Where is your source?I told you exactly where to find it.
No link then? As i thought.
It would be asinine to assume that a fountain of wisdom such as Tom should want to "nerf" a character on the grounds of "bullshit" as you claimed.
Clearly it has to have impact on gameplay and a change of skill/power/technique is needed on some characters for balance's sake.
We cannot have improper balance , where some characters are just too good and perform so much better than others, watch the Kung Lao-trend in the latest PDP-tournament for example as proof of that.
It is a good thing that some characters, Kung Lao AND Smoke for example, are toned down a tad, while others may need improvement (like Baraka, Sheeva etc).
