And they nurfed IS to the ground by making their dmg to 12. How would OST would feel if they've been told that grens are now dealing 3/4 dmg, because they are dominating 3v3 & 4v4.
I don't have a clear stat to see the actual WR of the UTT2 sadly tho.
The nerf was from 16 damage to 14 damage with accuracy adjustment, so their DPS stayed the same only the snipe part was removed. So your analogy with grens is wrong. And they not only dominated 3v3/4v4 but also was cheesed to spam infantry sections, not buy weapon upgrades and snipe models left and right with a massive blob that was never meant to happen.
This is the actual feeling that I got from this forum. They just hate the faction itself, that they don't care about the balance.
Hate for the British faction is well justified tho. It was such an abomination at the release and it took several patches to bring them to their current kind-of underpowered state. There are massive bad things about their design and Relic is simply
not allowing the balance team to fix those by making them more similar to other factions.
EDIT : Such as IS not having snares,Vickers killing stuff so fast that it can't do its actual job of suppressing, UC carrier being virtually uncounterable for 1-3 minutes, emplacements still being allowed to brace and be built in the blink of an eye etc.
Even then, the faction is super tedious to play against in any team game even though they are slightly underpowered because the extra player covers the weaknesses of the British roster and you are left to deal with still retarded emplacements.
