The funny thing about GTTC is its a great zerg tool given to the realm that does nothing but zerg. Should you really be encouraging it?

A white lion change is nice, but I hope its not a total nerf but a way to help them be more productive in WBs. Lately there has been multiple Buffs to destro and nerfs to order. As an order player its really discouraging to see patches where 2 destro classes get huge buffs with no changes to order.

Of course I will wait to see the next patch and I trust you will do the right thing (especially buffing the SM since its both our mains ;) )

Order or death.

How on earth, pulling 6+ people at the same second into your face when you're not mobile is safer, then pulling one, by one, by one, whilst you have 30% increased speed?

I played choppa and had fun with that skill, it's amazing.
come on its such a common place orvr strategy :roll:

you pull them from a safer distance into your warband to bomb without have to be rialint on melee hits being so near to the enemy front-line and in turn is no where near as likely to be interrupted

Comparing Choppa and Engie pull is laughable. One is an mdps with charge and snare root immnuity. You can see an Engie pull coming from a mile away and in the zerg they cant keep up with the melee train.

gttc is far easier to spot considering the animation

But my point is that its the worst of the destro pulls and thats for both mass and single target pulls destro has better options

Depends om meta.

Currently the game is just about the side with the most players running in a blob from bo to bo till siege. Gttc is a great "hoover" skill for the blob vanguard to suck in order players for the rest of the zerg to murder.

Pretty sure he means pulling them through the door while it is down and they have LoS, probably because that's the thing that actually happens. I see 0 reasons to think that is not an intended use of this ability.

Hmm well that might often happen with developpers that play the game (and in some cases I heavily thought this happend with wl) but for me it's the worst that can happen to be honest. It buffs classes from a subjective perspektive and sometimes classes therefore get buffed for unvalid reasons. No matter if you think you are being unbiased if you play it yourself especially as main favorite class let someone else deal with the class. I mean that's how I see it but of course you are free to disagree.
