First of all if you are one of these people who DO NOT complain about bladedancers kudos to you. This thread isn't about you.
As a level 29 hunter who tends to stay on top of the leader boards in crucible I really can say that bladedancers are not OP. Yes it -blam!-ing sucks when you get killed by one, yes we get a little aggravated. I understand the frustration, "ohh I just got a 10 kill streak, *slice* and then I got -blam!-ed by a blade dancer." Their supers are not op in any way shape or form. It takes skill to even obtain 2 or more kills. I switched to golden gun a long time ago but when I was running blade dancer I can not tell you how many times I lunged and shot off the map, or lunged directly into TLW spraying at my head, or let me tell you how many times I lunged to get smacked by shoulder charge. Point being, there are ways to shut blade dancers down. When a blade dancer comes darting at you, MOVE, strafe, jump. Get the hell out of the way. I shut down blade dancers 99% of the time without panic supers. Most of the people who say blade dancers are op are people who think they can only get 1 kill out of their nova bombs or foh. Used correctly you can wipe teams with them things. Hunters just strategically use their supers. And when we get nova bombed we don't come to the forums and complain, when we kill a sunsinger and they resurrect we don't come here and complain. We take the death and call it a day. This is not a thread about me crying, this is a thread to let all of you guys know that blade dancers are not "mashing the melee button and getting kills" it doesn't have an auto target. If you want to get technical nova bomb and foh is mashing two buttons and getting kills. The only sub class that takes any skill at all really is gunslingers. We have to aim and shoot. So before you get pissed, hop on the forums, and cry about that one time a bladedancer killed you, make a hunter and try it out. Guarantee you won't be begging for them to be nerfed then.
P.s. invisibility is actually highly visible, just pay attention.
Now let the flaming begin.
