Why do Pros sometimes use Blitz instead of Blackbeard?
BIG CLARIFICATION, since apparently I have to make these things abundantly clear before asking a simple question. I am not slandering pro player decisions. I am not slamming Blitz. I am asking to expand my knowledge.
With that out of the way, I used to think Blitz wasn't all that good, because of wonky shield hit boxes and the inconsistency of his flash beyond extremely close distance, but this year I saw a TON of play with him in Pro play. *So obviously I am missing something.* When it comes to disrupting defender positioning, I thought BB and his grenades could accomplish the same goal with a teammate in tow. Course I then considered the fact that a lot of pro play is done on LAN, which probably makes shields more consistent.
So what's the true answer here? And was I wrong about Cav being bad too? XD
