Kate Bishop Rebalance?

Was wondering if we’re close to an update on this? She looks great for the next BGs node , but I’ve been putting off the r4 until the rebalance news. Most likely she won’t change but given the lack of structure in the game lately, nothing would surprise me.

Can’t even imagine what “bug” will be “fixed” to ruin her.
Other than that I’m also still eagerly waiting and hoping for a Viv tune up.
Trust me, I play her daily.
And she does not even come close to get rebalanced in my eyes.
That's just what I'm predicting atm.
I have a r4 sig 100.
I'm sure @Kabam Miike would prefer to not get punched in the face over stuff the developers "knew" would effect these champs and not mention it in their balance update. But it's becoming a habit.
I'm personally waiting on the viv balance update.
Zemo/root was not a rebalancing, though, so holding off on his rank-up until then would not have changed anything.
Giving people compensation or RDTs is only something they do as a PR exercise - they're under no obligation to do so.
There have been many times champs have been changed without warning. It's happened before, and it will happen again - particularly in the event of unintentional rotations that allow you to easily keep the opponent pinned/power locked with essentially zero chance of escape.
Some have been big, some smaller. Some have been 'bugs', some have been unintended abilities that came from unusual animations/hitboxes, or abilities that synergised in a particular way.
She-Hulk had an ability to Heavy chain that was unintentional, and taken away
Once upon a time, Drax used to counter Evade with his double-medium, and was ranked up as a Mordo counter
Most analogous to the recent Root changes to Kraven/Zemo, Gwenpool used to have a 100% bleed chance on her Heavy that meant following an SP2, she could keep any non-bleed-immune opponent in the corner with 100% uptime on Enervate and spam Heavy attacks forever.
So let's be clear: Kabam can and will change any champion at any time. They'll particularly do this in situations that enable champions to trivialise content with little or no skill (like the Gwenpool Heavy spam, or the Zemo Lock).
Kate has been bugged on her Sp2 since release, so hoping that is minimally addressed but like Future Antman I’m now wondering if there are any bugs we didn’t even know about
“This isn’t rebalancing Kate….
But if I can call attention to Trello buried down in the list, we decided passive Cold Snaps can’t exist in the game anymore.
This isn’t a Kate rebalancing.. just fixing our intent. Everyone should be fine with that.”
Edit: Just tested this, her SP2 is applying just fine, whether perfect released or not. Am I missing something?
They'll find an unintended interaction down the line 4 months from now
While i R3 him to get use of the winter soldier relic and to boost my scorp i wont deny he is a bit Broken (aside of inmune champs)
Why almost all of character we are talking about are skill?
Im pretty sure th
Eyyoo
