To prevent alpha-strikes

And myself, Volund, Wayland, Nattfarinn repteat again and again: you can’t nerf the OP alpha-skils unless you nerf the unbalanced Panda forces.

As Volund has put it very coherently above and in many other posts, alpha-striking by experienced players is hiding the underlying imbalance in this game, which is caused as much by vast numbers of overpowered Pandas (like Acid Chirons) as it is by OP Skill combos.

But an argument that says you must keep the OP Skill combos because that’s the only way of surviving the OP Panda maps is both ignoring and misunderstanding the central point of the argument. We have to get rid of BOTH to properly balance this game: Nerf everything

Frankly, it’s Mutually Assured Destruction: “They have the power to destroy us 10 times over, so we need the power to destroy them 10 times over.” How about we all just de-escalate things so that each side only has the power to destroy the other 1 time over and see how that works?
