In your case, as your ex-team mate I have to say that I disagree.

Thank you for safety smile, and it is true I used to be far to hyper aggressive, but I have (finally) learnt to play smarter. I also became pocket, as it helped me train myself to play passive while protecting my medic.

One other thing you fail to realize that it’s not only about getting kills with the equalizer, it’s about positioning. You see a solly fall back without equalizer and you can somewhat estimate where he is. Add an equalizer to that equation (c wat i did tharr trolol) and you have no real way of knowing where the bugger went, especially if you’ve got a few guys down so you can’t really secure all flanks.

Are you saying it is OP, because in the Seasons I have played and all the PCW’s, sollys have had a bigger role to play in the game, but not one that is over powering, scouts and demo’s still usually outscore sollys.

Also you seem to think it works the same way as crits, it does not allow a bad player to get kill on a good one, the equaliser is a movement tool and nothing else, you have to be very lucky to get kills with it. Also are you suggesting that there is any solly in Div 5 up that can’t preform the rollouts on all maps? If you are you are misguided, the equaliser allows both sollys to be buffed on mid and the back it is an alternative role out it neither here nor there.

It does not ‘reward’ failure, more it lessens the impact. Instead of being picked you can SOMETIMES escape with it, but this requires your medic to stop healing other targets, or for the solly to drop out of the fight, or even for his team to pull back. It onyl rewards failure if you get a kill with it, and then if my medic got picked like that, i would blame myself not the equaliser.

Lessens the impact of failure goes against the definition of competitive play, hence it is not balanced. That doesn’t mean it’s overpowered. There is a difference.

I would say D5 soldiers don’t do the rollouts perfectly and consistently every single time. This is true up to high divs. If the equaliser stops even one rj failure or gives 50 more hp than a manual rollout, then it has a negative impact competitively.

So a player who skillful uses the item to has to outplay the opponent is now the worse player. Awesome.

Jumping/moving poorly and getting into a position that you would not be able to get out of without running at nearly medic speed because you can’t rocketjump (too low on health) is not using an item skillfully.

Also why am having to argue against like 5 people at once, it is getting hard to keep track. Also I can’t finish my book :((
