I had been under the impression that the vortex is an effective area denial/deathtrap sort of thing, until I used it in Supremacy. I would nova on some crests and guys would just walk/slide through it, get the crests, and move on. Then in Control I'd launch one in a choke point and guys just walk through it like it ain't no thang! Was the Vortex nerfed or something? Considering how deadly Aftermath is I'd expect more from my space magic...

Well the new artifact that grants the ability to resist more DOT makes it so you barely take any damage. The artifact wasn't designed for just the solar burns in crucible, apparently it also stops the vortex, solar, thorn and any other DOT in the game. This artifact is literally the biggest cock blocker ever created. I switched to lance nova bomb since it travels faster and farther.

The hell are you doing wasting a nova bomb to try and stop someone from getting a few crests? Why don't you just aim for the actual person trying to get the crest? I don't understand you people.

The blast radius on nova bomb is STUPID huge, dont rely on vortex to get you the kill if you couldnt with the nuke of a nova bomb, and its definitely not supposed to be used like a trap as you stated, its not a tether.
