People have missed the point of the assassin update.

The whole point of the update was to diversify the menace of assassins and slow them down a bit so they couldn't one hit kill someone in a crowd without consequence. The fact that this flew over so many people's heads, people who will do nothing but assassin main until they become a withered husk and the stars grow cold and distant, that trying to comprehend this just hurts my fucking head.

You can't bullrush into fights anymore as an assassin, kill your mark and expect to live. You have to be more opportunistic and actually fucking cooperate with whatever tattered shreds of a team you have.
