They wouldn’t even have to jump away, just jump upwards and let the rest of your team and the pocket in midair shoot him. Potential for huge airshots though :D

First, you’re still theorycrafting.
Second, from what testing’s been done, it doesn’t look like it’s going to turn out the way you’re fearing, at least not on most maps.
Third, not every team’s going to run it, and you certainly don’t have to run it yourself.

Try it for S16, if it turns out shit (and we’re reasonably confident the people having a bad time were just playing shit), either shit in the way you’re predicting or in some other way, then we’ll ban it again. :v

please don’t

can’t argue with that

Whoah there, your team can do exactly the same thing don’t forget, each team’s pocket and medic will end up half a map away from each other, avoiding the gunboating solly doing three or four 15 health RJ’s and my god it’ll be messy and shit to watch and dull to play imo.

I wanna be in the action, clutch healing my demo from 4 health, not hiding 8 miles away just in case a QF medic and pocket suddenly appear in my face.

Dodging spam and scouts is a HUGE part of the fun for me playing medic, just jumping away whenever we like is gonna slow down the game a load and be boring, at least for me anyway.

Why would you go hide miles away when you can just kill them if they jump on you?
You can still dodge spam and scouts if you use quick fix, can’t you? And why would you jump away against scout and get fucked over, while you can just kill it?

Yet to see valid argument WHY it should be banned.

They can jump away after you über and come into you when your über has faded. That’s why allowing QF is stupid IMO.

1) Kill the rest of the team with uber (or any number of other solutions, some of which I proposed in the post you quoted).
2) See previous posts about theorycrafting being bullshit. Logs, screens, demos and videos first, words after.

Edit:

so if it turns out shit and op it will ruin the season yay

Literally the only thing anyone’s said in this thread that comes close to being a valid argument against allowing these weapons for season 16.

Imagine, you have über and the other team has über. The other team is using the QF you’re using the medigun. You pop in on them and they jump out, wait 8 seconds come back in and rape you. Now tell me QF is balanced.

It’s like you’re not even trying. Both ubers fade. You have full buffs, they have half. Kill whole team. Medic jumps away again? Kill rest of team, then kill combo. Whole team jumps away? Take point. :v

Edit: Also, logs/demo/video/something showing you not playing shit and still getting owned by QF plz.

Both übers don’t fade, read what I said, they don’t pop until your über fade. Also they can have more buff hå in total because of using the QF.

Yes on some level you could say it’s easier but, you are easy(er) to kill while qf uber, unlike with normal uber.
