You never know what a patch might bring, it might make all your dreams come true, but it’s more likely that it will crush them. Some Medium Builds experienced that feeling exactly with the latest patch of The Finals.
Medium Builds Concerned Over the Nerfs in the Latest Patch
According to some players, it’s no secret that the Light Builds have been favored by the devs this entire Season. Skullkrax2001 stated: “I was hoping for at least a trade-off as a Medium. Light – 2 buffs and a nerf. Heavy – no buffs/nerfs. Medium – no buffs, only nerfs”.
Another player, No-Upstairs-7001, added: “Meanwhile over in medium land, already a class nobody plays gets nerfed in every way possible. I’d buff everything Medium has other than the turret. No class should have a gadget that nets you free kills without you earning them”.
Most players claim that the Light Builds are this Season’s meta and therefore they receive all the buffs. One Redditor, suffywuffy, explained: “The other classes being hit by nerfs and people swapping to the “meta” class for the season increases the number of lights on each game, and lights, especially in large numbers just aren’t fun to fight against for most people because the fights are initiated and finished in 2-3 seconds”.
The Medium Builds shared which weapons needed to receive a buff. Among them, the most talked about were the Dual Blades. One player, bunnybash, said: “Dual blade is the most fun weapon in the game right now, it’s insanely hard to use, but damn it’s satisfying to just slice up a Light”.
Not All of The Finals Players Think That the Mediums Are Endangered
Some of The Finals players claimed the Medium Builds didn’t really need any buffs in the latest patch. Ninjasakii noted: “Medium still feels balanced and good even with the nerfs. All weapons (except for Dual Blades and maybe Riot Shield) are fairly useful”.
Another player, Youre_so_goodlookin, suggested a probable theory. They said: “What if there is no perfect balance – it’s just a rotation of what’s “in” or “out” for a season or part thereof. Especially for certain maps that might be more favorable for a particular class over another”.
It’s almost impossible to please everyone, so sometimes you’ve got to take a nerf, and other times you’ll get a buff. We can’t predict what the future holds, but if the Lights were favored this Season, maybe the Mediums will be next Season? We’ll have to wait to find out. In the meantime, and this might sound unorthodox, why don’t you try other builds? It might make you realize that they all have their strong suits, as well as weak points. Who knows, you might even decide to switch. Enjoy the game.
