That "rebalance" to the Blitz better not be a nerf. There is nothing wrong with the bot currently imo. Phantom and Ao Jun could use a bit of a nerf, I do not think many would disagree with that but who knows with stupid Pix.

Ao Jun and Avenger will definitely get nerfed.
Ravana, Avalanche, Tsar and Thermite will get some buff, because they are not making enough money for Pix.
Don't know about Phantom and Blitz... maybe they will get some "adjustment" to favor certain playstyle.

Are the Shredder and Pulsar root mechanics changing to fill a gauge instead of chance to root? If so, then it doesn't impact me that much as I run more than one on a bot. The only one that would suffer would be my Ares as I only have 2 Pulsars on that, but since I run that as more of a MR harasser, it's still ok.

Ao Jun, Phantom and Blitz most likely getting nerfed. Ravana buff seems likely (needs more speed). Not sure about Pulsars and Shredder but it doesn't sound good. Tsar prob getting buffed—see mostly plasma on Ming, so my guess anyway.

Phantom and Ao Jun probably getting buffs... On the Devstream, they said the cool down for both would be lengthened and AJs speed reduced.

Anyone hear what happened with the Taran rapid-fire buff they had in the TS a couple weeks ago?
Wonder what the Overdrive Unit module does...

Nerf to Ao Jun will be an indirect buff to Ao Ming because of how underperforming that particular Titan is right now. My last match the red maxxed AM only had 18 kills because of those pesky AJs...

They are going to buff Ao Jun and nerf Thermites. Read the post above by Browncoats4ever. Other than that I have not heard or seen descriptive notes yet, so we just need to wait n see. Test Server is not definitive, but that is not why we post this information. It is just to keep eyes and ears on current developments that may potentially go live.

My rebalance predictions:
Blitz - may get a nerf to it's shield ability so that players are forced to buy it's upcoming Pilot to "buff" it.
Ravana - buff. It hasn't been as dominate as a new bot Pix introduces usually is, so Pix is probably thinking of buffing it so Ravana players can get some spoon fed wins.
Ao Jun - probably (and hopefully) a nerf. It has been king of the skies long enough and Pix probably doesn't want it to be a Titan counter for much longer anymore. I personally dislike that bot, so some bias from me.
Phantom - hopefully a nerf, but not sure. Not sure why Pix would buff it seeing it's already a top meta bot and doesn't need any extra incentive to be bought. Need to wait and see what they do.
Avenger - with a heavy heart, I think it's going to be a nerf. Considering how cheap and powerful it is, I'm surprised Pix had left it alone of this long. But now that they have a replacement (Nucleon) ready for release, it makes sense for them to need the competition so players can gobble the new weapon up more readily.
Avalanche - no idea, haven't run into this weapon too often. Might get a buff to boost sales.
Thermite - forgot this weapon even existed. Probably a buff to boost sales.
Tsar - buff so they can make the Mings even more broken.
Pulsar/Shredders - hopefully they get the same mechanic change as shoguns. I like that change.

People thinking what's the big deal with the nerfs. Remember they only nerf if too many people use something like the Ao Jun, avenger, etc. They buff when not enough people use it like the thermite.
Your not going to be happy when they nerf the cryo weapons that too many people have. You have been warned.

YES! Finally. I really hope this means the reign of the Ao Jun, Avengers and Phantom are done. I have a Phantom, I just build an Ao Jun, but I don't care receiving a hit as long as they lower in numbers. I'm tired of hiding in the dumpster while the rich kids of the neighborhood play in the street with their expensive toys.

If they nerf the Avenger damage, I hope they at least increase the accuracy to match it with Pun and Pun T.

No, I also hate them but my levels of frustration against the Ao Ming are no the same as the Ao Jun, which they are over a year. Besides, dropping some leagues makes most of the Plasmings disappear. Meanwhile Ao Jun are everywhere no matter what league.

Even before reading the clip from Robbie, I predicted a buff for Blitz. There’s a Legendary Pilot coming in the next Ops right? Buffed Blitz = more Ops Pass sales.
I hope the rest of the rewards are good. If that Legendary Pilot comes with the crazy DR skill, I might just cash in my 500 chip.

But no Leech nerf? Leech is a lot more bearable now that the shotguns have been reworked and Titans chew them up. But if we go by the logic of "played a lot = nerfed, barely played = buff" they're still one of the most played bots in high Champs. The Legend League report for iOS and Android showed that it's the second-most played bot, pretty much neck-and-neck with Ao Jun. I get it though, Ao Jun is a counter to Titans, and we can't have that!
I'm ok with this. Even though I run an Ao Jun, it's sole purpose for existing is killing other AJs.
