Newbs today won't remember...

(MarsRover) #21

When Phantom with 1px left on his shield could tank a whole damn airstrike.

(LifeupOmega) #22

Chapel first before the redesign.
Dome when the objective pickup was from a train.

(Dysfnal) #23

I don’t remember that stuff, I haven’t even heard of it, that’s ancient, no?

(KattiValk) #24

Frag grenades that actually punched through people.

On that note, Dazzler.

(Captain_Forward) #25

Invisible EV.

[spoiler]Kinda missed that :’( [/spoiler]

(PastrySama) #26

Proxy with 2 eyes.

(b8rpwn1337) #27

Jump-sniping.

(Szab95) #28

Working boosters… oh wait

(MilkyBear) #29

How hard it is to earn credit at the beginning.

(N8o) #30

Instant revives
Phantom pre-nerf
Instant gib snipers
Small nuke-radius frag grenades
The Shotgun Buff Patch
The days when burst rifles weren’t great

That Nader was awesome, faster, stronger, more lethal… Today, Nader is a sad joke of what she used to be.

She is still great for her original purpose of pub-stomping and Marty-trolling! SM41 feels so strong, even now.

when Fragger had 150hp. Rip that 10hp nerf. (don’t even think it was that bad but still…)

(XavienX) #34

Camping Vassilis sitting in th-- oh wait, holdon. That will never cease to exist.

(Xenithos) #35

Coming into a match to find 6 people playing auras, the objective not getting done, and them all spamming heal-stations on a single tire. Yes, this really happened. And yes, the experience could hit several hundred thousand in just a few minutes.

Thank Goodness that’s gone.

(inscrutableShow) #36

When new players were hurled unceremoniously into combat with little to no idea what to do, and it was meant to be like that.

(Xenithos) #37

When Phantom never said Trick or Treat Mother *******, not that people miss when he never said this.

When Thunder’s flash bangs were hilariously ineffective in every way possible. (They’re finally useful!)

They won’t know about the sniping spot that used to exist on overground, they put a stupid brick in the way.

(Xenithos) #38

When Ranked was called Competitive. Or when it was played at all. :neutral:

I mean, it’s played, but like, more than 5 minutes to find a match sucks. 45 is terrible.
And what’s worse? No noob will likely ever get to feel the pain us Veterans did when we came across the 5 man team of elites and cobalts versus silvers and golds because of depressing matchmaking. The butt stomping that would occur for the next 30 minutes was just plain depressing.

(Black) #39

Back when you could set down a deployable, pick it up when it’s low on health, and set it back down.

(blufflord) #40
