wow my thread has exploded.

i knew my post would bring out the fanboys. rallying to defend SE's decision.

but it was still a bad decision.

Remember the auto block patch? I remember reading a massive amount of threads and posts saying "ZOMG AUTO BLOCK IS GONNA BE AWESOME YAY" and like 1 or 2 posts saying it was a nerf, the guys that said it was got flamed hardcore.

guess what folks...IT WAS A NERF

This is pretty much the same thing again.

Putting the best shield in the game in a GC that is out of reach of most players was a stupid move on SE's part.

How many times do I have to say it, all you people saying higher block mitigation is better are fools. All your block mitigation is useless IF YOU NEVER BLOCK IN THE FIRST PLACE.
