VirulenceIn addition to shutting down Scouts, it denies explosive jumpers as well. In a game of mobility, it's zero fun.
I can understand this, but it can be destroyed relatively easy and isn't nearly as good at denying jumpers as, say, a regular Sentry or Heavy.
TerywjLet's not forget that even if you do quickly dispose of the mini right away, the Engineer can just build another because it's that convenient.
And then it gets destroyed while building for three seconds, or shortly after and the Engineer can't build another because of 0 metal. Convenient, but when an Engineer is under pressure, he has a tough time building another.
