    I know what you guys will be thinking now, 'ffs another swapper nerf thread'...

    Well it is, so get ready.

    What I'm suggesting is that swapper has a percentage chance of swapping a person.
    As it stands there are 3 circumstances in which swapper is used:
    1. Swapper trapping at mid, and causing misery.
    2. Swapping rushers out of the nexus and causing misery.
    3. Void swap trapping farmers, and causing a greater amount of misery.

    So with a percentage chance of swapping this would mean that if the swap is unsuccessful the countdown will still apply and they will have to wait the appropriate time period to have another go. This would be more fair in my view, as it introduces a success rate, which is currently 100% for swappers.

    Scorpios have a much harder time at getting armour, not only do they need to predict the position of an enemy, but they must also be well off enough to overpower them, and the countdown is a pain when you don't scorp anyone.
    This leads on to my second suggestion of....

    Alternatively, removing the ability to spam the swapper music disc item. So swappers can only click the disc once, and then the countdown applies again. This would make the kit more god damn 'skillfull'. In my opinion swapper is too laid back and easy in terms of the way kits generally are. Having a one click then countdown would cause it to be more similar to other kits, like scorpio, or even pyro (pyro's have a firestorm ability which regardless of whether enemies are around or not can be activated, then the countdown applies).

    Please kindly do not disregard this topic and pay attention to the changes I suggested, then continue to spew hate at me :)

    Thanks for reading.

    swappers should only use for switch palyers locations not for void (If use it Player should be Shamed and be killed every time and insult him in the face and dishonor more) and traps (same as void) this is the rules only swap players not use for any kind a bs

    hmm,this would be a very very big nerf.
    this will sort of ruin the kit in some aspects.
    This kit would just become a mini version of scorpio.
    I agree the kit might need a nerf down the line.but i do not think such a nerf would be good for swapper.

    Imo, we can delete the kit with that nerf.

    I'd suggest that people are swapped randomly who are near or make the swap range shorter plus swapping through blocks should be fixed.

    Edit: i meant the cooldown

    Swapping through blocks is so annoying :(
    If enemy team has swapper def in Canyon and EssixDam, you can't mine nexus...

    Also, if they have some swapper, you can't rush with solo because they will swap you to near void many times.

    I like the nerf idea, however the full cool down would be a bit to much but making it a few seconds is actually a good idea. We will test around with this suggestion.

    Do agree with this one. I hate getting trapped in a void trap when rushing the nexus. Especially when "mining the nexus.
