Orks haven't been the low man on the totem pole for some time now. They have some things that underperform, and some things that overperform. People just tend to cherry pick which parts to prove their argument either way. The point is, these nerfs are incredibly minor, and the orks will survive them easily.
Orks at best are third, but I still believe Eldar are superior. Its hard to say since almost every single game is only against LSM, but the few games I do get against eldar are exactly the same as they used to be. with Eldar having ridiculous TTK, hyper long range power swords, and untouchable vehicles.
Just shoot the race with the smallest profile that also naturally moves the fastest, all while being the race with the largest hitboxes in the game? Ya "just shoot them"
Well considering all our main guns have high RoF and large ammo supplies as well as better damage falloff than the eldar...yes just shoot them.
Aside from da Plasma Deffgun! It chews frew ammo like it chews frew da gitz i aimz it at. An it only comes wiv two undred and fifty. (Lots.) shots. Wen attackin' a point. Or defendin' (Witch is jus' attakin' in da uver direcshun!) I can use da inishul shots and me reload. If it's a really 'ard fight, I can end up totally usin da reload too, leaving clubbing da gits wivvit me only opshun! Do, as a Goff i can't say dats totally a bad fing.
