    [ WARNING: OPINION BASED]

    After I watched some videos on nightmare league in battle bay, I feel the most unfair item to play against is the tesla bolt, which stuns the ship and makes the stunned target unable to use any items, but they can still move, while the tesla bolt is bad early game because it has low stun time compared to cooldown, and the trainer that effects the item is the last trainer you unlock, but the trade off is that its very strong later in the higher leagues.... but is it too strong? look for yourself:

    If you see the video, the tesla bolt speeder was the last 1 standing, and it was a 3v1, but this speeder somehow was able to almost take them all out (I said almost, watch the end of the video) because of tesla bolt, the stun lasts so long that by the time it ends, the speeder was able to stun the opponent again after 2 seconds from the duration end, and it looks very broken to me, to be able to almost stunlock the same ship over and over, even tough if they hit the stunned ship it will remove the effect, they can just wait it out until the stun ends, then shoot, then stun again, I feel that needs to be nerf, and by nerf I mean they reduced the stun duration.

    I think that the ending of the debuff when the stunned ship gets shot gives the stunned ship the opportunity to fire and a speeder in the higher leagues has like 6000 hp but for example a carronade does 250 x 7 = 1750 damage... If the stunned ship is playing a defender to not die immediately from the speeder he could actually do it
    Also the Tesla bolt is very weak when it comes to team fights
    It is VERY strong in 1v1 and gives the user a big advantage, but not a guaranteed win
    But yeah, you're right, they should nerf this thing

    Fun fact: When I started playing the game I thought this would immobilize the target so that it couldn't move + disable weapons and the other stuff
