As soon as you find one who does not always shove against attack where he gets a guardbreak, it's basically over for you, he easily outtrades you. Not to mention he needs 3 parry to kill you.

    I used to love lawbringer, but it feels so easy to win with him that I never pick hím now. Even Prior is more fair.

    I've been sending feedback on both of these heroes to the team. They are both meta right now, as you say.

    Both were given changes due to a ton of players requesting that they receive changes during that time. I don't quite understand the "buffing heroes who don't need buffs" statement.

    It's been the same way since release, the heroes just change, remember last year when every dominion had 3+ Raiders in it?

    There has always been 1 or 2 meta picks since the game released, PK, Warlord, Prior, Conq, the list goes on.

    Glad is meta ?

    From what came this statment ? In 4s Glad only good area is Ganking.

    He is a bad midder, bad anti ganker and at best average in group fight.

    You cant even compare him with LB who is shinning in everything usefull in 4s.

    From competitive players and competitions. You're right, it's all about his gank.

    I'm not sure if "meta" came across as a stronger statement than I meant, but I meant "he's not a strange or surprising pick."

    This is pre-buff data where he was indeed in a state of needing buffs.

    Currently I see Glad super often in Dominion, even stacked alot. He is a FOTM, hence bringing his "toestab does 20dmg and CC's while feeding non-existent revenge" issue into the forefront. Now that his reflex guard is normalized, his attacks sped up, and his recoveries are good, his toestab needs a proper fix. Revenge for the bash AND revenge for the damage dealt, same as you'd see from any other bash with it's confirmed follow up. Glad's toestab doesn't play by the rules...

    Being meta doesn't mean they have to be exceptionally designed or even good at many things. As it's been numerous times in the past you often only need one good thing about you to be a top meta pick. Gladiator ganks are stupidly oppressive and he has some of the highest OOS punishes in the game atm.

    Then explain why 90% of my matchups are Glad? He did need tweaks but his toe stab is absurd. It is WAY to fast to dodge on reaction. Even if you manage to dodge it, there is literally no follow up you can do afterwards unless you have a dodge attack. In ganks, it feeds no revenge gain, and you cant parry it, even if you parried someone else in the gank, you just stand there for a second while everyone wails on you with heavies. You can literally mash the dodge button when your oos when getting up and still cant dodge it half the time.
