Note : if you do not agree this is not objective fact. CONSTRUCTIVE discussion would be nice but this is vlr so if you're that goblin moded. 
I feel bad for whoever cares about you. Be useful to the discussion 
  1. Neon no longer can shoot while sliding
  2. Neon's slide duration is decreased from 0.6s to 0.5s (for context a jett dash is 0.45s)

I think stun radius should also be lowered? Fast lane duration lowered?

I mean stun radius can be lowered but it depends
The main gimmick is the slide shooting which breaks the entire concept of "precise gunplay"
Cuz even if stunned you can shoot a slower target
But stunned + moving + shooting target is impossible

ok, but this means that neon has no defence against anything while sliding, and she does not move fast enough or far enough to dodge most things like a jett dash.

Fast yes cuz its only a 0.05s difference between Neon and Jett now with Jett being slightly faster
Far i will concede cuz Jett does 11m Neon does 7m
But thats a 4m difference equalize at 9m mayb for balance sake
Also technically Jett does not have defenses while dashing. She only has cloudburst, Neon has fast lane and relay boly

neon slide and jett dash are used in completely different ways. jett dash is used to gain space and entry a site. neon slide is used to engage after gaining entry to a site. if you compare them, you will defeat the main use of neon slide.

My problem is Neon slide should not be an engagement tool because it fundamentally breaks the rule of Valorant of "precise gunplay"

Just remove the slide if you're not gonna be able to shoot bro, that's literally the only gimmick this agent has compared to other movement agents
the ability to shoot while using the movement ability but watered down by it being the slowest movement ability in the game, making it easier to kill a neon sliding compared to jett or raze flying

they should do a lore thing where she dies and then remove her from the game i think
