I don't play Lockdown but I could try to help. What if you tell them "well you do spam the movement and shield keys"

I've voiced my dislike for
I've voiced my dislike for the hammer, but it's not something you should QQ about in game. Heart pendants are borderline p2w though, if I'm in a match with allot of those people, I'll usually just not sign up until the next match starts, that way I get split away from them.

If you're going to play Lockdown, there is something you need to accept, embrace, and work with:
The game is NOT balanced
Because you can bring your own gear into each match, people will always have better or worse gear. Some equipment works better than others, and some things work terribly. People complain CONSTANTLY about "Oh the Flourish is so OP!" or "the Hammer is so OP!" or "Auto-Aim is so OP!" and all that stuff.
If you want to enjoy PvP, watch what other people do, mimic them, and see what works for you. You'll hear stories about people going hipster, running around without trinkets, or UVs, or Skolver, and they'll be lamenting the "clone armies" and blah blah blah. My suggestion is to just ignore those people and do what you find works for you to win. The main reason why you play Lockdown is to give you another series of accomplishments beyond smashing Vanaduke over and over and over and over and OVER AGAIN. Don't limit yourself just to be hipster, you'll just frustrate yourself.

"Don't limit yourself just to be hipster"

@Orangeo
Penta Pendants are super easy to get though (3kCE for two?). If you're choosing to opt out of using them, you're the cause of your own misfortune, bro.

Yes, it is completely my
Yes, it is completely my fault for not burrning CE for double health. Shame, shame on me. What was I thinking, trying to get through lockdown without having twice the health of all my enemies? I mean, it's not like you can win without pendants, amirite?
Rest my case.

Everyone who plays T3
Everyone who plays T3 Lockdown should have a full set of 5* gear. If you don't, then you haven't geared properly - it's like playing Lockdown without 5* weapons or armor; sure you can do it, but really? All legitimate complaints about gear in Lockdown involve UVs, not Heart Pendants. Whether or not Heart Pendants make the game less fun, however, is a different matter entirely.
So I play recon gunner in Lockdown because I like guns and I like recon. I also do it without gun switching because it is a pain to do and I'd really rather not work myself up into a sweat and injure my finger muscles every time I play Lockdown. I do reasonably well, but the depressing thing is that unless I pick up gun switching and/or switch to striker I'll never be able to seriously compete with people who are actually good. I don't feel this is worth accepting as "deal with it" because how fun Lockdown actually is is a question of game design, and that game design isn't particularly inspired.

"All legitimate complaints
"All legitimate complaints about gear in Lockdown involve UVs, not Heart Pendants. Whether or not Heart Pendants make the game less fun, however, is a different matter entirely."
This isn't a bad argument. You are expected to have the maximum star rating, unless your preferred gear doesn't go that far, but I don't really think that you're expected to have heart pendants in the same manner. When it comes to people who are under-geared, there's usually a room of full 5* people and some random joe who's still half teir two. However, when it comes to pendants, the majority don't usually have them, at most it's generally half.
Strikers! Stop spamming your boost!
Recons! Stop spamming your invisibility cloak!
Guardians! Stop spamming your shield!
Whiners! Stop spamming your complaining!
That is all~
Oh yeah, one more thing... stop spamming LD in general and you might get over yourselves. So shallow for goodness sake.
