Current metaI'm an average player from Gold/Plat with ambitions to reach the very top. I play builds that top players play on streams or take them from GodsOfPvp website. My experience is that there are builds which are very impactful and don't require a lot of knowledge or skill. There are players who just play a specific combo and have high impact in the game. There are also builds which can stall a node indefinitely and there seems to be no key, no knowledge and no amount of skill needed to possibly defeat them. Fundamental Issues A class build has more impact than skill of a player. There is not enough teamwork or synergy between classes in the game.Classes aren't complex enough and the fun of playing them is removed at the cost of balance (Blinding Powder nerf removed lots of potential for great and mindful plays; Swipe negatively impacted the most enjoyable Dagger/Pistol weapon set for Daredevil).A skilled player cannot shine and go for a plays that would make them recognizable. There is only one competitive game mode. I wish there was Capture the Flag. It would open up a whole new world of competitive experience.You can only solo or duo queue. A team of five cannot practice without going through too much hassle.The ability to communicate with players and to learn by understanding to their needs and your mistakes is limited to salty chat window.Note: I believe that wintrading in higher ranks would be less effective if the gameplay was more skillful.
