"Balance" is super difficult AND whether you succeed or not can leave the game feeling stale. The pros will always boil down to a few comps with a slight edge unless the maps or gamemodes are hugely forcing.

Biggest disconnect between the devs and playerbase imo is that the devs are trying to make the game balanced, whereas the players want the game to feel fresh. They're not the same thing.

Most successful games throw new/changing shit at players constantly so their squirrel brains can't keep up. Even cynical moves to disrupt balance for the sake of change have made other top titles very fun for a short while.

Players want the game to go back to how it was lmao not really wanting it fresh

I mean there was literally mountains of people complaining about how stale the game felt during dive. Like that was the most common complaint. That despite how well the game was balanced, the game was stale for people.

And it’s worse because players *think* they want the game balanced

Bingo. What they really want is just a select number of heroes to just never be playable or in the game at all. Totally balanced!

Even more reason that ban's need to be implemented in a exciting/fun way. Simple and effective way to help balance the game at all levels, add strategy/complexity, etc.

bans would make it less balanced at least from past experiences people just used them to stop the counters for the main strategies
