So, I hadn't played Clash in quite a long time. I enjoy the smaller gametypes much more, Skirmish, Salvage, Doubles. I decided to play a few games of Clash today and all I gotta say is.....what the -blam!-? I LITERALLY did not die to a single weapon other than shotguns. Even after all these nerfs, people are still just running around using ONLY shotguns? You would think that they would learn how to use a different weapon by this point, or at least stop complaining about the nerfs when it's literally the only weapon they use. 3 games, 18 players, not a single death by any weapon besides a shotgun. It was atrocious. It was like watching a bunch of toddlers running around with a toy that they didn't quite know how to use. Waiting for a primary-only gametype to bring some skill and strategy to this game <3.
EDIT: Since some people seem to have trouble reading, let me clarify....I ended up playing 8 games (Check my Human Titan), went an overall 1.96 K/D over the course of those 8 games. Nowhere did I say I died a lot to those shotguns, nowhere did I say I was getting owned or couldn't kill them, so please, get your facts straight before you comment saying things like "you're the one who lacks skill if you couldn't kill them". I'm simply pointing out that Crucible has turned into a bunch of newbs running around with shotguns trying to get no-skill kills. Do your homework before you make yourself look ignorant as shit.

Before this nerf I was strictly a Suros and corrective measure user. The middle slot was irrelevant. After the nerf, I cant return to my glory games. No more 36-5. I was so damn lost I didn't know how to adapt. I tried everything, even the god damn thorn (pre nerf I hated HCs, fusions and shotguns). Finally I was like -blam!- it and I switched to universal remote. It was okay. I went and bought a dead orbit shotgun and yeah now I'm a hiding-around-the-corner-tracker-stalking-shotgun-camping scrub. What else can I do bro they nerfed my gun to shit. Everyone was running around with shotguns so I had to adapt to survive. Now I finally know what a buckshot bruiser medal is lol
