As this thread is locked I couldn't reply to the whole punting situation.
viewtopic.php?f=8&t=16507

Would it be possible to add a portal below that abyss (similar to the portals we had during a live event) that teleports you back to your spawn point?

It would still allow punts into the abyss but would negate the heavy impact it currently has to from being gone for the whole sc to only missing maybe 10-20 seconds of action.

The other option is obviously to put another invisible wall... that can work as well.

Londo will come up with a good solution soon.

for removing 10 sec spam kobs/chosen super punt you mean right? BG/IB should not suffer this fate for such bad designed tactics.

IB punt is also 10 seconds for the record... so are the BO and SM AoE punts. The 10s kobs and chosen punts require a tactic. Otherwise they are only on a 20 second cooldown and barely punt people out of guard range.

depends what type of scenario EC will be:

1) if open to all/12v12 - let everything happen (though 12v12 seems crowded as hell in this map);
2) if prem v prem, put up walls

Nope I'm in for removing them all from the game. IB/BG/CH/KotBS. They create alot of problem with terrain.
Make IB/BG punt be something like knocks away target and disable guard if it's up. As for CH/Kotbs they don't need more tools in their arsenal tbh. They can completly change this tactic do nothing while equiped and they still be the best tanks in the game.

Would be nice actually if Chosen/KOTBS didn't have long-range punts and only IB/BG did =D
