just pointing out that both of your poll options are crap and dont fix the current main balance issue, namely that LSM suck. Buffing Orks would just make them trounce SM even more and nerfing Eldar would just make them crap against all other factions except SM (since they would still suck against Chaos and Ork)
Why I didn't vote in my own poll, basically. I mean I don't play any one faction specifically, I play as and against Eldar, I know that it's not as simple as "eldar op" (but that won't stop me from playing Devil's advocate for the "eldar op" crowd for a laugh, or as a springboard into "is TTK in a good spot?") Of course, you're touching on another topic in that it's currently hard to tell if LSM are objectively weak or if they're just flooded with nooblets
lsm is chaos but chaos got more exclusive good stuff. so that makes sm weak i Think its sm that needs buffing for things to even out
They need to check clangs, melee animations AND their speed, and whatever causes Eldar to randomly one hit KO me as non-scorpion classes from front melee.
I personally wouldn't like to see TTK rise for any of the races, it's not a problem for heavy weapons or melee but if you play as a tactical class it already takes a long time and a lot of accurate shots to bring down some opponents. Higher TTK would just increase melee spam. As for whether LSM are objectively weaker, I personally think they are. I cannot think of a single area where they have an edge on the other factions, they're either equivalent or worse.
We don't need to assume something that is actually true. Eldar possess fast firing weapons + their insane mobility and melee dominance, that's a lot for one faction.
