Old Rocket Laces was better than the current buffied one
What changed:
-First and foremost, the huge cooldown nerf from 15s to 20s, that sort of nerf to a getaway gadget cripples its effectiveness at keeping Brock alive.
-Smaller explosion in exchange for a second one when landing. I feel like this trade off evens out, neutral change in balance.
-The jump being aimable now is a downgrade for me. It wouldn't change anything if not for the fact that the autoaim targets the closest enemy instead of the direction Brock is facing, which forces you to aim the gadget, nerfing the reactivity of the gadget.
-Buffie effect: Short speed boost after hitting an enemy with an explosion, pretty mid effect, not 100% useless but it's far from making up for the nerfs.
Hopefully they'll revert the autoaim change and buff the cooldown a bit.
