Lower mine duration to decrease clutter?

What is the point of nerfing mines, if 90% of gameplay is playing with/against mortar spammers?

The mine is one of the few alternatives, which makes the game more interesting.

 

Reach higher and you will understand, it's much worst than mortar since you dont know which one is friendly and which isn't

 

You just described the advantage of this mechanic

You won't be able to turn off your brain and just spam mortars. Think about it.

 

The point is you only need basically 2 players with mines to force players down a small area & significantly hurt their movement, and any more than that can block off every pathway to your team allowing nobody in or out. I think you'll understand what I mean once you get to nightmare . Or watch the bae watch tournament on YouTube.
Also, having mines doesn't really decrease firepower seeing as one mine can do 4k+ damage, and they can be thrown so far into the enemy team.

Besides, I don't think this is a completely op strategy, maybe it is idk, but the game just becomes dull and boring when players on BOTH teams scatter mines everywhere and everyone is cramped it small areas

 

There aren't many matches that are full of mines, but I quite enjoy them.
Having to play different strategies keeps the game interesting.

 

Bro....

That’s the thing with mines, you have to move and not stay put. And i have seen really big mine clutters and never really mattered. The most effective mining is to throw 1 or 2 in an unexpected place, so they’ll do dmg

 

My b lol. Well clutters are much more noticeable on speeder I think; we may as well be shooters
