(This is only for strikers, nobody cares if guardians or recons use AT, let them be)
-As a striker if you hit below 7k damage for 2 games straight the next two games you will be allowed to use AT.
- If you hit below 10k damage for 2 games you will be allowed to AT Toggle for the next 2 games.
-This handicap lasts for the day and is negated after 10 hours.
-AT is otherwise banned, including in GvGs.

-Vitapods
- If your INVENTORY not your LOADOUT consists of a maximum mix of only 3* and 4* items and you have no heart trinkets you receive a +10 vita
-If solid 4* and some 5* gear you receive a +5 vita if you have no heart trinkets

-Subsequent movement speed (guards + recons)
-Damage Bonus (Guardians+ Strikers)
-Defense Bonus (Strikers + Recons)
These last for 30 seconds like in PvE; these power-ups occur if you die too fast//ect..

Oh my, you managed to have me

Oh my, you managed to have me raging... GG!

The AT part is bullshit and bullshit. Just ban AT ever and ever and that's all. Everyone will be ok with it if they are forced to and are not even aware of it.

And for the other parts it would be unfair for players who worked to make a proper lockdown set. It would be exactly the same as banning Trinkets and Uvs actually.

I'm only suggesting this

I'm only suggesting this because one of the GMs quoted "and its not as simple as removing AT altogether"

AT, UVs, Trinkets, Recon Footsteps, Easily spawncamped maps, Unboosting strikers walking same speed as recon and guardian, Recon Footsteps while invisible, Overpowered gear....

Whining about one unbalanced feature when there is so much wrong with PVP..........

This a bad idea, AT should be deleted from SK. People need to learn to get good without AT.

So what you're saying is that it's impossible to fake getting less than 7k, AT togglers are less garbage than other AT noobs, Guardians and recons can't be AT garbage, lack of hp trinks end in free hp and ppl would still get trinks?

Having AT behave like full inspect or just have custom lobbies are just better in all ways possible.

"and its not as simple as removing AT altogether"

Seems to me they were completely fine with just adding the clearly big misstake that shold be corrected now that nick's gone.

-If you hit 40+k damage and have 0 captures and your team loses, then you will get 1 week LD ban and you're allowed to use AT for that week.

@Theirilluisions

Ideally so, but we've already suggested that and they've done nothing about it
