With low TTK now, his tactical is redundant. People just die before they even get overheated or it just doesn't end up doing anything in the fight.
His tactical is really inconsistent at locking on to people
Nerf his ult because giving a team-wide speed boost was apparently OP, yet now they release Axle who can basically keep her whole team zooming even more because it's only a tactical
The Hemlock is basically stronger than any sling weapon (Rampage/Devo), Prowler is the only decent one now
Literally every other Assault character has some sort movement built into their passive or tactical. Ballistic only gets it during his ult. Most of the game he feels like a sitting duck trying to keep up with the rest of the roster, most of whom have some kind of built-in movement tac/passive.
Crypto and Gibby literally move faster than Ballistic...
Can't even change/remove optics from your sling weapons when it upgrades from the ult. No, I don't want to use a 2x scope on a Rampage/Devo when I'm pushing close quarters fights
The Ash, Alter, Ballistic meta was like 2 years ago, Ash and Ballistic were nerfed into the ground, and they're still bad.
Ballistic mostly revolves around his gunplay yet the game keeps moving more and more towards abilities rather than raw gunplay so Ballistic barely adds any value to the team now
Why does Respawn keep some legends left in the dust for so long?
Maybe he's due for a rework? A buff at least...
