Allowing Steak basically only means that he can get to mid faster. He can't however use it to escape, move from new point to another fast or use the mobility to gain a good position in a skirmish. GRUs were way too OP which allowed all of the previous things mentioned. Steak however is just a tool to get to mid (as fast as medic about). It allows a new mid tactic and maybe pub scene will think there are more useful classes in 6s, but I really don't think it allows 24/7 heavy (except maybe viaduct). Heavy is mainly a problem in lower levels anyway, because focus firing isn't up to par. Also, throwing the steak for a medic makes him happy :)

[...] Well it's great that you enjoy playing against heavies so much, but most people find it pretty boring.

God forbid we see some meta changing in 6v6. It's incredible that we are still rejecting practically all unlocks that might break the stale walls of this mode.

Allow the direct hit instead.

[...] i've never seen any decent team run heavy to mid on viaduct (except for epsilon during the demo nerf but that doesn't count)

and Viaduct

I kinda agree, your team has to be really shit if you can't focus down a heavy. It's basically a free-pick.

I'm not going to say I'm in favor of it or not although I'm the admin that invested the most into playing heavy. But I want to make you guys be aware of the bigger picture: Look at the pro's and cons of the consumable itself, and then the meta at mid / 1st / 2nd. Will it stalemate mid? will the other team be forced to run BSS heavy as well? will the opponents be forced to have a sniper?
