If you want to make that case, why should other Subclasses be able to give their team a free round win? Golden Gun is 3 shots, easily turned into 3 kills and a win. You can't do anything against a half-decent Gunslinger in Golden Gun, so would you still not deserve a second chance if that killed you?
Even at that, self-res isn't massively difficult to counter. Every other Super barring Ward of Dawn has at least very good chance of beating it 1 on 1 (in any other engagement, your argument is invalid) if not being a guaranteed kill and revive-sniping accounts for a good chunk of the kills in ToO.

Edited by Wicked: 3/5/2016 1:22:54 PMOther subclasses do not give their teams a win, with the exception of Stormcaller maybe because that shit is ridiculous. Even a very good Gunslinger can still miss and has no armor or protection of any kind. FoH misses all the time. Nova Bomb is difficult to use and can miss. Blink and Titan Skate can counter Arc Blade. HoS is easy to evade after the nerf. Nightstalker can miss and you can still shoot and team shot while tethered. So tell me, if I kill you and your team with Golden Gun and I've taken damage during the engagement, what's to stop you from reviving yourself and just casually tossing a Firebolt grenade my way? Or spamming Firebolts at whoever is left on my team while we're weak and practically unarmed? When you're dead, you're dead unless your teammate revives you (which is crap anyway in a competitive game mode). If you want to use Radiance while you're alive go for it. But you don't get a free life after you fuçk up. And people like you who defend Fireborn bat like that's use entire super. It's not. Stop using self rez as a crutch.

Edited by Hawpy: 3/5/2016 7:16:29 PMGood job, you pointed out flaws with other Supers and deliberately neglected to talk about Radiance's flaws. No one else gets a free second life, but you say that as if Fireborn grants you abilities of other Supers. We don't have insta-kill bullets with near infinite range, we don't have tracking proximity detonation hammers, we can't deal massive damage to a target and seal off an area. In a Super vs Super scenario, Radiance is among the weakest. If you're losing to Radiance when you don't have your Super, you're an idiot for complaining. Then again, you [i]are[/i] an idiot for saying the other Supers don't win rounds. Ward of Dawn gives you a huge advantage for capturing points or guaranteeing heavy ammo, Golden Gun and Stormtrance can effortlessly wipe teams, FoH and Nova Bomb can deny heavy ammo and seal a win in doing so. You say that Nightstalker can miss and then be killed. Newsflash! So can every other Super!

You're special. I'm not going to argue with you. You're absolutely right about everything you said.
