Odin is misunderstood

Odin hasn't been buffed or nerfed for ages. Hot take the Odin isn't as broken as everyone says genuinely nrg brawk makes it looks broken (not saying its balance). A lot of pros can use the Odin we even had crashies use the Odin in the grand final too and didnt have the same impact compared to brawk. I'm pretty sure brawk has just adapted his play style around the Odin (he has shown he can shoot on different wepons). Like brawk has shown how he has to play differently compared to others when he plays with Odin compared to his other guns.

“Odin merchants” I didn’t know other teams couldn’t use it

Same reason why G2 haters were calling them "tejo merchants", just because your team isn't good with tejo doesn't mean that other teams who use him are going to be merchants

brawk is probably the best sheriff player in champs, some of the shots he hits are nasty

in my opinion, this is like saying yoru is not broken bc great players like aspas or kk didn't take the time to learn how to use him properly and get experience on him. the odin has been broken for a long time just like yoru has, but no one fully realized till this year.

I get what you are saying but the problem is that the difference between a agent and a gun is to big like i get in rank and pro play you see how sometimes it just seems unfair but in rank is mostly due to bad decisions. Brawk shows how he has to shape his play style on how he is taking duels. Not trying to be rude because I kinda agree with you because if you practice a agent or gun more then others wouldn't you be better in the situation but that's the whole point trying to improve to be better than the other player to utilise the stuff you are given. When everyone sees this then adapts it wouldn't be a big as problem how people portrays it.

I can agree with this but I don't even think the odin needs to be nerfed too heavily. I would reduce bullet count and make it a little more expensive, which seems reasonable to me given it's only 300 more than a rifle rn with 4 times the bullets with high fire rate and high pen. Should be closer in price to the op than a rifle, or at least midway, no?

I would only choose 1 of the nerf you listed if you do more its basically giving the chamber nerf treatment

I think being able to buy odin on 2nd round is absurd so if I had to pick one, I would do the price increase

skuba said that brawk spent hours in practice learning odin lineups and other ways to find value with it

not everything has to be cool snappy kills with a vandal, if the odin makes your gameplan easier then use it, and if you don’t wanna use it then find a counter, otherwise just lose
