It’s not so much the synergy that’s broken, it’s Sabretooth himself. His furies are not supposed to go beyond a cap of 15 but he has been bypassing that cap by ending a fight with an s3 since his introduction.
This hasn’t meant much in the past because you eventually run out of charges but now you can bypass that by ending every fight with an s3 for a minimum of 40% base attack (more if you use certain synergies, masteries, play styles etc).
People say this takes money to achieve or that it isn’t practical and while this can be true it is not universally true. I can take my overflow revives into the abyss and build up +600% attack using an s3 revive strat, with practice and a better strat I can increase that same over flow to beyond +1200%attack that can carry through the Abyss while increasing every fight. That also doesn’t account for the revives inside my free 4 hour crystals.
If Kabam thinks 6 months is enough time for Abyss to be out before people start making a joke of it I’m game but something tells me this was all over looked.
To add on, ST has tons of utility with his KM synergy that gives him AAR. It’s not like he’s a potato.
Actually, I just wanted to know the community's opinion after watching the 110 fury Sabretooth video Seatin put out )
In that video he emphasizes he spent 40+ Revives and even more Potions on the early fights to get that many Furies, reaching that level of Damage is WILDLY Impractical and in normal Quests there's No Way you could get anywhere near that amount of Furies and Damage. So no I doubt it'd be nerf because in normal scenarios it just lets his Damage be more sustainable and allows you to get a couple more Furies, and like others have mentioned he doesn't have much Utility besides the Killmonger Synergy so it's not like he's Unbalanced.
The synergy does make sabertooth extremely powerful but if you want to ramp him up practically you have to spend units on revives-this makes it so kabam makes more money, so why would they nerf it?
Typical hype job done to sell crystals. Sorry I have been down this road before. Seen the CCP hype champs and synergies.....champ shows up in crystals and then of course we later find out this was not intentional. The old slight of hand trick.

You can easily save 10 revives for free.
At that point you will be on fight #2 with 28-30 Furies.
Then you can reach Maestro in under one hour and have 55 Furies when you get there.
That's not ungodly expensive
