    Yes and no. I like the idea of sub-optimal fun perks, that still require playing the game (progressing gens). At the same time I don't want it to become meta and nerfed needlessly, or even a Calm Spirit 'buff' where it actually gets nerfed. With many gen kick perks being nerfed, people are going to kick gens far less, so getting value with it is going to be even harder. The main problem is I can't think of a decent buff that wouldn't make it crazy. Maybe reward delayed explosions more? If it is activated in the final 10s maybe get an extra 1-2s of stun? That way it also encourages using it early in the hopes of getting that last second value, at the cost of losing a quick bomb on the next gen already prepped.

    It's a 3-second stun+ blind, that can be used multiple times per match, and that doesnt require you to go out of your way to obtain it, since repairing generators is something you're already going to be doing anyways.

    It really does not need a buff.

    It was fine before the change. It's a gimmicky perk that sees little use in a regular match anyway.

    When they initially changed it I was uncertain it was the right call but after the change it feels like there's a lot more thought that needs to go into using the perk rather than just blindly pressing the button each time it's ready and you hear a TR. I prefer the perk in its current state now and I find it to be very good regardless.

    I rarely see it but boy do I laugh my ass off when I do. I never run it but I always find it hilarious when someone else gets a blastmine off on a killer.

    It was fine as it was before the nerf. But if survivors have something nice we gotta nerf it, right?
