What is your objective here? Do you want to win your matches, or do you want to go ahead and start nerfing jobs? Because I prefer to find out how to win. Because frequently (not always), when the discussion goes to "nerf this job"- then the people who want a job nerfed then move on to the next target, and the cycle of nerfs and buffs goes on and on. In any case- it won't help you right now.

No one is forcing you to use the same composition. I didn't say that. I've been in fights where we beat teams that *should* have beat us because they had the "meta" jobs- but they didn't. I suggested shot-calling, because you seem to have come up against them often enough to have learned their tactics- if you can't understand why that should help you- then I agree, something sounds very wrong, that premade is playing better than you, and they deserve to win.
You are blaming me, because you're assuming/implying that the only reason why we don't beat them is because we aren't trying hard enough, or that I'm not shot-calling. Suggesting it as a solution implies that would fix it, which wouldn't. I know their strat, it's the DRK runs in with 6 healers covering him, pulls everyone in, and then the ASTs all nuke everyone. The only solution is to Guard and that's not always available. You can't outheal the damage as it's happening. How would shot-calling fix that? Say "don't go there, you'll die"? What if that's the objective? You have to understand that this enemy team doesn't play normally because they can always win. They don't scurry around and try to flank or pinch, they just run in and kill everyone because that specific comp lets them.

My objective is I want match outcome to be based in skill and not whether one party has DRKs and ASTs in large numbers all grouping together. And that last bit is a joke, and after reading that I would be surprised if you sometimes took part in that kind of behaviour. Everyone who has played against them hates it because there's no chance to win no matter what. Get your head out of their asses and realize this.
