DanceNumberDoes anyone else think valve isn't stupid and will likely have some class/weapon restrictions? Like we already know its 6v6 and 9v9 so we know they are looking closely at how we play.
I can't anticipate either A) them not restricting certain things or B) them releasing a MASSIVE balancing patch for weapons for matchmaking.
I highly doubt we're going to be seeing "3 bonk scouts healed by 2 quickfix medics" or other crazy shit.
I 100% seriously do believe that Valve is naive enough to not restrict classes and weapons at all. enigma said that they said they were not going to restrict classes iirc and going by how Valve deals with overpowered weapons in general I believe they will just leave them in and then eventually nerf them either way too much to the point where they are unusable (see Tomislav, CSGO Deagle, Baby Face's Blaster) or nowhere near enough (see Tec 9, Pomson, Gunslinger). I think they will either leave the Loose Cannon in or make it completely unusable.
DanceNumberEven though valve wants us to use all their classes and weapons they also know how to maintain and balance a great competitive game (ie: dota 2, CSGO)
CSGO has been not at all balanced at almost all points in its lifecycle and from what I hear from DOTA2 players that game isn't well balanced either (although it might just be dota players bitching way too much)
