I can see some outrage coming in this news...
Hopefully not though!
He does have a great sig ability, but those are supposed to be useful anyways. Just trying to understand how Kabam is claiming Obsidian Cull is doing crazy amounts of damage when my stark spidey is doing more damage throughout the entire fight and not just for a few seconds
If Kabam said Angela does more damage than Sparky (this is a simple example, not saying this is true), you might initially think they were crazy. But it might be that the reason this is true (again: just hypothetically) is that across all players that play both champions most players don't get great damage out of Sparky because they aren't skilled enough to maximize his poise charges or worse, maybe straight up die while trying. Meanwhile practically everyone who plays Angela might be getting better than average damage from her buffs, even when she's played basically without any special tactics at all.
When a game operator says something is far above average, it may not be because their best case is better than everyone else's best case. Sometimes it is because their worst case is better than everyone else's worst case, or it might be something difficult to see because it is difficult to predict how all players play a game. I don't know why Cull was targeted, but some scenario like this is the most likely reason.
If, in my hypothetical above, Angela was performing better than Sparky on average, how would you prove it except by showing the players all of the performance reports the game generates, including the precise way the game measures different kinds of performance and in what kind of aggregates? And most game operators aren't willing to share that information, as it is not only proprietary in many cases but also provides details about the game implementation they don't always want made public.
Doesn’t seem like Kabam wants to tell us the changes and to communicate with us about them.
We will have information to share before the Month is up.
