    A few months or maybe a year after release I bet

    Idk. I started playing more in 2019, so I wasn't around for Quake's release

    She was considered the best since few months after her release.
    Though very few players were aware of that. Her popularity increased dramatically throughout Act6 release.
    In my opinion, both Quake and Ghost need to be rebalanced, for the game’s health.
    I’m not talking about direct nerfs, I’m talking about side nerfing through content.
    Future content should include True Strike and Armor Break nodes more frequently, in order to regulate the use of those two, if not at whole quests at least on some paths.

    I feel like people that want champs like Quake nerfed don’t have her/aren’t skilled with her.

    I personally like how Kabam has left her alone but introduced Champs like Stryfe who have countering mechanics. Balance them through future champs that counter them rather than design content to counter specific champs.

    Why not designing content to counter specific champs, to avoid direct nerfs, if these champs are way too overpowered?
    You disagree with the fact that these two champs are a tier of their own?
    There is something called game balance.

    She has dominated since she entered the game. I was forced to learn quake when I started taking AW more seriously and I realized that I needed her to make 6.4 easier so I learned her when 6.4 dropped and haven't looked back since.

    Ever since they banned people for using her well

    Why would they do that? Ban somebody for playing a character properly?

    Long enough. It's time for the nerf hammer!

    Haven't you been on record saying she sucks? Why nerf a champion who's bad?

    I can use her if I need to just fine. I choose not to bc she's broken and incredibly cheap. Same reason I don't use Corvus in AQ at all bc I refuse to cheese my way through an entire map timing out just to be cheap and lazy. You're delusional if you think things like that are actually good for the game. All it does is make it even harder to devs to properly tune content when they have to be taken into account.
    hahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahah
    Far from a pro but I can get through what I need 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Not much else to do in game these days but learn something new. Tigra is the other project which is going far worse 🤣
