First to clarify I am no pro and therefore have much to learn. That also being said I do not have the authorization too say my opinion is awesome and yours sucks so please take it with a grain of salt. Now on to your regularly scheduled post
Let’s play a game(Saw Reference of the Day) shall we? If you can guess the unit that uses the voice line in the title you get the gratification of winning a fake contest. If you don’t do anything or get it wrong you’ll have to deal with me correcting you(Just Kidding). Que the jeopardy music.

Ok, it’s the mantis. If you didn’t read my last post mantis have some pretty funny voice lines. But that’s not the point of this post. It’s to bring awareness to a problem. Who here actually plays and mains Johnson outside of TFF(Terminus FireFight cause he’s really good in that with his free barricades)? Maybe there’s one special snowflake but other than that there’s probably no one and that’s the issue. He’s in a bad spot right now and is in need of some sort of buff. With Johnson his leader power’s are meh except for the bunker early-game but it loses it’s value after mid-game ends and late-game begins. The mantis are just flat out weak and the Colossus is underwhelming. While it looks cool and has lots of range the thing is like a scorpion with a worse DPS, slightly better against vehicles, and a worse “Y” ability. Yes, it has the range but it doesn’t have any extra line of sight making it’s range about as average as a marines. And they suffer the ill disease named death charge. Where something has lots of range but when told to attack something it doesn’t use it’s range, instead it just waddles up to it and gives it a hug. And as we all know colossus aren’t good in close range since they can’t concentrate fire for more than two seconds. Knowing this you’d think the “Y” ability would be something like a super long range thing to complement their range but nope, it’s a “Y” ability that requires them to get right up to the enemy, their least effective range! Just, why. These units are the most coolest things in the game, big, bulky, and menacing. But in reality it’s a children’s toy rated “E” for everyone. His hero’s alright I guess. I mean he’s better than others but mediocre at best. His EMP Mac blast isn’t too bad but that’s all I really see in him for his leader powers. Please tell me I missed something. Because if I didn’t there is definitely something wrong.
However, I don’t play Johnson often so I could have easily missed something so feel free to leave you opinion below or how much you want to kick me all the way to china for picking out how bad Johnson is right now. Also I’m sorry to all of you (nonexistent)Johnson mains but I honestly wasn’t kidding about how I think there are no Johnson mains, outside of TFF. If you actually play him often and find success let me know where I went wrong with deciphering this leader.
